Fedor is open to fighting in the ufc, I believe he has said as much; if he told M1 to sign, they would. He is their biggest assest, without him they no longer exist, he also owns a stake, not to mention that if he feels M1 is not signing him to the ufc because it would hurt their own promotion he could claim conflict of interest on their part and that contract gets shredded no problem. He is totally willing, just not quite willing enough to push hard enough yet. If he wanted to he could, M1 has absolutely zero power over him if he chooses to ignore them.
They can't SERIOUSLY be talking about a re-match, surely??? I always thought re-matches were for controversial endings/decisions or a continuation of a great fight. The guy got ko'd! Maybe someone should do Rogers a favour and get him to watch the fight, it'll save him more of the same!
Rogers has potential but I believe Carwin would win this bout. They keep finding opponents for Fedor and he keeps beating them, but I believe that Carwin is the only guy out there who could (Possibly) seriously test Fedor. Carwin is a huge, powerful guy with great wrestling, and tremendous punching power. he has a great chin, plenty of heart and excellent recuperative powers (Essential when your fighting Fedor!). I aint saying he'd beat Fedor (Who truly is in a class of his own) but he could prove to be a most troublesome opponent.
This is true, he got KTFO but he did very well. Not worthy of a rematch, but he could work his way back up to a shot if he wanted, and could earn it.
