That pissed Branko and the word on the street was that he ordered a murder of Mirko.
Branko was put in Jail under "attepmt of murder" suspicion. After interrogation he was released cause no hard evidence were found.

Thanks Koshpa. Man these Croatians are a rough bunch! ;)

Remember the beating Kerr put on Branco? He kept beating the piss out of Branco after the fight ended as well. That brought a smile to my face.

I don't recall anything like Kerr beating the piss outta him. I believe this was supposed to be the main event, and it was sorry. Branco held onto the ropes and wouldn't let go. Kerr tried to pull him down. Branco was dq'd. Terrible "fight."

I think that Branko was disqualified due to elbow striking not rope holding!

And yes Kerr was pissed off a lot!

i dont know what fight you were watching, no one got the piss beaten out of them. branco kept holding the ropes and got dq'ed for elbowing kerr behind the head.

branco was like 38 when he won the first ever k-1 GP. i dont see a point in him coming back expect for a paychek to cover his legal fees (the crazy bastard!).
