Stupid Stupid move to throw that dam knee, he shouldnt known he wasnt fighting Ben Rothwell again
Glass jaw still, can’t train for that. Pitt Bull was doing great up to that point. Glory to the Last Emperor!
WoooW! Was looking arloski for a bit there but fedor is the true Ice Man. niiiice. Oh and i love how arloski drug his face on the mat when he went to turn his head.
looked like Andre had some things going, ..Fedor is just superior, ..If Barnett can’t take him, i’m not sure anyone will for quite some time, ……
woow he is a true warrior and good man he deserves this win as every other win he has. he is the best representation of mixed martial arts
lol, even fedor was shocked he went down that fast. AA was doing pretty good i’d say, he made a stupid mistake and paid for it full price rofl, btw whats up with their pays man, fedor gets 300k… AA gets 1.5m… this is not right lol, should be switched around.
That was a stupid move by Arlovski, he seem dominating and stronger than Fedor, but I am happy for Fedor he is the champion and by the end of the day thats what matter. I would love to see if Fedor takes a fight against Brock Lesnar.
Rahul…
Fedor would kill lesnar. Youre ignorant and shouldnt post your opinion when you obviously arent a real fan and have no true knowledge of the sport AND have no idea what it takes to be a champion.
Actually, I would like to see Fedor fight Brock Lesnar, Frank Mir, Randy Couture, Cheick Kongo, andGabriel Gonzoga. Also, who wouldn’t want to see Fedor fight Brock. That would be awesome!
Fedor is clearly the best heavy weight in the world, he has fought many former UFC champions and had other wins over great opponents Crocop at his best just one of them. The next best Heavyweight would probably be Frank Mir at his best.
Ignorance would be saying Fedor isn’t the #1 Heavyweight in the world..right now. If Brock Lesnar can get past Frank Mir..and look good doing it…I have no problem with the idea of Lesnar handling Fedor….and don’t talk crap about other posters just because you think Fedor would kill Lesnar….Fedor hasnt ever fought a guy of Lesnar’s skillset….Andrei Arlovski was cut from the UFC for a reason…he’s not an elite level Heavyweight…nor is Tim Sylvia…nice win for Fedor…now let’s see him do it against Lesnar…
I have no problem with Fedor fighting Kimbo. Watch out Fedor cause Kimbo got that KO punch. The fight would definitely be a mega deal fight. Two of the best heavyweight and probably the #1 best PPV revenue. Cant wait for it to happen
Lesnar doesn’t really have a huge history or ’skill set’ as you put it nearly as strong as some of Fedors past opponents, Lesnar is yet to fight anyone in mma and look great, he makes key mistakes in all his fights. I’m not saying Lesnar is bad but he isn’t there yet he holds the belt but he isn’t the best and pound for pound wouldn’t make top 10. I understand why people want the belt holder of Affliction and belt holder of UFC to fight but to be honest more well rounded strikers with a good ground game are better suited to beat Fedor, Frank Mir, Gonzaga come to mind, remember Fedor HAS been rattled by a few hits before he has NEVER been beaten convincingly on the ground.
I don’t hold disrespect for any MMA fighters but when people mention Kimbo they should realise he should be fighting in a lower division i dont see what aspect of kimbos fighting warrents him a spot in the top teir fighters.
Kimbos:
striking is half there
ground game non exsistant
poor from the grapple
doesn’t move to well just plants in front of people
Think of all the great strikers how many of them just stood and swung? All of them move very well Kimbo just swings and covers his head.
As for this fight i know a lot of people are saying that Arlovski looked great until he got caught and he did but remember this was a 5 round fight, there is no way he could have kept that pace up for the full 5 rounds, Fedor is smart and I think he expected (because of Arlovskis height and reach) this fight to not be over so early. Had this fight gone longer and Fedor would have TKO or Sub him in the later rounds once Andrei was out of gas.
“Fedor hasnt ever fought a guy of Lesnar’s skillset….Andrei Arlovski was cut from the UFC for a reason…he’s not an elite level Heavyweight…nor is Tim Sylvia”
nogueira’s skillset is filet mignon to lesnar’s salisbury steak, which is also what big brock would look like if he fought fedor…chopped meat.
of course, hate me and say i’m wrong since i am one of those people who think the nog/mir fight was stopped too soon since i know that nog has gotten knocked down and punched like that before…in every fight…and he has gone on to win them.
i think that fight should have been stopped if nog’s arms were out at his sides and not sooner…but that’s another point.
originally: fedor can and would dominate lesnar.
