Cro Cop vs Bob Sapp is one of the most epic size vs skill fights of all time. Why? Because the history behind their match is as historic as it comes. Coming off 2 epic victories against Ernesto Hoost, the greatest heavyweight kickboxer of all time, Bob Sapp was just running through MMA fighters and kickboxers. No one wanted to fight him after he beat Ernesto Hoost twice, only Cro Cop stepped up to the challenge. Cro Cop said he didn't have a game plan, but he clearly showed a brilliant game plan here. Do you know what strategy he used to defeat this monster fighter?

Everyone i knew who watched fights was a big fan of Crocop. His high kicks went beyond technique to an art form. I just wish Sapp took the game more seriously too. He was mostly taking paychecks and didn't care after a certain point anymore. Would be fun as hell to see how the best fighters back then dealt with a serious Sapp going berserk on them.

Not sure if it's my impression or MMA fans don't give as much respect to past legends as boxing fans do. Guys like Crocop deserve much more love. Dude was legit scary, so much so everyone always said the "right leg hospital, left leg cemetary" back then. BTW that ice bath clip must be him trolling. He was known as a massive joker and prankster as you can see from the Mauro clip. hahah

It's not MMA fans it's casual UFC fans. old Pride FC fans like me adore all the old legends even if they've lost their luster in modern times. they're all still legends to me. Muay Thai too, for instance Kaoklai has lost to Tyrone Sponge and Joe Schilling, if you look those fights up on KZfaq, in the comments, casual Muay Thai fans dump on Kaoklai for being a Thai boxer losing to farangs. (you'll also see me there waging verbal war against those assholes for dumping on the legendary giant slayer) casual fans don't get that every strike landed, blocked or not, hurts and takes a just a little bit. legendary fighters have had legendary fights most likely meaning they fought dangerous people and took some hits that would kill the armchair fighter. It adds up overtime.

To fight a much bigger opponent you need a degree of power that will keep him off you. Hoost didnt have that, Cro Cop did. 9:11 is a perfect example. Cro Cop is considered one of the strongest kickboxers of all time, he shoves Bob away here from the clinch, Ernesto couldnt and got smothered. Also against a monster like Sapp you have to focus on evading for the first two minutes, he will tire quickly and be a totally different fighter after his first efforts.

I will admit that Cro Cop was one of the most exciting fighters to watch of all time. It was always stand-up action and not so much of the holding and on the ground action. And the single devastating strike could happen at any time, when least expected. Usually some kind of strike versus some kind of submission.

Never thought much of SAPP.. It speaks poorly of the MMA rules that he was not disqualified for the back-of-the-head shots and raging on people even after they're down and out. He should have been suspended. In contrast, Mirko was a class act. Skill, power, speed, no trash talking, and he strived to play by the rules. He and Fedor were exemplary of how to win and remain civil.

I think what really cemented cro cop’s legacy was how he ended. Obviously he fought and beat some of the best in the world in his prime, but eventually the heavyweight division caught up to those guys in skill, and he got absolutely run out of the octagon a couple times. Most guys hang it up at that point. Not him. He went back to the drawing board. He came back, avenged his loss to gonzaga in brutal fashion, wooped king mo for his first loss as a heavyweight en route to a rizin grand prix championship, and ended avenging his loss to big country despite doctors forbidding him to fight. This guy was truly one of the greats. Not just for his accomplishments in his prime in pride, but for withstanding the test of time and a career spanning multiple eras of the heavyweight division.

Sapp is still so lovable. And Cro-Cop is still a killer.

I think Ironic is the word Used to describe his last ufc fight he got nailed with his very own signature head kick buy Gonzaga and it was a brutal and upsetting to be waiting for it to happen and it does and it happens to him instead😳. I love crocop he is my fave MMA fighter next to randy Couture I wish they had a rematch between crocop and Gonzaga. CROCOP FOR PRESIDENT!!

The strategy is "The plan is No plan" but in fact "No plan is the plan" and that biggest guy was so self confident to win and he underestimated the scariest guy.

People who are bigger tend to have less fear and awareness, and it always gets them humbled sooner or later. I was submitting people almost twice my size as a teenager playing in people's backyards and even submitting some with my hands and kicks. Now I am even better if I had a sparring partner. There is a LOT that goes into fighting, not just skill and size alone.

So sad that K1 is no more. They had some enormous monsters - Sapp, Hong Mann Choi, Schilt... Just don't get those enormous size discrepancies in modern fights... Hoost also almost got Sapp - staggered him for a long period with a thigh kick but was too cautious and failed to take advantage...

This really shows that the size vs skill debate has way more nuance than people think.

1:30 Simple, Crocop shattered Bob Sapp's eye socket. While Bob have a reputation to give up early, this time he really was hurt.

Love Cro Cop. Actual elite special forces - No fear in the cage, .But probably a real fun prankster hanging with his family and friends. I would love to chill with him. One day go training at his gym
