Mirko Filipović, better known by his ring name Mirko Cro Cop, is a retired Croatian professional mixed martial artist and kickboxer, having fought in PRIDE, K-1, RIZIN, UFC and Bellator. Mirko's signature move was his lightning-quick left high-kick, once famously described as "Right Leg, Hospital; Left Leg, Cemetery." His nickname, Cro Cop, short for "Croatian Cop", comes from his time in the Lučko Anti-Terrorist Unit, Croatia's elite Police Special Forces tactical unit.

He is the 2006 Pride Open-Weight GP Champion, the 2012 K-1 World GP Champion and the 2016 Rizin Openweight GP Champion. He is also a former IGF Champion, and is widely considered one of the finest Heavyweight Kickboxers/MMA fighters of all time.

In March 2019, he announced his retirement due to pressing health reasons.