[...] Fedor Emelianenko Vs. Andrei Arlovski Video [...]
b. galiano i know what you mean about the fight but Nog agrees he was out, also the ref has a duty to the fighters health.
My heart was racing when I was watching the fight tonight because for the first time I actually felt Fedor could possibly lose. Arlovski trained harder for this fight than I think anyone has ever trained for a fight (aside from fedor). That knock out was nothing short of amazing, and is what Fedor does best – capitalize on your mistakes. Excellent fight.
Fedor was so lucky tonight, what a joke! He was getting beat, he looked slow and Arlovski was taking the fight to him! Last Emperor my ass…..He better retire while he can because his slow non-defensive ass is going to get beat down soon. If Lesnar gets him down on the mat (which he would), he will pound that out of shape bum into submission. I’m so sick of all the talk on this guy. He beats Tim Sylvia (bum) and gets lucky against Arlovski.
Belski !! Cry….
To that idiot guy that is saying Lesnar would be a match for Fedor:
Close your mouth. You know nothing about the sport. You prob only watch UFC and think that all the best fighters are there. You are probably a little kid or teenager you idiot.
Fedor is a serious fighter, Lesnar is a brainless thug. Fedor would kill him.
I agree with Mick!
First rule of MMA or any fighting is that anything can happen. Tyson vs Douglas Tokyo Japan should have taught every fight fan that. Fedor is a great fighter and deserves respect from everyone, but fighting is as much about promoting as it is about winning. Who out there besides a Brock Lesnar vs Fedor could bring a bigger payday right now, considering Brock handles Frank Mir. Fedor deserves a payday like that win / lose!
As far as who would win, well, fight analysts can talk til they are blue in the face, and fans can argue til the match is over, but anyone who is 6′3″ 275+ and wears size 4X gloves has a “chance” to beat anyone, and lets not forget Brock is a great competitor.
Bottom line Lesnar vs Fedor = win for fight fans, and promotors. so dont be a hater one way or another, just be a fan and wish for great fighters to fight great fighters in their primes!!!
on the real andrei was winning the fight, ferdor had no answer for is strikes if it wasnt for that stupid flying knee i think andrei would have won the fight i want to see a rematch!!
To all the Fedor haters. Fedor would be able to handle anyone put in front of him. Arlovski was striking and looked good but like i was saying during the fight and before the fight Arlovski has a glass jaw. But fedor always plays possum. He feels his fights out in the first round. He is also the best capitalizer in all of mma. He never misses an oppurtunity to put a fight away. To all the people saying he never fought a guy with 4xgloves or his size hun mon choi however you spell his name . was 7 foot 3 inches and 350 lbs and muscle/ So know you facts butt loving lesnar fans. Last I remember Lesnar Tapping out to mir.
So Andrei, are you clear now why everywhere people are just saying FEDOR, FEDOR, FEDOR??
mmm? what if you drop your RIDICULUS “Mouthpiece” and get some more experience before to talk about someone like SIR Fedor Emilianenko? did you see all the shit you talked before the fight? now see how is your mouth, I am sure you will think twice before being TALKING LOT OF SHIT!!!! DUMBASS!!!
My favorite sentance of all time from MMA fans….”He was winning until he lost”!! That is the funniest $h!** ! Who gives a damn who was “winning”, I care who wins. I don’t think a guy who has only one loss, and that due to cuts wins anything by luck at this point, either. He kind of gets the benefit of the doubt that maybe, just maybe, he is really good? Fedor is a league above Arlovski, plain and simple. And by the way, if Frank Mir can submit Lesnar, I feel Fedor would be able to as well. Fedor is an even BETTER submission fighter than Mir is, so that tells you how good he is on the ground. Bottom line, I don’t care if someone punches me more times than I punch him, so long as I am standing over his @$$ at the end.
