First man of the UFC, Dana White, has sent an ultimatum to Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic, who has to make his mind up by today whether he wants to continue competing under this organisation or now, Profightstore.com writes.

As White said himself, Filipovic has not been in contact with his employers for quite some time now, to be precise, ever since he lost to Cheick Kong five months ago in England. Mirko has not revealed any specific future plans then.

At the end of last year Mirko said he is planning to fight for a few years, but the present situation is not the least bit promising.

- We’re waiting to hear from him. We told him we’d wait for him to make a decision, but he’s not making a decision……The deadline is pretty much up, and I need decision from him by Monday – White said.

The decision is due today and nobody knows what will happen. Mirko was brought to UFC as a big star and he ranked highly on the champion challengers list, but defeats by Gonzaga and Kong have disturbed his plans.

"Please be patient"

"I promised to share some news with you today and I feel bad by not doing so. There are some reasons for this that I can't speak of at the moment. However, I promise to make the statement as soon as possible. Thank you for supporting me and I hope that little more patience is not too much to ask." - Mirko Crocop

A big announcement will come straight from Japan tomorrow (February 13).
When the official part is done I'll be able to provide more information about everything,
