He is one of the greatest mixed martial artists to emerge from Croatia. Everyone is raving about his phenomenal striking ability. Yet no one knows where he’s going next, until now that is. His name isn’t Mirko “Cro Cop" Filipovic though - it’s Zelg “The Marauder" Galesic.
Galesic (5-1-0) was relatively unknown until earlier this year when he debuted in England's Cage Rage. Ten months later he has four first round wins under his belt, including a submission victory against Curtis Stout (11-10-1) and a brutal TKO against Mark Weir (18-12-0), which earned him the Cage Rage British Middleweight Title.
Fans have been waiting to see Galesic in PRIDE or the UFC, and it looks like it’s going to happen. The young Croatian, who is often referred to as “Little Mirko," will most likely sign with PRIDE, says the fighter’s trainer and manager Charlie Joseph.
“There is a lot of interest in Zelg from the IFL, PRIDE and Showtime," says Joseph. “We have a long standing relationship with PRIDE and I would say in comparison they are easier to deal with, so my gut feeling is that Zelg will end up being a PRIDE fighter. We did have some contact with the UFC, but they are very difficult to deal with."
Galesic, who was turned down after he applied for the second season of SPIKE TV’s “The Ultimate Fighter," has been eyeing the big step to Japan’s top MMA organization.
“PRIDE provides the best test for me at my weight," explains Galesic. “I get a lot of support in Japan, so I think this is where I am meant to start my journey to the proverbial big time."
The Marauder, who may very well become a middleweight Cro Cop, is actually a training partner of the PRIDE Open-Weight Champion and attributes much of his success to his fellow Croatian.
“Mirko I train together regularly," says Galesic. “If he has a big fight coming up then he calls me up to spar. Mirko is a big inspiration for me. He has improved my game and has taught me a lot about strategy. But most importantly, he has given me confidence."
The MMA world may soon open up for Little Mirko (who says even he doesn’t know where his “big bro" will end up amidst his recent contract renegotiations with both PRIDE and the UFC).
Whether Galesic goes to Japan or America, world-renowned middleweights will definitely be hungry to battle with the young prospect. Galesic has one message - bring it on.
“If I can open-spar Mirko," says Galesic, "then I can fight with anyone in the world."
