Ok im combining athletes from my two favourite sports that are competing presently.
Hope im not offending anyone bringing MMA into this, if Iam get over it.
fedor is a freak of nature. even if fedor practiced kung fu he'd probably still win most of his fights.
it's not a fair assessment of if you look at it from that prespective.
how many times has a bjj guy beat a sambo guy?
Um....None.
The only way Nog beat Karitonov was by using his boxing skills.
well not really talking about their system.
more the fighters p4p skills wise and resume wise.
sambo is more rounded but bjj is far superior on the ground (especially the guard) at least in my limited knowledge of watching sambo and bjj.
That's how come Fedor beat Nog. The agressivness of Sambo neutralized Nog's BJJ.
really? no wonder he has decent hands for a grappler.
you're a big mma fan , royal.
let me ask you this...... bj penn vs. fedor emelianenko p4p who is better? skills-wise? resume-wise?
everyone thinks i'm crazy 'cause i say bj. people overrate fedors almost perfect record imo and underrate penn's awesome resume because of the l's.
Well Combat Sambo, is the "Judo" of Systema which has striking in it, so...
Penn vs. Sambo.
While they both have great resumes, if we're talking Skill diversity, I'm giving it to Fedor. Sambo allows more room to adapt then just BJJ and Boxing. Penn does have heart though.
well considering fedor's background is judo and sambo (soviet military hybrid version of judo and wrestling) i reckon fedor might not be good enough for the bigtime boxing.
one could also say david haye wasn't ready for the big time in judo or wrestling.
Fedor has golden gloves in the military.

them russians and ukrainians are bleeders...... :p
In a street fight, those two could take on a small city
In boxing, I'd say Pac.
From 106 lbs to 135 lbs, and now moving up to 147 to fight a junior middleweight.
That's one bad a$s mofoka in my opinion.
In MMA, it's fedor.
