One of the most respected fighters in the history of combat sports, Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipoviu0107 is back.
The 43-year-old legend fighting out of Croatia will return to the ring on December 31 when he takes on another veteran in the form of 47-year-old “TK”, Tsuyoshi Kosaka.
Filipoviu0107 (35-11-2, 1NC) retired last December on one of the biggest highs imaginable. After winning four-straight in a two-year span, including a UFC return KO victory over Gabriel Gonzaga, Cro Cop closed out 2016 in RIZIN’s year-end grand-prix.
