****RARE**** Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic vs Mark Hunt part 4 HQ w/Pre And Post Fight

Another legendary K-1 fight (from the K-1 Nagoya 2002 event, the 2002-03-03) between the reigning 2001 champion Mark Hunt and Mirko Cro Cop. Two completely different styles, physique and personas. At that time, Mark Hunt, the surprising (and probably surprised) K-1 champion was becoming more and more popular and was coming off a several wins in a row (including one against LeBanner), but his laziness seemed to take over and he kept gaining weight every fight, mainly fat; plus, his chin proved to be human after all after a knock-down by Nakasako, a mediocre Japanese fighter with more losses than wins.

Yet, most people at that time ranked him higher than Mirko and thought the latter would lose, especially since he had just lost to McDonald (and then beat Yanagisawa, but that isn't a very relevant win), and people thought Mirko's body was one of his weakness (due to Hoost's win in the K-1 GP 1999), while body punches were one of Hunt's strength.

This fight proved that Mirko wasn't just a one hit wonder and helped him come back with several wins against high ranked K-1 fighters; it also cemented Mark Hunt's reputation as one of the best chin in fight sports period, after he got up from a fully powered left high kick to the head.

This material is in HQ and has both the pre-fight introduction and post-fight interviews. Enjoy.

***I do not own this material, it is a K-1 video which hasn't been released in any countries other than Japan (I don't live there). I do not intend to sell it and I am uploading this to share it with other fans who probably wouldn't have ever gotten the chance to watch it otherwise, as a pure act of information and free speech. I thank them for such footages and if there's a problem, please contact me. Thank you.***

[subslament]

Fucking amazing upload.. Where did you get this video from? Can you help me out with the name of the DVD or where I can order it?

I love behind the scenes K1 stuff.

Also I truly believe if Mirko had gone into the 2003 WGP he had a HUGE chance at winning...

I mean he beat the future 2003 winner in Remy
