Wow didn't expect that. Not that it matters to me personally.

Watch this flop at the gate and flop at the ratings.Contrary to Fedor nuthuggers,The man simply can not draw,He creates no interest to the general casual fan(which make up the largest fraction of any audience)


Fedor was more intent off of living off his overblown,overrated legacy rather than testing himself against the legitimate contenders of todays heavyweight scene.

The day Fedor grows a backbone and a pair of balls is the day MMA becomes a legitimate sport.


Let's just hope he get's brutally knocked out by Rogers so the ridiculous hype will end.

BigMacFoster :
What's with the raging exaggeration ? It's one thing to accuse Fedor for not signing with the UFC and fighting lesser opponents and another to say he has no balls (lol!) and call everyone his "nuthuggers"

By the way, I hope he gets destroyed, too !! Hehehe ! (But I think I haven't seen this Rogers fellow fight, I don't know, hope the ****er is good)

[Nick Fury]

Why the hate?

[Punch Me]

For me, it's not exactly hate, I just don't care too much for the guy. So I wanna see him destroyed and his fans in shock just for ****s and giggles :-D

But I think he has a better chance of winning than losing and I'll probably have to shut up until his next match, hehe.

I hope he gets ktfo too. I've been to this point, when it was put up or shut up he didn't respond like the champ we know him to be. He turned down too much money and too many fights for me.

UFC fighters are treated like ******. It's pretty one-sided to only blame Fedor when the UFC is run by such sleaze balls.

^^

To give one example, they probably demanded Fedor sign anywhere from a 4 to a 6 fight deal. Yet, the UFC is basically free to drop Fedor at any time. On top of that there's the champions clause. Anything but fare.

[Punch Me]

Saying that the UFC fighters are ****** is a gruesome exaggeration. The contracts are pretty tight, but that's what makes it a true championship, where there are solid champions and fighters that try to do runs for the title.

Also, the sport needs some consistent matchmaking, you think it would be the same if they were free to go around and sign wherever they thought was best after each fight ?! Or if they were constantly taking months off to compete in BJJ tournaments or boxing matches ?

And I'm pretty sure a lot of concessions were made to try and get Fedor to the UFC, the real problem was the co-marketing crap ! Which was the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
