Cro Cop training for knockouts
Mirko now trains every day day. After his loss to JDS he decided to go train under the world famous Muay Thai expert Ivan Hypollite of Vos Gym.
"After all this time I realize that you can not prepare well without real camp and an authoritative coach. That's the biggest mistake in my career. I was too lazy to go train at an elite camp. For example Hyppolite kills me on the pads and then I spar with three partners in a six minute round."
- But didn't you do that in your own gym with your croatian sparring partners?
"I did, but then I couldn't spar to KO my sparring partner because those were mostly people who were training with me as a favor to me.
In Amsterdam it's a battle for life and death. I go for the KO and so does my sparring partner. In the future I think I will do most of my preparation in Amsterdam"
