He took him there because he thought Liddell would have a walk in the park. He got shook vs Overeem and he got "proper" ****ed vs Rampage. Iv been saying for ages Fedor doesnt need to come to the UFC to prove **** all and a bunch of frat boys tried to laugh me off the board. If Lesnar wants it so bad fight Fedor when he's contract expires. Either way a guy who boasts a record of 4-1 is pretty shambolic. UFC fans have selective memories that are extremely short. When Fedor was kicking ass in PRIDE Lesnar was still in the OVW.
Why Fedor has to give up his priorities to fight someone inferior? At least Brock has an incentive to give up his priority. Whis is to fight #1 HW in Fedor.
You UFC fans are awesome. Im guessing you started watching MMA yesterday right? I mean Mir Couture Carwin Cain thems some real killers there.
Asking Fedor to bend over giving up his desires to join UFC to fight a 4-1 guy who is greener than grass would be asking American basketball team to represent China in the Olympics because it would make them more money and more popular. Ridiculous. :good
I was right you're a new fan. Werdum is a two-time Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu world champion, 2007 ADCC world heavyweight champion and European Jiu-Jitsu champion. He has a Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and a Brown Belt in Judo. He's also a veteran of PRIDE and has some of the finest grappling credentials in the sport: ADCC 2005 99 kg+: 3rd place ADCC 2003 Absolute: 3rd place 99 kg+: 2nd place Record of opponents: Won: Dennis Roberts (pts), Daniel Gracie (pts), Andy Reese (pts), Tsuyoshi Kosaka (pts), Jehad A Hamdan (pts), Mike Van Arsdale (pts), Matt Lindland (armbar), Akira Shoji (pts), Marcio 'Pe De Pano' Cruz (pts), Elvis Sinosic (sub), Karol Bedorf (sub), Darren Andy (sub), Rolles Gracie (4-0, two takedowns), Mario Rinaldi (sub), Lost: Marcio Corletta (pts)?, Jeff Monson (pts), Roger Gracie (sub), Marcio 'Pe De Pano' Cruz (pts), Alexandre Ferreira 'Cacareco' (pts), André Galvão (pts) CBJJ World Championships 2004 Black Belt Pesadissimo: 1st Place 2003 Black Belt Super-Pesado: 1st Place Black Belt Absolute: =3rd Place 2002 Brown Belt Super-Pesado: 3rd Place 2001 Purple Belt Absolute: 2nd Place 2000 Blue Belt Super-Pesado: 1st Place Blue Belt Absolute: 1st Place CBJJ Pan American Championships 2003 Black Belt Super Super Heavy: =3rd Place Black Belt Absolute: 2nd Place 2002 Brown Belt Super-Pesado: 1st Place 2001 Purple Belt Super-Pesado: 1st Place Purple Belt Absolute: 1st Place CBJJO BJJ World Cup 2004 Black Belt Pesadissimo: 2nd Place Black Belt Absolute: =3rd Place 2003 Black Belt Belt Pesadissimo: 2nd Place Now Brett Rogers just KO'ed AA. The UFC's former heavyweight champ. Who's Cain's biggest opponent to date? A life and death war with Gonzaga? And how about Overeem. K1 and PRIDE veteran. He has wins over studs like Kharitonov Belfort and Igor Vonchancyn. Im pretty sure you've never heard of any of them seeing as you only started watching MMA yesterday and as is usual for most frat boys glibly towe the company line. Overeem one of MMA's best strikers has had more fights than goons like Carwin and Cain combined but he's a nobody right because he's not in the UFC. Seriously find another sport to watch. Typical frat fanboy.
No whats sad here is the fact you dont even know who Fedor is. Tell you what why dont you dissect his career for us. Tell us how a few of his fights went in PRIDE or Rings. You know educate us with you're stunning objectiveness and really explain to us how his career is going down the toilet because he signed for a BETTER deal financially than the UFC could offer him.
Let's face it, as good as Werdum is, Fedor is going to BLUDGEON him. This will also be an interesting matchup since Werdum subbed Aleksander. I think with the acquisition of Mousasi, and his destruction of Babalu for the belt, and signing Fedor, Strikeforce is starting to look more like a rival to UFC than an inferior product, and could possibly start to lure away some UFC talent who are looking to fight the best.
That mon fere pretty much sums up you're post. Theres no need for a further discussion as you're repeating by wrote the same shite you've read on Sherdog. If you were an objective fan your fanboy attitude wouldnt be so apparent. But unfortunately that along with your feeble capacity for one up man ship as well as your clear lack of knowledge on any of Fedor's fights or his Sambo credentials other than the dregs you've dragged up from internet boards pretty much makes you and your opinion wholly insignificant and throughly worthless. Im fairly sure Fedor feels the exact same way.
Your the last person that should be talking about an objective fan. If anybody on here doesn't hate the UFC they are automatically fan boys and don't know anything about MMA. Your posts are 100% anti UFC so what do you know about being objective?
He's almost like a lawer....tap dances around some questions while choosing ones to answer that he can have a response to.
http://www.fightline.com/news/mma/2009/0818/437590/fedor_emelianenko/index.shtml It's clear from the offer that since M1 Global couldn't **** the ufc like Affliction and bodog they wern't interested. they want 50% of profits on top of Fedors salary but yet don't take any of the loses .
