After a successful and quite frankly dominating win over Roy ‘Big Country’ Nelson Saturday night in Winnipeg, Canada, Croatian Crippler caught up with Croatian-American UFC heavyweight Stipe Miocic at the post-fight press conference, as well as in his hotel room. UFC president Dana White alluded to Miocic moving into the top 10 of the heavyweight ranks after the fight. Do we have a contender on our hands?
In other UFC 161 news, Croatia’s Igor Pokrajac lost to Ryan Jimmo in their light heavyweight bout, via unanimous decision.

Fight Highlights
no you’re not, it’s very homoerotic
Am I the only one who thinks the vid at the hotel bed was just creepy?
@Mischko
Watch the fight again Stipe gets eye gouged bad by Struve and Stipe tries to get away so the ref will stop it for the eye guage. Miocic then slips on the mat and gets clocked. Ill tell you though ive been to almost everyone of his camps since he joined the ufc and because of that bullshit first loss he has gotten a lot better in every part of his game.
@ Dejan thanks man. I’m watching the Strupe fight with Stipe. First round he was perfect, and then let the guy come in on him in the second round. Grant you I’m not a fighter, but I’ve been a professional athlete and you always uses the opponents weaknesses to your advantage.
Maybe Crippler can comment on this, it seemed like Stipe played into Strupe’s hands in that second round and got in his reach before he he did any real damage.
In March Mark Hunt the Somoan, another Roy Nelson type of guy knocked him out.

The only reason I ask is the everyone has their strengths and weaknesses if there’s a rematch what should Stipe do differently>

@ Toni
the name ‘Stipe Miocic’… sounds like what type of name to you? Swedish? Hungarian? Maybe Icelandic…?
How am I supposed to tell that this guy is Croatian? I can’t see no Grb on his trunks.
any 1 else pay attention to Stipe’s entrance music, music title says it all, good choice..

@jack, if your after a family dog consider a AM staff or an american pit, pitbulls are the best family dogs, i grew up with pit’s & have always had 1, don’t believe for a second what the media says about them is true..
@Ivica
Thanks
@Misko:
Thanks for your time regarding the dog selection. You really know your craft.
@Denis,Ante K, McHrvat,TGC and Crippler:
Thanks for the site.
I choose not to use FB,Myspace, Twitter etc.
However, I check this site daily and enjoy reading everybody’s 2cents.
look at @jm trying to make the clip look gay, come on man, nothing wrong with a couple croats & crew sending out a few shout outs & celebrating a great victory in a hotel room with out any kurve around, nothing gay about that bro, it’s people who make comment’s as such that are confused with in..
Much respect out to Stipe for the post fight comments & respect to Crippler for posting it..
mi Hrvati, mi Hrvati, mi Hrvati !!
LOL at JM. He may be a contender for line of the year.
“i hope you guys went out and partied though rather than hang with 5 guys in one bed the rest of the night”
@ Jack
Get yourself a Croatian Shepherd. That dog is awesome, though you’ll have to check with Mishko on how family friendly that dog is.
congrats to stipe! seems like a stand up guy and great of him to do the interviews with cs and for crippler to get the inside info. best of luck to stipe going forward! i hope you guys went out and partied though rather than hang with 5 guys in one bed the rest of the night
Nice Work Stipe ! Happy Fathers Day to All ! KUP JE NAŠ !! Bog , Hrvati , Hajduk , i HNS !!!
I am in NJ and am willing to drive.
I have two children and am looking for a medium sized dog like a German Short Haired Pointer, Dalmatian, Vizsla etc.
The dog being healthy and family friendly are the biggest priorities.
From what I gather the Vizsla breed is a pretty solid family dog.
@Jack if you want email me your number at mark@knop.com versus messing up this thread.
@Jack sorry I missed it. Where are you located and what are you looking for, because within all breeds you get different traits, and how much do you want to spend?
FYI – With all dogs these days STAY away from the AKC show dog lines, they’re more prone to defects and they tend to be useless. You want one that’s been bred by working people that breed the dog for it’s intended use.
They use to be big time in Serbia, but if you’re in the U.S. they’ll ship you their crap. One of the guys in our club got a doberman before joining the club from Serbia and the dog isn’t bad, he’s just kind of retarded.
I’ll make some calls. But first and foremost, shipping costs money so let me know where you’re at, and you really want a WORKING dog breeder not a show line breeder.
@Mishko:
I posted a dog related question during a dying thread directed to you.
Anyway, what do you know about Vizsla dogs and can you recommend a breeder?
Man I’m jealous I bet the great energy after winning that fight must have been amazing.
Congrats to Stipe, his team and may the future go as planned.
Stipe seems like a solid dude. Keep up the great work Crippler!
I am not a UFC fan, but I read Nelson fought two fights within 7 weeks.
Is this normal?
It does not appear as conditioning is a major priority for him.
However, I always thought fighters needed a few months between fights to recuperate and train.
Happy Father’s Day to the applicable.
