Fighting in the UFC will only make him the greatest to the mainstream. Most people who are not much more than a casual fan do no know who fedor even is. Like Mike tyson, in 1989 or so even if you never saw a boxing match, you KNEW who Mike Tyson was. The only way Fedor can reach that type of legacy if by fighting in the UFC, the biggest org there is with the biggest fan base. Yes he is the greatest, but how many people even know that?
:roflatsch He has beat 5 former UFC Heavyweight Champions. It is not Fedor's job to go and fight anywhere he is the established fighter and #1 Heavyweight and mythical #1 P4P fighter in the World. It is Lesnar and the rest of Dana White's slaves job to grow some balls tell White to **** off and go make the fight happen in another organization.
Rusty, how are we supposed to take you seriously? You have a ****ing Vin Diesel avatar from one of the gayest movies of alltime.atsch Fedor has fought and dominated in Rings, Sambo games, Bodog, Affliction and oh what was the one company i forget.......oh yeah, PRIDE FC you dumbass!! If Lesnar wants any respect he needs to go after Fedor, Fedor has nothing to prove. Lesnar has 4 wins against guys that Fedor would take out in a mintue tops. Why would he fight for Dana White when he hates the guys gut. Not to hard to understand.atsch
Stupid point. There is no "in the ufc." Besides, the ufc is quickly becoming irrelevant. These adult-children that run that event are being taken less seriously daily.
Why do you keep saying "mythical" #1? That's the second time I've noticed it. What does that even mean? Is he better than Achilles?
Hindsight is an absolute ***** in fighting. When Fedor blasted Sylvia and Arlovski etc, it meant something.
Since when fighter is defined by a promotion? **** UFC. If Lesnar or anybody else has any claim as to be better - they should haul their asses to Strikeforce to fight him. Otherwise they are just hiding from Fedor behind a contract.
curmudgeon I totally agree... Remember when Dana White took Liddell to Pride FC for the middleweight Grand Prix? Why can't he send Lesnar to Strikeforce? Because he knows Lesnar will lose, and he wants to hold down Fedor with a long term contract so he stays with UFC. So UFC looks like a juggernaut.:good
