Yeah I'm not agaisn't building up fighters... But Crocop's problem was more mental then anything else. He would have kicked Kongo's ass in K-1 any day... Crocop was a way better kickboxer, and he defintily has more ground game too.
Lots of guys were loosing in pride too :
Rampage got his ass kicked in pride and is now champ
Andersen Silva got his ass kicked in pride and is #1 p4p on most people's list
Big Nog got his ass kicked by Fedor in pride and is now UFC champ
