Official: ‘Cro Cop’ vs. Alistair Overeem
According to the Croation News site Dnevnik.hr, Mirko Filipović will be fighting September 23rd against Alistair Overeem. DREAM has confirmed the report.
"For ‘Cro Cop’ this will be his first fight after five months and a victory against Mizuno. He has fully recuperated from knee surgery that caused him to miss two fights this summer.
However, Cro Cop is ready and confident of victory. Previously, only to the New TV, said that his objectives are to capture the belt in Dream, and hopefully a possible fight in December - with Fedor."
This is definitely good news for 'Cro Cop' fans as many rumors of late from other fighters stated he was unwilling to take several fights offered to him in DREAM.
