It is confirmed...Fedor vs Choi......

[AJAX]

(According to MMA junkie) Well, I guess it's not that big of a surprise..but Fedor taking this fight after Choi just got the shit kicked out of him in K1. I think it's time to stick a fork in Fedor... I don't think he's interested in fighting top guys anymore....really what do you think will happen in this fight??...it's a matter of time until Fedor get's him off his feet and then it's all over for the big man. The guy has only 1 friggin MMA fight...oh well maybe Fedor will face a contender in 08

[Donut62]

My God, this is a terrible fight.

*contemplates changing av after a year of sticking it out*

[curmudgeon]

( I don't think he's interested in fighting top guys anymore...

And who would that be he could/should fight, who is not beeing raped in the ass by Dana White?

He keeps calling our Couture in no uncertain terms?

I think you should direct your anger and frustration elsewhere.

They got Choi, obviously they have a relationship with K-1. There you have Kharitonov or Overeem. Josh Barnett is still unsigned. Jeff Monson is out there. Any of these are far more legitimate fights than this.

[AJAX]

Even Pedro Rizzo is out there....And Randy is under contract still....and Fedor knows that ...so calling him out was useless....and direct my anger where? Is this all Dana's fault? If he would have come to UFC he would have been involved in one of the biggest fights in MMA history.. and he would have made lot's of money with more endorsements and getting a ppv percentage cut...not to mention more western exposure..so the sky would have been the limit. The fight was there waiting to happen.. instead he does this.....a freak show fight....Is it really that much better in m1 than the UFC.....don't be surprised if they go tit's up....people don't want to see Fedor fight cans ....just because he is Fedor

[Donut62]

When people realize what a huge money scam this whole M-1 global deal is, they will be kicking themselves for defending it.

[Tko4]

While I like seeing freak fighters get beaten up, I prefer when it's not one of the best in the world having to do it. Such a waste.

[The Whaler]

How many seconds do you think Choi will last? 30 perhaps?

[oblate]

My God, this is a terrible fight.

*contemplates changing av after a year of sticking it out*
nah don't change your av.

[ufoalf]

w/e, it'll get better.

[AJAX]

I think Fedor would want to make it last a little while...he doesn't want to dissapoint the fans too much

If he does that he might get cought with those 2 yard/100lb arms.

What load of a fucking bullshit.....

Regardless of the extent that many of you complain, one thing is certain. We will all be logging on to find out the result ASAP.

I'll give you the results right now.

FEDOR WON!

[thechamp]

looking forward to this

[concrete sledge]

In M1 do they allow fighters to wrap themselves in the ropes and hold on for dear life?

Choi by KO in 10 seconds.

[Dostoevsky]

What a load of fucking bullshit.

I watched Gracie-Akebono, so I have no shame at all when it comes to looking up freak shows.

[curmudgeon]

Choi by KO in 10 seconds.

You see, people think it is a competitive fight.

I like that it has this freak factor in it, and none of the folks you named, with an exception of Barnett would be a radically better choice for a keep busy fight. And Barnett is unsigned.

[The Whaler]

You see, people think it is a competitive fight.


Those people are retarded.

Fedor will beat Choi, who is coming off a beating, and no matter what people say there are better fighters then Choi out there who are available for Fedor. His competition for the past two years has been bad, and now he chooses to fight another lowly regarded opponent.

This is bullshit.

[curmudgeon]

His competition for the past two years has been bad, and now he chooses to fight another lowly regarded opponent.


Hunt was not that bad. And I seriously doubt that he does much "choosing". I think the only choice he is making is to make some good money. And that is why he would not suck Dana White's balls, or sign UFC contract, which is one and the same.

I doubt he was offered some stronger fighter and answered thank you, but I will better fight Choi. Do you think that was the case?

:patsch
I love how people associate signing a UFC contract with sucking Dana Whites balls. :roll:

If Fedor signed with the UFC, he would fight better fighters establishing his legacy (providing he won) and he would become far far richer in the UFC than this pissant org he's in now.
He would become a household name, a bigger legend than he is now, if he held the UFC title for a couple of years and beat the likes of Randy,Gonzaga,Arlovski,Sylvia he would truly have shown who the greatest was.

Fedor is fast becoming a joke and a farce, he's getting as bad as Frank Shamrock a couple years ago.
He's now content with fighting bums for the rest of his career and shitting his talent down the fucking toilet. Well done Fedor......you wasted it. :verysad

[scurlaruntings]

Alas maybe his hunger died when PRIDE expired.His made his money.What else does he need in a sport as dangerous as MMA.

well put, I dout this org will do anything.

