Well seeing as the best doesnt fight in the UFC (Sergei, Overeem and most likely Josh gone) then its really no big loss. The UFC only has two good fighters, JDS and Cain. I wount mind Golden Glory and M1-Global putting their differences aside and putting on the show of THE BEST FIGHTING THE BEST. They can easily do this too since M1-Global still has their Showtime contract. They can have Fedor and Guram versus Sergei and Overeem, and even have a 50:50 fighter share since Golden and M1 has enough good fighters in their stable to populate a card.

No he won't. A large percentage of casual fans (who are the majority) don't even know who Fedor is, and they didn't know this even when he was undefeated. Now that he's racked up 3 big losses in a row, I don't see how you can say he'll draw money. His aura and mystic image as being indomitable is completely gone.

Damn this hurts, does he have to step on the guy aswell?

guys like liddell ortiz and others can get chance after chance and can come back time and time again but Fedor wont get that same treatment, this sucks

they offered Fedor massive money and an instant title shot. he declined.

next he went to strikeforce, won debut but then lost 3 in a row. he will always be a draw but no-one is getting in the UFC off the back of 3 losses. and Fedor would probably turn down a contract anyway so he can do a sambo fight and rematch Shinya Aoki, like a true great.

Fedor has probably the best record in HW MMA and has defeated more UFC HW champs than anyone else. Age does catch up with fighters, especially one that represented Russia in JUDO, the best Sambo fighter, the best Combat Sambo fighter and the best MMA fighter. Fedor possibly has done more fights overall than all of UFC's HW top 10 combined.

Scums who dont know their MMA history and most likely only started watching Ultimate Figher through TUF are the ones trying to discredit Fedor and what hes achieved.

M1 wants to co promote with the UFC. UFC dont want that, hence Fedor not fighting in the UFC.

lmao, no one gets into the UFC coming off three losses? No one, or none of the names? Check the UFC cans. The people they brought in to lose. best of the best.

I didn't criticise Fedor once and look at his butthurt fanboys ^^