to who ever said that kimbo and fedor would be a good fight….. the only good thing about that match up is that we can see kimbo get destroyed, BAD… that isnt a fight, its like throwing a confused fish into a tank with sharks… kimbo is not a fighter, he is a street bar room brawler.. go back to youtube fights bud and stick to em.. and shave the damn pillow off your face haha…
great….i wanted fedor to lose…now i have to listen to all the fedor nut hugging fans(you know the stupid ones who just like the guy because he is undefeated)…about how great he is when everybody already knows the guy is good…great…just great..and how can you compare hong man choi to brock lesnar???…come on dude…i gotta get out of here..all the man love is making me sick
very well put dirtdigger. winning is winning. my next best fights predictions fedor vs barnett = fedor, lesnar vs mir = mir, gsp vs penn= gsp, faber vs pulver= faber. I love all mma. on any given day anybody can beat anybody just like anyother sport. you just might get lucky or get a lucky punch(not saying fedors was). there are those times when you got that guys number. Look at paul bunitello*. I dont think the guy should have beat half the people he has. on the other side of that I love seeing that fat ass knocking jacked guys on their ass. with that I think that affliction put out a good card. also LONG LIVE THE LAST EMPEROR! out.
Arlovsky and that glass jaw he went down in a heap. I was pulling for the upset but Fedor showed why he is the best heavyweight in the world that being said I would like to see him in a octagon, I think matchups against Frank mir, Brock Lesnar or Gabriel Gonzaga would be interesting, I don’t think Josh Barnett can beat him.
you fucking losers, stop hating on Fedor…Brock wouldn’t fucking stand a chance are you kidding me? Brock can’t even beat the fucking Big Show, give me a break…stop with this UFC is superior shit..UFC didn’t know who Anderson Silva was when he was in pride, until he started kicking everyone of the UFC’s monkey asses…Fedor is the man, and no one as of now will beat him–period. Brock sucks and Randy’s overrated. Mir might have the best chance, but the way he got clowned by that nobody Brandon Vera, I’m not sure either..
I dont think so either but until fedor and his “family” make that decision we will never see him in the octagon. white would S*** if they wanted to. literally s***. frank mir would be awsome for fedor. the only thing I feel that it would still be more of an advantage for fedor for the octagon because if you look at his history of fights the only reason some of those fights went as long as they did is that they were reset from the ropes only one fight was fedor on bottom of that exchange nog#2 = NC. If fedor is allowed to continue who he is pounding on fedorism fashion it will be ugly. Just to clear this up Im not just a fan of fedor. Im a fan of what he has done for the sport and how he reps it. Gonza would be nice also.
whats wrong with Brock Fighting Fedor??? Why do people think that if you support brock then your not a true mma fan? Because he’s from pro-wrestling? He dominated every man he has faced so far, two of them being ten heavyweights. KENNY FLORIAN AND FRANKLIN McNEIL from MMA live said that Lesnar would pose the biggest threat to Fedor!!! I’m sure they know more about mma than any of you lesnar haters: Face it. Lesnar is one of the very few in the world that can stop Fedor, if any.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
READ ABOVE FOR ALL THE BROCK LESNAR HATERS
I could see that austin. Not now though. fedor exposes weaknesses and brock does not have many. One that everyone does know about is that he is a showman. he wants to get it decicevly. that means that he will be agressive. overexcertive is what I would call it. You are right I am as far from an expert as they come probably but I do love the sport for what it is. if lesnar is smart and does what he should by that I mean be precise with everything and not try any big shots he would do very well but a big shot would probably be the end of him now. fedors bread and butter is the arm bar. Brock could very well be the one to upset fedor but not right now. give it a year or two with the way that leanar is learning things so quickly. He is a bad man and with his god given attributes … wow he is set but the mind takes time and experience.
DONT EVER THINK LESNAR WITH A 3-1 RECORD CAN STAND A CHANCE AGAINST SOMEONE WITH A 29-0 RECORD EVER!!! You guys buy into the big strong wrestler, hes already been beat!!!
Awww I wanted to see Fedor GnP Arvolski.
realy nice job from fedor .. i think fedor has inteligence and is great fighter( the best)
OK LISTEN UP:
Lesnar after 4 mma matches: known worldwide for wwe base, UFC Heavyweight Champion, UFC rookie of the year, wins over 2 top ten heavyweights, considered to be top ten heavyweight, and UFC’s posterboy
Fedor after 4 mma matches: A NOBODY!!!!!
