		<description>[...] Now I do understand people having an opinion and I think it&#8217;s great that Fedor has so many fans around the world, especially for a guy that hasn&#8217;t had a fight against anyone with a name in the last five years&#8230; unless of course we are talking about Sambo or his fight to double dip into the UFC&#8217;s pocket.

		<description>Lol, when he loses he&#039;ll probably consult tito ortiz for a good lame ass excuse, like, ohhh my back hurts, or ohhh i only lost to griffin bc im fighting with a &quot;cracked skull&quot;. How many people seriously believe a fighter would be medically cleared to fight with a &quot;cracked skull&quot;??? Maybe Tito and Fedor should join forces, start their own MMA promotion, and just fight each other over and over again at a catch weight, then it would be fun to hear each of their excuses as to why whichever one happen to lose the fight that time, lol.</description>

		<description>Lol, nice post. and dead on the money, we will see elvis perform live again at MGM Grand before we see Fedor step into the octagon with Lesnar...who would destroy him lol.

The only thing i dont completely agree with is, I don&#039;t think lesnar is the ONLY HW who can defeat Fedor. I mean take a look at the Rogers fight. He had that fight won, he beat the shit out of Fedor for the better part of that fight...he just got caught, it happens to everyone.
I personally think Couture would defeat Fedor, along with a handful of light heavyweights as well...Anderson Silva, Liddell, Machida, Carwin (HW)...and the list goes on.

But the fact remains, Fedor wont fight anyone ranked top 5, because a loss would prove what everyone pretty much already knows....

That&#039;s like me going out to the schoolyard and beating the shit out of a bunch of high school kids, and then running around telling everyone how much of a big dawg i am because no one can beat me! When if i stepped in the ring with a comparable match...I may or may not get whats coming to me, the point to that is...who knows??? because he won&#039;t do it. Its called, how do they say it on the rap songs....He&#039;s Scuuurrrrred! (Scared) lol</description>

		<description>Technically, Fedor can fight wherever he chooses while under contract with M-1. His contract contains a non-exclusivity clause, most likely because every organization M-1 co-promotes with ends up going bankrupt and closing shop. 

So you&#039;re incorrect when you say Fedor can&#039;t fight anywhere else until his M-1 contract expires. (Which as the co-owner, he has complete control over the decision making process)
Proof of that lies in the fact that M-1 claimed Fedor was signing a 1 fight deal with the UFC, absent any co-promotion, when the 7 figure, 1 fight deal was offered by Dana, only to watch fedor bitch up back out of it at the last minute.

i could personally care less whether he ever fights in the UFC, i have no respect for him or his organization, and it&#039;s only a matter of time before M-1 bankrupts Strikeforce just like they did their last co-promoting partner, lol.</description>

		<description>Your logic is flawed my friend. No one is asking fedor to fight for free? In reality, the UFC offered Fedor the biggest payday of his life to sign a 1 fight contract. More money than any other UFC fighter has ever made for 1 fight, including the highest paid UFC fighter to date, Chuck Liddell. 

So....no I wouldn&#039;t give away the best recipe in the world for free either, but if the restaurant offered me more money than I had ever made in my lifetime before to sell them my recipe, damn straight i&#039;d do it in the blink of an eye. The second flaw in your logic is you&#039;re assuming Fedor is the best in the world, i assume that&#039;s where you analogy was heading, i didn&#039;t really get the whole comparing Fedor to a recipe, but none the less, Fedor is far from the best in the world. It&#039;s just no one knows it because he wont agree to fight anyone ranked higher than double digits anymore...</description>

		<description>Lol, you insulted the blogger for his &quot;nice use of the english language&quot;

Did you read over your post before you sent it? I&#039;d assume not given the many grammatical and spelling errors yourself, lol.

And if you think for one minute Fedor will ever sign with the UFC, you must be a commi Russian yourself, because M-1 knows that if they put Fedor in the octagon with the best of the best, it will finally be proven that he may be good, but far from the best, and that would be the downfall of M-1 period, since Fedor is well, pretty much their only fighter.</description>

		<description>You believe UFC fighters dont need to go to strikeforce to fight Fedor and Fedor should fight under Dana after he trash talks him and wont match strikeforce offer..
Sounds to me Dana has already had his way with you and you must have liked it, thats why you keep backing him, maybe you can share Aerobics tights together..

(Not an obsession, just pissed Dana is not being held accountable for burning the bridge)..</description>

		<description>MMA Man 
You seem to have a unnatural obsession with Fedor.  I&#039;m done talking about him. He is ducking real competition and that is the FACT or he would be fighting the best in mma not in gayforce fighting inferior fighters.
Sounds to me like your looking for a date with Fedor. I suggest you contact him at his fan club to start http://www.fedoremelianenko.azplayers.com/. He just got married so I beat you have a hard time getting a date.  Good Luck</description>

		<description>Another point, Dana has trash talked fedor to the hills why would fedor (the biggest attraction) reward him by joining his company? Dana has essentially burnt the bridge because of his own ego and pocket with total disregard to all us fans that didnt want the bridge burnt..
Fedor is very happy for anyone to fight him just not under Dana who trash talks him and other fighters (which he has admitted is to sell tickets)..It is not up to Fedor to join a peice of shit like Dana it is up to fighters to go to Fedor and take his crown..
How ridiculous to say Fedor is all of a sudden scared to fight the top fighters given his record of beating and submitting the best in all promo&#039;s including former UFC champions..Fedor knows anyone can join strikeforce any time or can make it happen if he was afraid he&#039;d quit fighting all together.. So the question is why are the UFC fighters not going to fight Fedor in strikeforce or any other promo??   scared??? i dont think anyones scared it is the $</description>
