Chaos in Sydney: Stitched Cro Cop may be out of UFC 110
Posted on February 19, 2010, 09:41 AM by Anton GurevichBritish website MMABay and numerous sources in Croatia report that Mirko Cro Cop suffered a severe cut above his eyeline during a sparring session with his teammate Sasa Mucnjak. According to the report Cro Cop required many stitches, but still refused to pull out of the fight against 10-5 Anthony Perosh.
The reports about Cro Cop's cut come just a few hours after his original opponent, former IFL Champion "Big Ben" Rothwell, had to pull out of the event due to illness. Ultimate Fighting Championship did not release a statement regarding the issue just yet, and it seems like the fight will go underway as usual.

Right after I read Rothwell was out....
well at least he's not pulling out.warrior
Go Tiger...He Speaks..Woody woods is the man
F*ck Kitty Cat Woods!
3 FIGHTERS THE WEEK OF THE FIGHT... yea right...
Dude
WTF
THESE FIGHTERS NEED TO BE MORE CAREFUL WHEN IT'S SO CLOSE TO THE EVENT
Shit happens
Wear head gear.
Dam injuries
Injuries are ****ing ufc up, so many great fights have been canceled because of injuries, so sad
Why so many fighters getting injured backstage? They like to listen to hip-hop and Chael Sonnen like to listen to country. We all know who the toughest guy back there is.
i was looking forward to see mirko and ben fighting , zzz ...
The UFC money machine is up to something, this is rediculous.
There goes that pay per view, I wont buy it now.
This is the only way fans can get back at the UFC is to let them know, we're sick of this crap. STRIKEFORCE FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cro Cop is still fighting, hes still on the card, left kick to the head is still gonna happen
Conspiracy theories are for idiots.
Why even say that Pony? Did you have a crappy day?
I hope so man, this was starting to look pretty bad.
Jesus! Big Nog, Velasquez, Bisping, Wand, Stevenson and Jardine are all still fighting. I love Cro Cop but even if he pulled out this PPV would still rule.
Oh boy, what tough luck! Did he get kicked in the head? LOL!
Maybe he thinks he can end it quickly ,and the cut won't matter.
thats ****ing awfull...