comparing them after fedor has 30 matches is already unfair; the fact that people are even considering fedor for lesnar is amazing….FOR LESNAR. Everyone knows that if lesnar had 30 matches under his belt, he would demolish Fedor
No disrespect to Fedor though: amazing win last night and now most likely the best in the world
foxtrot what is wrong with you that brock dosnt expose any weaknesses fedor took sambo to a higher level then jiu jitsu and seeing how brock is stupid to get caught in a leg lock from mir and fedors INCREADIBLE SUBMISSION ABILITYS and his INSANE calm mental game im not trying to put you down bro but never ever compare anyone to fedor and for all I noticed fedor wasnt even at his optimum performance because of his movie filming in taiwan and his recent loss in sambo due to point difference.. 1 that sambo loss probaly has pulled him away from the fame to never film movies and make that mistake again he has a reputation to defend after this defeat on arlovski he just pulled is going to take him to even more extreme level
The kimbo people are just trolls.
Lesnar with the right gameplan has every chance against Fedor. It’s not a likely he can win, but his sheer size and mobility at that size could pose a problem for anyone. He needs to learn patience and how to think 3-4 moves ahead in a non-wrestling context. If he shoots at Fedor full force no amount of Sambo is going to stop him from hitting the mat. Pure physics.
Without a proper unification bout eventually, there will always be fanboys of either side going off on illogical tangents. Fedor will fight Barnett next, probably win, and after that he has exhausted the talent at Affliction. The only real option after is Mir or Lesnar. Now that Mir has figured out proper conditioning and some striking he is a contender against anyone. Even if he lost to Lesnar I give him better odds vs Fedor than Lesnar.
The only detail left is cage vs ring, and I am sick of the ring, I want to see what Fedor can do in a cage for a while.
there is no way in hell that lesnar beats fedor right now. I know that I say give him a few years at the rate he is going he is going to be a good fighter. brock should not be the champ right now. i hate how they give him the title shot almost automaticly. he has not earned it yet. I mean come on one win, one loss, one win , title shot. thats a load of horse s***. well dustin (my name also) I did not mean for it to sound like I even put him on the same level. Im not. LOL its stupid for anyone to think that. Fedor is the ultimate fighter and my favorite. He is the top fighter now that is. He says himself in interview after interview he will not be that guy forever, everyone loses. In the future there will be anouther fighter to take the torch from the emperor and become what we all call the best fighter as of our time. martial arts is always getting better and will continue to adapt to what best works and to who best applies it. Who knows who that fighter will be? I dont. You dont. nobody does. so who is saying that brock does not have a shot in the dark in the future( the not so distant future).
at least two years!
lol damn you guys are all noobs….anyways aa was doing good until he tried the knee…..not a stupid mistake…..but im sure most of you would have known fedor would have hit you with that right. AA was on top until he tried something and it cost him. Hats off to both of them. Oh yeah LESNAR?!?!?! HAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAH!
Note to Affliction: Tito is a jackass and hurts your product. He is a pansy and was afraid to fight Lidell under the guise of financial disagreements and shot his career in the head as a result.
Tito, you are not Joe Rogan. At least Joe Rogan knows that he is a broadcaster and could not step in the ring with anyone at any point. You on the other hand probably think in your head “Yeah I could take this guy, no problem, I’m the bad boy” during each interview you smug spineless loser. I know Trump is your butt-buddy, but you hurt his product as a washed up, whining joke ex-champion who dodged real competition, who’s training system has one potential champ in Matt Hamil who should cut his losses and get with a real team.
Thats enough Tito, you will always be remembered as the spineless caretaker of a champion ship when you wouldn’t fight anyone of quality. Any top level fighter would destroy Ken Shamrock in less than a minute.
Of course Lesnar doesn’t beat Fedor right now, but who else you gonna have him fight Cro-Can’t again? I’d love to have Couture walk into a time machine and fight 5 years younger but at this point Fedor is just too much.
The only fight out there after Barnett is Lesnar or Mir no matter how unbalanced it may be in your opinion. You have to have him fight someone, Junior Dos Santos isn’t ready, Gonzaga lost to Couture and needs a couple more dominating performances, Congo is inconsistent. So… unless there are some real diamonds coming up through the ranks I don’t see who else you have him fight. If he’ll dominate, so be it, still doesn’t mean you have him fight Mir or Lesnar.
Still doesn’t mean you don’t have him fight Mir or Lesnar rather. Hell win or lose give him Mir, I’d love to see a tactical Sambo vs Jiu Jistu battle.
