I still remember that text string that changed my life in my early days of lurking:

There's no shame in carrying a torch for vintage crocop.

Yes but shedding sapphires for said torch is.

He is the people's man.

If Big Nog can make a comeback and shock the world, I don't see any reason that Cro Cop can't either. I attributed part of his losses to adjusting to a new rules set and fighting in a cage, it seemed like a lot of Pride fighters had trouble adjusting when the crossover fights first started.

Here's hoping Dos Santos ends up on the wrong side of a hellacious liver kick.

I'm still waiting for Royce Gracie to make a comeback.

Have you seen Demian Maia fight? I think Royce may have been reincarnated before death.

Well, I took a look. I think Gracie was better. But I see what you mean.

I dunno, did Royce ever get knocked out in 20 seconds?

Nog's losses were a result of him being injured and ill, and he has a long history of being able to come back from adversity and still win. Crocop's losses were a result of him never being any good against people who aren't intimidated by his power, and he has a long history of never being able to turn a fight around once he's losing.
