UFC legend Mirko Cro Cop wrestles his 13-year-old son in bet for every penny he owns (Video)

Mirko ‘Cro Cop’ Filipovic is a UFC and Pride legend.

The 41-year-old is now retired from the Octagon but in his day he was a fearsome knock-out merchant with a high kick that could floor a horse.

Now he’s left the fight game, the Croatian kickboxer is already looking to the next generation – his 13-year-old son Ivana.

He’s training the lad up to be a fighter in his own image. But to give him a bit of extra incentive he has put a bit of a wager into the equation.

According to Jutarnji Cro Cop has actually bet his son every penny he owns – all the lad has to do is submit his dear old dad.

Ivana, who Cro Cop says is talented, strong and large for his age – and has a ‘crazy high kick’, took on his old man in their first ever ‘fight’ to try and win the money.

He didn’t do too badly for a first effort, but we don’t think Filipovic Sr is ready to part with his fortune just yet…

Borba svih borbi…