I pray Arlovski doesn’t start boxing. I would love to see a rematch, in a cage, in the UFC. I think Arlovski surprised Fedor with his strength, and his ability to stop the takedown. One stupid mistake is all it takes though. I would hope this fight happens again, and Arlovksi learns from his mistake.He had him surprised and then got excited and did something dumb. One more time, no mistake, and I think we have fight of the year, and a very very close match.
I reckon Arlovski had the upper hand there – but as prev posts say, got excited, got caught.. Tis a shame, that looked like it could’ve been a great fight.
Btw Fedor vs Lesnar – are you kidding me? He wouldn’t know what to do up against someone of this calibre.
But yeh agree with gettting ‘em back in a cage – rings are bs for this type of fighting
They all said the same thing when Lesnar fought Couture, “Oh he won’t know what to do, he’s too inexperienced” he has trainers to develop a game plan for Fedor. I wouldn’t give him better than a 20-25% chance but with patience and a game plane anything is possible. Clearly Arlovski is proof of that. He started off with the right plan, anyone in his corner (and I doubt they did) telling him to throw a knee should be fired and run out of MMA. Arlovski, had Fedor off guard and defending, he proved to Fedor he could be a threat and then got greedy. He should have backed off and kept Fedor guessing. Last time Arlovski got knocked out like this he came back timid and wasn’t the same. I’m betting he is mentally finished now.
Most fighters lose because they don’t stick to the damn game plan they worked out with their well paid trainers. They panic or get greedy and they go down. Fedor is brilliant because he is unflappable, not because he posesses beyond human strength or something Lesnar can bench press a Cadillac. He just knows to stick to the bloody game plan no matter what and listen to his corner coupled with outstanding skill and conditioning.
It’s all about discipline, and no one group of people have better discipline than KGB-esque Russian fighters. He’s buddies with Putin, it’s all that KGB training.
Kimbo would get crushed by Fedor, yes Kimbo can box but other than that he is terrible, thats not even worth paying to watch. COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME!!!!
First off…to all the people bad-mouthing Brock Lesnar or calling me an ignorant little child for watching UFC events…STFU….Brock Lesnar has fought Mir (a Heavyweight Champ) and pummeled him until he got caught IN HIS FIRST UFC FIGHT!!! Then he pummeled a game Heath Herring…breaking his face with one right hand…then he faced off against a Legend..and beat him…Randy Couture is the guy who wanted Fedor…and Brock beat him.. does Brock have the experience? No probably not. Did I say he would beat Fedor? No I did not. I merely said that Fedor isn’t going to roll over a 6′3″ 265 pound agile monster….you can say what you want about Lesnar, and I will grant that Mir could beat him again…but he poses the biggest threat to Fedor…and anyone who doesn’t see that is a fu*ktard…go back to whacking off to your Pride DVDs Mick…
“fighting is as much about promoting as it is about winning. Who out there besides a Brock Lesnar vs Fedor could bring a bigger payday right now, considering Brock handles Frank Mir. Fedor deserves a payday like that win / lose! ”
The lack of intelligence from almost 99% of people who have posted above this is really disappointing.
Stop stroking Fedor, and get your heads out your own arses!

Arlovski looked good but not pacing himself there is no way he could keep that up for 5 rounds, fedor was fighting smart he wasn’t getting hurt and he was saving energy while looking for opportunities.
I dunno, the knee was kinda sloppy. From my angle it looked like Fedor also threw a sloppy punch and got lucky. Granted, you can’t train for a bad chin, but anyone that’s ever knocked out Andrei, has had that K.O. power. Both men are great fighters, I personally would love to see a rematch. Andrei has learned from this fight and he’ll come back a stronger competitor. I’m sure Fedor will be up for it.
the force of the flying knee meet the force of the punch, AAs jaw aint that weak, that situation would have knocked out anybody, it landed right on the button on the tip of the chin.
hey g71, how about you get your head out of your arse and think about what you are saying. follow the money. have you even been watching boxin over the last 15 years or so. if that doesnt tell you anything about what chaseing money will do to a sport then you are probably one of those guys that would tell your fighter to take a dive or something stupid like that. the money will eventually be there in time. time and time fedor says that he is not there for the money. he is there for the sport doing what he loves. this coming from the most dominant fighter in mma history as of yet. open your eyes!
umm i just watched the fight and to the people saying AA had him with the punches UR the funniest people out there he had only 1 or 2 solid shots that maby made fedor flinch and that was it the rest were glances or blocked and kicks and it doesnt matter how many u throw it matters on how many u land clean and there was nothing wrong with that knee attempt he just forgot to bring his guard up as he went for it like a moron
Fedor is very very calm and understands striking as well as the best ground game in MMA. Lesnar will see what power striking to setup a simple armbar win will feel like. Lesnar’s weight will actually cost him. Fedor is incredibly powerful with his strikes and after he stuns Brock he will finish with either an Arm bar or simple ground and pound because Brock is woefully out of shape compared to Fedor.
