A lot of MMA fans are considering this weekend’s UFC 137 event to be their last chance to see Mirko Cro Cop in action.
It makes sense, after all, since Cro Cop has lost his last two fights and has looked like a shell of his former self since he made his Octagon debut way back in 2007, but there is still a lot of sadness as we prepare to watch one of the greatest fighters of all time step away.
As much as fans want to see the former PRIDE legend walk away with a win on Saturday, Roy Nelson’s granite chin makes this a horrible matchup for Cro Cop, and it is highly possible that one of the greatest strikers of all time will go out on a loss, much like Chuck Liddell and Randy Couture before him.
But if Cro Cop were to return for another fight, who would be the perfect opponent for him to fight that would make for an exciting battle and still allow him to go out on top?
Here is the best possible final fights for 10 MMA legends who are nearing retirement.
