Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic has been issued an ultimatum by UFC President Dana White. White has asked for Cro Cop’s decision regarding his desire to remain with the UFC or retire.

In a post made over the weekend on Cro Cop’s personal website the former PRIDE superstar promised a response by today. However according to his latest post this looks unlikely:

Please be patient, statement coming up soon …

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.

We’ll have more from Cro Cop as soon as the news becomes available.