Why do I know…. lol just wait and see Brock will be like Kimbo soon.
To all the Fedor haters: What are you, an idiot?
First of all, hands down sloppiest Fedor ever. I really didn’t like what I saw from fedor at all.
All I saw was a wild man looking for a knockout. I think all the hype is making him go for the KO rather the win. I think Fedor is one of the most talented fighters in the game but, I hope he isn’t now tainted by the corrupt minds of M1 and affliction. I saw the road to reckoning, these guys are relentless when it comes to kissing ass and lifting balls. still…..Good win over a very worthy opponent, though
arlovski is still one of the best heavywights in the world. all hail King Fedor!!!!!!!!
I’m sorry but you guys are f’ing crazy. Brock will not fight Fedor ,ever. Brock will lose to Frank Mir.
A clearheaded Fedor is an unstoppable force. I think he need to choose his shots more wisely and work on straight rhythem. but power is not an factor.
For those who think that fedor was surclased by arlovsky..i think you should look again at the fight and see that arlovsky landed only 1 or 2 clear shots…you can beat fedor like that…in mma you don’t need to be the best in srtiking to be a campion or the best in ground and pound..yuo have to be better in all of them..and that whats fedor showed in his fight with arlovsky..it is true that arlovsky is a very good striker but it needs more than that to beat fedor..Frank mir is a very good opponent for fedor..but i don’t think that he represents a bigger threath than arlovsky did…i think the fight with arlovsky was the harddest fight fedor woulded have if he didin’t ko him but i`m certanly that he would win anyway…fedor is a great figher and i think he is not lucky like some of you sad.!
Fedor is a great fighter and as an even greater personality. Arlovsky did fight well and landed 1 or 2 punches.
But the fight was just beginning, Fedor was checking Arlovsky out. Feeling him out. And Arlovsky made a rooky misstake. He stopped thinking and became emotional. Trying that flying kneeshit. So? He lost! period!
FEDOR is the greatest ever….whatever happens in the future.
That was just one Shot that means RESPECT ME!! I AM THE CHAMP!! and is not by MISTAKE HOMEBOY!!!
AA: What the hell was that?? Say Whaaaaat?? it’s over??
you cant look good in every matchup fedors strategy was either to knock him out or take him down and ground and pound out a victory arlovski is actually a dangerous striker so if fedor had to back up and wait for him too get too aggressive seems to have worked the reason emilianenko is the champ is because he is versatile and does not give up easily not too mention his quick movement and a good chin find another mma competitior who has all of those qualities
Dana white is washing his chones right now from the dump he took on sat. night watching Fedor destroy two of the best X-UFC fighters.
lets admit it the UFC doesn’t have any good heavy weights to compete with affliction, some of the light heavy weights are moving down to affliction too. (i wouldn’t be surprised if i see chuck in the next affliction card vs Vetor)
(Dana if you’re looking at this post i would re-think the hall “i want to be like the WWE and i don’t want to share my fighters with any other promotions.” you’re gonna end up loosing all you’re best fighters.)
Dana should put his best lb for lb fighter vs Fedor and see them slugs it out. it doesn’t matter who’s the champ. i just want to see a belt unification
I hate the fact that these companies due to their greed manipulate the fights instead of giving the fans the real match ups. so stop being stingy with you’re fighters and unify you’re self with the others that way theirs only have 1 belt per division.
LOL @ Fedor is an even BETTER submission fighter than Mir is,
Also, I understand everyone’s frustration over Lesnar…kinda. Lesnar is not a joke of a fighter and on the ground his game plans have been defensive.
I would not under estimate any ATHLETE that works and trains hard in any technical sport, especially for a good ATHLETE.
That being said its pretty obvious even Shane Carwin would wreck Andrei & Tim Sylvia.
