[smokinlefthook]

GAYEST SONG EVER

[perseenhaistaja]

They look so young!What you do in life,echoes an eternity.For all fighters out there.

[AttackTheGasStation1]

@mostovelasquez Moby "Porcelain"

[Keezzel]

you gotta love it, the fast counters, fast kicking and punching. Absolutely great!

Aaaaaand ofcourse.... Jerome's haircut!!

[vendettaoran]

@mostovelasquez moby

[wildyracing1]

Both're so young back there, Mirko looks skinny, but back in the days he had heart and determination to press forward. Le Banner's always been a big factor in K-1, he's muscular, possess technique and strength, but never managed to become a champion. If both fight now, which is possible since Cro Cop declared his return to kickboxing, Jerome probably would win by KO, I think that way, because Mirko's chin and power of will has declined rapidly lately. Still pretty entertaining fight it would be!

[VerguenzaAjena00]

Those were the times when this sport had its respect, before soulless americans raped it

[GaeasBlessing]

@VerguenzaAjena00 How did soulless Americans rape this sport?

[Loomr]

@VerguenzaAjena00 Yeah which soulless american kickboxer exactly are you referring to?

[shatterhandeve]

jerome le boner

[lakdess72]

what's the name of the song ?

[resistantangel2306]

good fight

[77kraxx]

two great champion

[MMREWAZ]

Song?

[Keylooh]

lijepa muzika

[soky355]

song,Moby



[Dynoman9398]

Never mind about the name of the song xD

[Dynoman9398]

Can anybody tell me the name of the song please?

[MrNgnga]

Banner is a juicer, like pacroid

[frazeblood]

look how young they are

[junwhar]

cro cop before the world of steroid use.

[kidcornchip]

@junwhar

yeah because la banner didnt put 30 lbs of muscle mass on in the next 10 years or anything

[junwhar]

@kidcornchip le banner prolly on the roids too. My point is Mirko should have stayed and fought at 205 then he would not have been the smaller fighter all the time.

[Breakneckhydra1]

@junwhar

Hes 6ft 3in and weighs 230-240, hes bigger then fedor.

And yet fedor had no problem dominating the heavyweight division, explain that.

[DPE3926]

@Breakneckhydra1 Fedor is the best heavyweight fighter, there explained

[junwhar]

@Breakneckhydra1 Fedor had superior technique back in the day than everyone else and he is small and compact with great head movement. He was just more advanced and more all rounded than everyone back then. But these days where the sport has evolved and caught up with fedor now his size has been exposed it is his main weakness. Fedor should drop down to 205 as well. i could say more on this but we would be here all night.

[vexatuvex]

@junwhar I agree, Fedor could dominate at 205

[KevyyChase]

@kidcornchip *le banner have some respect with the fighters name and by the way 30 pounds in 10 years is totally normal...It's only 3 pound a year

[94uhart]

MICRO Cro Cop ^^ but so strong already !!

[jorgguts]

Mirko was 21 and Jerome was 23.... they were so young hahahaha

[1000Demons]

I'll say this: Even though he lost, Banner's still standing at the end of this, unlike a number of Cro Cop's opponents in his fight history.

[pryzed1]

Mayn they both look young as, Cro cop look's like he just got outta high school.

[Pefounet76]

1995

[pbcms13]

Whats up with the music

[TheFishingrulz]

jerome look like he is 50 pounds bigger

[Matu1]

At 13 seconds i swear he kicks him in the balls and he plays it off.. weird shit.

[exccc]

Those were some of the greatest fighters in K1 of all time...respect to both of them

[Qre1000]

@exccc Don't forget about Alexy Ignashov and Ernesto Hoost :)

[1789crazy]

@Qre1000 how about andy hug and peter aerts

[KeepYourHandup972]

@exccc

But none of them won the title

[mikenw1309]

[AttackTheGasStation1]

Geronimooooooooooooo !!!

[throttlehard]

Lesson learned: don't try to catch your opponent's kicks - pointless and will get you knocked down.

Good fight by Cro-cop!

[SerbianJudo]

@throttlehard 0:43 what the fuck are you talking about?

