No one should accuse Mauro of being a coward, because at that time there was only two people on the planet who weren't afraid of Cro Cop. Fedor and Cro Cop's mom.

Hes the kinda guy that if you see walking towards you in an angry manner, you better learn to run 45 mph, because thats all you can do if Mirko is mad at you. One of the best fighters out there hands down.
