Right, I know how big Cro Cop is, but you’ve been posting these links of Sapp taking down these guys you laud as ‘the best’, who are of similar weights to Cro Cop. I watch these guys and I’m thinking they are pretty stupid fighters. Cro Cop won because he was smarter, he didn’t get within Sapp’s range. That guy who let Sapp suplex him was dumb. If you are smaller and faster you stay out of range and do a lot of striking, you don’t go for a full frontal assault and try to grapple a guy who outweighs you by almost half again your weight.

It’s not just me calling them the best. They’re the best because they beat all their competitors. For example, Hoost and Minotauro both beat Cro Cop.

As to why Sapp didn’t grapple with Cro Cop? It was because it was a striking-only fight. Suplexes weren’t permitted.

Ahh gotcha.
