Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic is a dangerous man. Fans of UFC betting should really thank Dana White for signing this man to the organization - he's going to make a lot of people a lot of money.

A day before Super Bowl XLI betting gets underway, Cro Cop will step into the UFC and the North American spotlight.

He, along with Quinton "Rampage" Jackson, will be making his UFC debut in the Octagon. Cro Cop is a Croatian fighter with a very impressive resume. First on the list would be his elected position in the Croatian parliament, next would be his status as one of the most highly touted heavyweight fighters in the world. He's also been trained as part of an elite terrorist fighting team.

Yeah. I can't believe people will get in the ring with him either.

Cro Cop has knock-out power coming from all four of his limbs. He's a devastating south paw that Dana White swears is a "heavyweight Favored at -1400, Cro Cop has been quoted as saying he never underestimates an opponent.

I don't think I'm over-estimating Cro Cop when I say he IS GOING TO WIN. In fact, if you're lucky enough to be sitting in the first three rows of the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Vegas on February 3rd, you just might catch Eddie Sanchez' head when Cro Cop kicks it clean off.

After this match, it's going to be the fast-track to a heavyweight title shot for Mirko Cro Cop. The UFC is expecting big things from this man, and I've got every bit of confidence that he's going to deliver and shake up a stale division.

This guy is so new that the UFC website doesn't even have a profile picture of Cro Cop, but UFC bettors should take note. He is a guy to watch.
