Duran Duran is HUGE in all of Europe. I like CroCop's entrance music. It's good too see fighter's break out of the mold of heavy rock or rap.

Hell, I'd play this song for my entrance:

Good job!
Have you ever been to Croatia? I have in fact I'm going there again on 14th -16th of September, I love the place but if you look at the fashion over there it is quite behind the times as far as western Europe is concerned. I can't speak about Brazil because I've never been there. In Croatia the 'cool' look is very much like Fonzie from Happy Days but with a mullet. They generally love Duran Duran and groups from that era and style (U2, etc). I personally hate that s*** but hey each to their own.

Or in Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, Holland, Norway, Sweden... And, in any case, have they not staged a comeback, just like every other band from the 80s? So, even if they are huge in other countries, who cares?

The appalling comment was not that Duran Duran were popular. It was that a single from the 80s had just been released in Croatia. People love to twist comments around so they can support their own arguments. Got it, Drexal?

BTW, Duran Duran and U2 have nothing in common.

Sarcasm does not preclude people from being insulting. Croatia and Brazil are wonderful and modern countries. It is scary to think that in America people perceive anything that is not North America or Western Europe as being backwards.
its not like hes lying, record companies, video game companies, production companies stagger releases region by region to maximize income, i dont see why youd be up in arms about his comment unless you had no idea that thats how the E! industry works...blatant exaggeration aside

But, hey, yeah, I chill. Let's all have a good laugh!!!
No Earv, its a fact. Have you been outside of your country? Do you not realize there are some areas of the world that are cut off from modern media?

I'm half Filipino and know most of my family over there are so cut off from modern media you'd think Michael Jackson is still part of the jackson 5.. so I'm not gonna take some half assed comment about whether I've been outside of my country from some twit who thinks because he/she appears to be politically correct, that it somehow means they're cultured.

I think he lost cuz he thought the kick was going to the body cause he blocked his side and the rest is a highlight reel

I thought he was doing fine, if he could just have gotten his leg from under him and the right way round and regained conciousness im sure he would have been fine.
