I think they should do the Henderson thing and bring him right into to unify the belts with Couture or Gonzaga.

Unification would be a great way to go with fedor but would that mean throwing away their foothold in that area with pride?

Or Sylvia. Both would be fun. They should bring Zentsov too. Zentsov-Cabbage.

I saw Fedor's brother get his ass kicked by Cro Cop. It was really quite exhilirating, actually. I think it's because he looks like such a douchebag.

I'd be down with that as well. In fact, I think Big Tim versus Aleks is now a match I want to see more.

From what i gathered, they said there will be no "show off" matches for Fedor, he's going straight for top fighters or champion.

Probably a byproduct of God knows how many million they had to pay him.

MMA is much like wrestling. They don't get the mega-bucks that boxers make, even though they generate a lot of money. I highly doubt that Fedor got millions.

Well your doubting means very little.Fedor was on a million dollar contract when he was at PRIDE and im pretty sure Dana wants Fedor in the big leagues and will stump up the cash.If Bodog can the UFC surely can.

Fedor got 3 million for his fight with Lindland.
I think he got about 1 million for his big fights in PRIDE.

He's the best Heavyweight in the world so he deserves every penny.
I hope he fights Sylvia as Sylvia did say he wanted to fight Fedor ("Bring on Fedor!")
Then onto Gonzaga/Couture.......and domination of the UFC.