[sugarngold]

Fedor needs to fight Josh Barnett if he wants to remain at the top of the heap. His last few match ups have been side shows to say the least. Barnett owns the win over Couture. Barnett is a tough, legitimate contender. He is a threat to anyone at heavyweight. Even without a Couture fight on the horizon, Fedor vs Barnett seems like a natural.

A thank yew. . .

Obviously, that is the opinion of the current UFC heavyweight champion. And who are you to think otherwise?

Randy was exposed as lying and spewing bullshit.

They basically exposed Randy as exaggerating things and in some cases outright lying.

It is still his opinion. Which has to be taken into account by other UFC would be fighters. And he still can not make a fight that he likes.

I do believe Fedor on the one that the contract terms had been unacceptable. And I think he does not give a fuck about Dana White and his kissases, and rightfully so.

[Hrak]

Ill give you guys a dead on prediction of the fight. Bell rings, they both move close , Choi throws a lazy jab, Fedor rushes in grabs a leg taking Choi down. A second after choi is down, Fedor will lock an armbar and choi taps.

If it ends right now, and even a couple of fights ago, it is still been better then a carreer of any other heavyweight MMA fighter so far in the history of the sport.

This guys on to something, Fedor should fight for monkeyfeed and give his soul to Dana White so he can fight Tim Sylvia and Gabriel Gonzaga :good

Listen, I see you like talking out of your ass when you talk about Fedor. How exactly do you know he'll make more money fightin in UFC? Oh thats right, you dont.

[Dostoevsky]

It's an educated guess, considering the UFC is the largest, richest and most successful MMA organization of all time.

It will surely bring him more money than the lowly one he's in now.

[sugarngold]

That's most likely very true - however I have heard tell that Mark Cuban is the backer behind the M1 organization that Fedor is fighting for. So there is money there for the taking. Fedor will play it smart and end up getting the best paydays he can get. The reason he doesn't want to sign with UFC is because of the exclusivity contract. He likes appearing at and competing in all sorts of competitions. A UFC contract would prevent that. Who's to say that the revenue he takes in from his multiple appearances doesn't net him more earnings than a UFC contract?

He'll wind up in the UFC sooner or later. It's too bad that it's not sooner.

[Dostoevsky]

Nah, after Dana's outbursts I seriously doubt Fedor would ever come to UFC.

[ufoalf]

Nah, after Dana's outbursts I seriously doubt Fedor would ever come to UFC.

Yes, thats definitely true and justified.

As, for money, I'm gona have to say I disagree. Just the fact that UFC is the biggest org. doesn't mean he's gona get most money out of it. The way i see it happened was that Dana thought Fedor needed UFC, while Fedor didn't. He was limiting the contract to what he wanted, not only restriction-wise but also money-wise.
UFC has plenty of stars and paying Fedor over 2mil per-fight is ridiculous for Dana.

Bullshit. Do you have any idea what you're talking about or are you just saying things? Any [x amount of fights] deal has no time stipulation; ask Andrei Arlovski if it's that simple, he currently has his life, career, everything on hold while Dana decides whether to toss him another 'chance' or let him continue to rot. The UFC owns it's fighters souls.

It apperars Arlovski is done with the UFC....his contract expires in April so time has almost run out anyhow..in getting in a fight before then...not the best move by UFC in not getting a deal done....but they like to make a new contract before the last fight expires.....AA wants to finish his last fight on the contract...which is understandable he wants a good preformance to up his value. Question is where will he go?....Fedor vs AA would be a great fight....if that would ever happen.

That would be a good fight.
I would love to see how Fedor would deal with a good boxing type striker.
I don't think Fedor has yet faced a truly good one like AA.

It's also a shame that the UFC doesn't like Arlovski anymore, because when he was on, he was ON!
A really exciting fighter to watch.

No doubt, just because he that boring fight doesn't mean they will all be like that, he can still be one of the most explosive fighters when he chooses to be. I think the big prob is the contract situation, Dana wants to neg now...but AA wants to wait till after his last fight....Too bad.

[ufoalf]

Isn't one example more than enough? Just shows how much power he has over ANY of his fighter. Fedor had an interview where basicly laughed when asked about the contract. Dana just isn't used to that kind of treatment.He's used to people kissing up to him, thats why he went off the rail about Fedor.

[sugarngold]

If Vince Mac Mahon has taught us anything - it's that anything is possible. Never say never.