[wondeboy12]

I like how well lebanner took his loss, he looked just as happy as if he won.

[TheFishingrulz]

dum ass song to put to a fight !

[MatteJz]

nice one.....le banner is always fun to watch,

[John031989]

great song, horrible for this video...

[Kryptonitebe]

kudos for mirco. Jerome is freakin beast.

[schapadap]

for everyone wondering he was 21 in this fight

[ShinyShadowball]

Croatian swat is the best- thats why mirko is so good

[SWIFTSUCKS]

AH MAN, mirko is a kid all right he stood up against a huge lebanner(NOT AS huge as recent lebanner ) but still i believe lebanner won that fight. im such a mirko fan for life. WAR CROCOP

[stoopidn00b]

crocop is like 21 here... shit, he was a kid!

[MissTeenPregnancy]

stupidest music to put to this

[TheHallzySquad]

This is when he was pulling off all his moves

[AlinhoDarkSide]

Cro Cop supreme!

[Ruboyrap]

jaja

[RexBaselio]

Jerome Le Banner is a greater fighter and by far better person then Cro Cop. But then again the second is not that hard to achieve ...

[jordana8899]

Mikro Crap got his vagina fucked by this guy, over reem and by the great American: don frye

[rhinekhan]

[Eu50dollar]

[FuckinDago]

What's the name of the song playing in the background?

[BrokenBard]

@FuckinDago It says at the end of the video.

[antopolus]

I fucking love that left straight from crocop against the ropes!Makes me pumped!!!

[szechgr]

Ηδη ο Κροάτης αρχίζει να δείχνει την κλάση του... αν και νεαρός σε ηλικία στέκεται πολύ καλά απέναντι στον LE BANNER, με πολύ καλή ισορροπία και αντοχή στα χτυπήματα....μόνο στο στήσιμο του στο ρινγκ υστερεί λίγο...

[achillez88]

This is the kind of vid I love seeing...it shows the struggle between two talented fighters, one of which became the legend we all know. Nice song to go with it as well.

[schroberto]

how old is this?? they both look like teens!!

[gundam73]

...fuck!!! here Mirko is a baby.....

[mineshmphy]

cro cop is a legend , such a nice guy too , really honest n down to earth

[leka1622]

I just gotta ask man, what about this video makes you think Molby? Very odd choice of music.

[XxBromwynxX]

K for one that doesn't look like crocop AND crocop is NOT that tall ontop of that if crocop was still in his prime he would kick the shit outta just bout ne body.

[terrospark]

@XxBromwynxX not andy hug.

[iitachifries]

@XxBromwynxX if your serious, your a fucking dumbass

[XxBromwynxX]

@iitachifries whoa settle down there bud no need to be callin me names im just expressing opinion, yea i could be wrong, but no need to be startin something.

[iitachifries]

@XxBromwynxX Well really :P im pretty sure its him. Or its his clone, who by chance throws the exact same highkick ive grown to love

[XxBromwynxX]

@iitachifries ok you have a point there lol

[Amyas80s]

I wish Cro Cop fought at LHW he would have been a beast!

[zeroseveneight]

crocop was 6 years old

[respectwalk13]

my two favorite k-1 fighters

[daagt2]

this must have been epic live.

[kyl0f]

What a fagot song

[mimipipicaca]

both look so yooung...

[williambmx619]

Kickin is 4 pussys

[redblazerpea]

@williambmx619 why is it for pussies?

[bravoatacama]

what a fight! really great fighters... cro cop look young! xD

[FireProMMA]

strangely Cro Cop looks vaguely looks like a modern GSP in this fight. similar bodies and movement. spinning back kick, catching the leg and leading with the cross. perhaps I'm just really tired.

[Curatalo506]

@FireProMMA Does anybody ever not catch the kick and lead with a cross? Thats the most basic kickboxing technique you ever learn

[waldomarek]

indeed, crocop looks like a kid here and somewhat outweighed. seriously couldn't tell who would be the winner since both did a really nice job.

great manner they had as well, really cool fight!

[pbsells]

crocop was born with a natural snap in his kick.

[gravik36]

how old crokop here ? )) 20 ?

