Mirko Cro Cop signs new 3 fight deal with UFC, will return at UFC 103

Heavyweight knockout artist, Mirko Cro Cop has signed a new three fight deal with the UFC, putting an end to speculation he was set to walk away from the promotion following his win at UFC 99 last month.

UFC President, Dana White confirmed the news to Yahoo!Sports.com today and that he would be returning at UFC 103 in Dallas, Texas against fellow devastating striker, Junior dos Santos.

The deal was done after UFC co-owner, Lorenzo Fertitta flew out to Zagreb and made the Croatian an “offer he couldn’t refuse”. What that could be remains a mystery but you can expect him to challenge for a title should he string together one or two more victories.
