Fedor says that he wants to fight Overeem next..(in december) !!

Unfortunately he doesn't seem to be pulling the strings, Finkelstein is and in a recent interview the only names he mentions were Lesnar, Couture and Barnett.

I'd still be interested in a Fedor-Barnett fight personally.

 

He won't be fighting overeem...please I'll be surprised if he steps in the ring with Bigfoot next. M1 and it's shareholders do not want a risky fight for Fedor, Overeem is a dangerous fight and I will Guarantee he will not fight him. In fact I will quit posting for 6 months on here I am so confident of what M1 will do. He knows he can't fight Lesnar or Couture so that statement is rubbish.

Barnett? maybe, but I know M1 will try to stronghand a rematch against Werdum but Coker and Werdum now have an upper hand on M1's demands and will make them pay one way or another.

I'll be surprised if his next opponent is a dangerous one.

 

That wouldn't be bad at all and a nice feather in Fedor's cap.

 

So you are saying it is M1 that will play it safe, not Fedor? You agree that Fedor wants to fight the best? At last me and you may have come to terms.:good

Finkel**** and crew does get in the way.

 

Of the three names mentioned - only Barnett is a possibility. They could stage that fight in Japan anytime!

 

Question, IF Fedor fights Overeem and IF Fedor destroys Overeem, will he gain the respect from skeptics?

 

If strikeforce let's him. He is under a contract.

 

I never said Fedor was "afraid" of anybody the guy is a great fighter and a great person but right now it's about M1 and how much money they can make with the least amount of risks. Finkeltool and his shareholders will be taking even less risks now that Fedor has a loss. 1 more loss and M1 is ****ed. Fedor will make his money as he deserves to but when Finkel gave Fedor 20% of M1 that changed everything.

 

He'll most likely finish his contract before then and fight Barnett on New Year's eve.

 

Yes and Yes...but he won't and I promised to sign off for 6 months if Fedor...or sorry M1 let's that fight happen.

M1 wants Werdum and nothing else. Prob for them now is they might not get their way.

 

If Fedor signs a contract with M1 after his next fight I will think he is

A) Really Stupid business wise.or...

B) His families Life is being threatened


Other than that Fedor has no reason to sign another extension with M1. He can walk into the UFC. Of that I have NO DOUBT!

 

Hahaha, I'll leave that one alone, but anyways Fedor can't leave M1 he is part of that debacle. And Fedor will never fight in the UFC......period.
do you think Finkel would risk a loss against Brock,Cain,JDS or Carwin?
...no way he can't risk his cash cow.....he simply won't, this is about Finkel and M1 not Fedor.
