"His strongest weapon is killer left hook. He is CRO COP and his time is coming! Mirko Filipovic is 24 years old. Seven years ago he got familiar with Tai-boxing and other martial arts. In 1996. In Seoul he already became world champion in full contact. That year, in the age of 22, with only two Thai-boxing fights, he entered K1 tournament in Tokyo, where he has defeated one of the eight best fighters, Europiean champion in the professional category at the time and world vice-champion. By that victory Mirko makes an entrance among the "glorious eight" of that absolute invitational world championship in Thai-boxing. He chose that sport because it’s "toughest, the most cruel, the most dangerous and it’s a sport where everything is allowed…"
Mirko is CRO COP, Police Academy student to whom Thai-boxing is a sport challenge and a philosophy of life. That persistent, skilful, nimble and swift high school student, just in a few years, grew up into an excellent boxer. His trainer, Leonard Pijetraj is capable of preparing his 188 cm of height and 98 kilograms of weight for the toughest efforts. Mirko is a sportsman ready for self-sacrifices to obtain top physical and psychical form. CRO COP uses his strenght only in boxing ring. Untill now he had 50 matches, he lost only seven of them but never because of knock-out or knock-down. He respects his opponents, but in the ring he shows no mercy for them. Today he’s a fighter used to fight in front of 70.000 spectators. He obtained self-confidence, firmness, he became faster, more dangerous and deadly. Mirko says he gains internal peace, calm and relaxation with fights, with self-confidence. He hates "lame, pale" fights.
He’s a true fighter and that’s why the audience loves him. Mirko has it all! Youth, wisdom and future are on his side. He’s CRO COP and his time is coming".
