    vadim Fecalstain needs to get over himself take the money and deal that ufc is offering and put on your m-1 global shows after fedors contract expires in the ufc you little dumbass. it is about the money because without that they cant put on their shitty little regional shows.

    Fedor is one of the owners of M-1 and they don't put on "shitty little regional shows." M-1 is tied in with FEG and promotes in four continents with fighters from over a dozen countries. Their version of TUF, takes place in Russia, continental Europe, Korea, Japan, and South America. 30 million is worth a lot less to Fedor than M-1 is.

    Also, it’s very interesting to me how when a beloved MMA fighter makes a decision fans don’t agree with, they throw it on someone else. Randy never would have had problems with Zuffa if Kim didn’t get involved in his business affairs. Tito wouldn’t have made outlandish demands for money if Jenna didn’t get in his ear. And now Fedor’s entire life is decided by his manager? All 3 of those men are reasonably intelligent from what we’ve seen, they make the final decision because they want to, not because they’re subservient to a master. Vadim, Jenna and Kim obviously chipped in their two cents to Fedor, Tito and Randy, but they did not make the decision for them. It’s a copout to say “I’ll credit you for your good points but blame the bad ones on somebody else.”

    Bingo. Trust me if Fedor wanted to come to the UFC he would have done it by now. He has no interest in the UFC. The sooner Dana realises that the better.

    UFC is shown in about 40 countries, the events M-1 promotes in conjunction with FEG are broadcast to 80 countries, it just isn't worth it for Fedor, he is making far too much being one of the M-1 owners to not want to co-promote.

    Not an M-1 employee, though probably wouldn't mind the job. Simply go to their website and it states the same info that you'd normally find on a promotional website. If you look on the website they have close relationships with major international networks like FOX and NTV, which UFC still cannot claim.
