    Good lord, talk about starting **** with the absolute worst person in the world to do so with.


    From mmamovement.com:

    "PRIDE veteran Aleksander Emelianenko got into a bar fight in Moscow last night. According to ValeTudo.ru, Aleksander was in the company of two female companions last night when a group of intoxicated men at a nearby table began to get loud and rowdy. The table of drunk men then proceeded to direct some ?inappropriate? remarks at Aleksander?s female cohorts. Aleksander, being the great man that he is, decided to stand up for the two ladies. He approached the table of hoodlums and shortly after, a fight erupted. Several chairs were thrown, and almost immediately the thugs realized they picked a fight with the wrong guy. Before long the hoodlums were screaming and crying for help. At this point, security officials rushed to scene and handcuffed Aleksander, mistaking him for the culprit. While detained, Aleksander gave his account of the story at which point in time the officials realized that they had taken the wrong guy. After 20 minutes of being held captive, Aleksander Emelianenko was released and even offered to be escorted back to his hotel to which the gentle giant refused."

    I'd hardly call him a 'gentle giant' though!

    This article sounds like more like a forum post than it does a "news article."

    One thing i dispise about America is that fact.

    Seriously, I was always a decent "B student" and was a guy who no one ****s with. In America those 2 are mutually exclusive.

    yeah it sounds weird, the cops hear what he has to say and then suddenly believe him and let him go.....for all they knew he could have just beat up those guys for fun. But then again who knows what really happened. The story usually told is not always accurate.

    He probably paid the cops some money, the authorities over there are crooked as hell, either that or he got his mafia pals to help him out.

    He didn't pay them off, he was in an open area with lots of witnesses and is a minor celeb, the Russian justice system isn't totally corrupt. He didn't break the law, so he got off.

    As far as Fedor, I want Aleks on my side when dealing with a bunch of drunks, more than Fedor any day of the week
