Fedor Turns Down 30 Million Dollar Deal

Totally agree, everyone keeps saying Fedor doesn't need the UFC, well he needs them more than UFC needs him. Dana would sell a huge amount of PPV's if Brock's next opponent was a tin can. Why? Because they know how to market a fight and get people interested. If he doesn't sign it's more of a loss to the fans then it is to the UFC, they'll continue to make big money, Fedor will continue tojump from promotion to promotion fighting sub-par opponents and the fans will be left wondering what if?

 

Some of you people are aware M-1 fights are broadcast in 80 countries and that Fedor derives most of his income from outside of the US. If he got paid his full amount in the US the government here would automatically take 30%, nevermind the income tax back home, he'd walk away with nothing.

 

No way he would walk away with nothing. maybe after he dumped it all into m-1 he would lose all his money. every year the ufc grows bigger and bigger, today they are in forty, next year probably 60 but the thing is their shows are generally the biggest shows consistantly. fedor can make them bigger, and also by the association that m-1 can get from the ufc being almost like a sponser with fedor wearing their gear into the ring maybe banners on the cage with m-1s web addy. there is no other way for them to get that kind of advertising for basically free.

 

More countries doesn't mean more viewers.

UFC's worldwide audience is probably approaching 10x M-1's.

 

i am just getting sick of the back and forth i doubt either side of this (dana or vadim and his cronies)has told the fans the truth about what is actually going on in negotiations

 

Ill go out on a limb here and say at the moment, Brock would beat Fedor, ive watched both fighters, and I think Brocks size, speed and strength would be to much.

 

I am telling you right now that if they fight Fedor will knock Brock out. Not submit him by shatter his Glass Jaw standing up.

Lesnar is as one dimensional as it gets and his fights are boring as hell all he wants to do is tackle the other guy and smother him.

 

Totally agree. Brock's fights are boring as hell. Mir landed enough srikes standing to show that Fedor would KO him no probs.