[lukhew]

mirko looks real young and smaller there

[moomyskim69]

Both are excllt fighter XD

Really niice fight XD

[capcaunuu]

crocop was so young, almost a kid...

[bcibibcibcpCB]

still je fought very well against the much heavier Le Banner.

[capcaunuu]

yeah, talent has no age

[TheManofgolf68]

@capcaunuu he 22

[kmaliful]

@capcaunuu He was  bigger than franck

[sheemsheem]

1:14 pretty fast spinning back kick..

[MrEdwin619]

mirko so much smaller

[martin1365]

go Jerome!

[viktorce1]

This is far from poetry. This is liafagreesin noskill fight. True figiwiiithll never challange for money. The vomments are quite bad only intreesting for the brainless public. But thats our world full of agression, closed in a ring. Try read some books and thhteeg real meaning of the fighters and why they do that for. Ofcorise not for glory in the ring.

[capcaunuu]

viktorce...stop quoting famous passages. Men have been fighting other men for tens of thousands of years... fighting is written in our blood, and so is the desire to win. Winning a fight has been a reason of pride long before us humans learned to speak, so think again...why do they do that for?

[HowAboutSomeTruth1]

No skill? the fuck you on about you illiterate retard?

[dadude821]

poetry in motion.

[TheAzv3]

Loved seeing Mirko throw roundhouse, which he hasn't done for some time...

[ChuckNorriscool2]

Horrible song pic.

[Chopin742]

I was thinking. These are two of my favorite fighters. Why are they hitting one another?

[albaughrsx]

I like to see Mirco fight more in the UFC.  I only got to see him once in the UFC.

[SatanicalEve]

@albaughrsx He will be fighting very soon. UFC Australia against Ben Rothwell on February 21st at UFC 110

[FilipeCzech1986]

21 y.o.

[durude]

le banner , good sportsman

[brabuconbrs]

no se que coño pinta esta musica en ste video no pega nada

[JohnWarren1]

I bet Mirco was in worse shape after that fight. He won out of the precision of his strikes. This was a very close fight and they are pretty damn close to even in my book.

[Jumok80]

mirko destroy him

[komine866]

nhl2337...yes they only met once...they were supposed to fight last year, I believe, but Mirko dislocated his elbow training and the fight was canceled and never happened after that...

[MaxZUber]

Two legends goin at it, crazy.

[whoisfettel]

Damn Mirko looks so young here.

It's so heart-wrenching to see the mighty fall.

[atemlos2585]

what's happened to him?

[whoisfettel]

He isn't the same fighter he used to be and will probably retire. I was being a little over-dramatic though.

[ANT1MATTR]

woah thats a YOUNG cro-cop

[81CCCP90]

what year was this, cro cop looks in his mid-late twenties?

very exciting match

[13dutchdennis13]

the song is moby

[ThaGangastaBoss]

[ThePsychoReturns]

Moby - Porcelain

[zankOne]

[gerryboy101]

this is when they were kids. both are awesome fighters. le banner is one of the worlds greatest warriors

[blackeye240]

lebanner has some nice kicks for someone who primarily uses boxing

and it was a great fight

[sovietamerican2]

hes a kickboxer that uses punches more then anything.

[blackeye240]

hes also got a pro boxing record of 5-0

[leonedigibilterra]

Both very,very, very STRONG!!!

[Mo8787]

both very young

[Pefounet76]

I saw this fight. Lebanner clearly won! But nice fight.

[TheMKCATL]

I agree Cro cop is a great fighter but Lebanner just took everything he threw at him what lost him the fight was a knock down.

[anac0nda]

Crop cop is young in this Video. I bet this is when Crop cop started fighting :)

Crop cop deserved to win because he is alot smaller :) and can face up to Banner :)

[reppinbham]

this dude suck.. he lets his guard down way too much..

[shan960]

i think you should fight him than

[savonbra]

DOIS HEROIS

[undisputedAsskicker]

[nuskru]

[gjljhjb1]

[grimterran]

[QueensTV]

'Grimterran' it is both of them... it's a K-1 fight from '96. Mirko was fighting under his other nickname which is Tigar.

If this wasn't what you were referring too then nvm :)

[domy2222222]