Those who want to see Fedor fighting Brock Lesnar so bad are just ignorant people with no taste for martial arts and more important, they do not respect Fedor.
Isthe best fighter in the world we are talking about. Fedor is getting older every second he spends in the ring is pure gold, He is not fucking Russel crow back in Roma where he has to fight any dipshit the people wish. The sad thing is that it already happened WITH TIM SYLVIA. This is MMA not some stupid circus.
To the guy who posted Fedor against Kimbo. You said 2 of the best heavyweights out tehre. What the hell are you smoking? Kimbo isn’t a MMA fighter. He is a backyard brawler and far from one of the best. In a backyard he has proven his toughness, In the cage, Nothin. Go back to watchin youtube, anyone who knows MMA will agree that Kimbo copuldn’t hold Fedors Jockstrap.
lesner is chump to the mma world, he should have never beat coture. he’s gonna lose agianst frank again. frank and fador would be a good fight to see, he has a better chance than lesner.
i agree with team bang about kimbo he’s a chump, oh yea he got knocked out by another chump
Feydor…what a legend!!! Due to only watching mainly ufc, i hadnt even heard of feydor until fairly recently when i saw Randy speaking about him. Randy rated him as the best heavyweight and Randy often seems apt when it comes to analysing fighters. Since then ive tried to get myself aqainted with some of feydors fights…..amazing! Anyone who says hes overhyped hasnt (watched him in the ring. A true laconic, humble, unassuming machine!!!! It was a little hasty to try that knee with such a dangerous opponent. I dont think a rematch would be much good for Arlovski as Feydors unbeatable aura will surely be cemented in his mind now and i cant see Arlovski being able to shake it..
Id love to see a fight between feydor and Lesnar as i cant see anyone else being able to even come close to feydors fighting ability! I dont think Lesnar would be an easy opponent but i dont think he is at feydors level and think feydor would win (of which i would relish seeing!)
You’re an idiot if you think Lesnar couldn’t beat Fedor the overhyped, out of shape non-getting in the Ocagon bum! 6′3 275 lbs. at fight time with speed/wrestling/athleticism/concrete head/power/endurance…..Couture was so overmatched against Lesnar. He’s too strong to ever get choked out and he’ll never get caught in an ankle lock again. He’ll never get KO’d so how the hell is Fedor going to win??? Once Lesnar has you on the ground he just drains you with all that weight. Keep swallowing the Fedor turd….I hear he craps gold too guys!
I forgot to call your ass out too Mick….you don’t have to watch 20 hrs. of MMA everyday to understand the sport and figure out who matches up with who. An elite level wrestler that large poses problems to anyone, period. You need to watch more MMA if you think Lesnar doesn’t have a chance to beat Fedor………YEA YEA!!!
^ your little bf already lost, and by submission, thats bitch made for a wrestler with credentials like his. He had as much time as he wanted to train jiu jitsu and still got his ass handed to him by a simple move. Lesnar is just another Sylvia granted he has sound wrestling and better overall speed, but in the end, just another Sylvia with size being relied on for the most part.. Lmao, never mind, you really must be some prepubescent noob to be thinking strength has anything to do with getting choked the fuck out in fighting, or predicting he’ll never get knocked out, that alone speaks volumes of what you know.
fedor is great, saying that i wasnt to impressed with him in this fight. besides the knockout he was gettin tagged left and right. and anybody can get knocked out any given punch. give it to fedor he won
lesnar in 2 to 3 years would pummel fedor. in that time span he would atleast be able to run with him… wrestlers tend to dominate and since its the HW division he can walk in 40 pounds bigger than his opponent

Everything Brock Lesnar has to bring to the table, Fedor has faced before, and won.
Simple as that.
You’d know that if you actually went back through all of his fights, researching his opponents, since of course if you’d seen them originally, right now you’d be laughing with the rest of the mma fanbase who HAVE been watching it on an international scale for more than a decade and are not easy fodder for UFC hype.
Is a fight between Fedor and Lesnar even a possibility in the near future? Would Fedor not be under contract with Affliction or Wamma while Lesnar is under contract with UFC? Same problem Randy had when he wanted to face Fedor. Which organization would have rights to broadcast?
It will never happen but I would love to see MMA fighters all fall under the same organization with undisputed champions of the world. Is that so hard to understand? How can there be 10 heavyweight world champions? Boxing can’t figure it out so why would MMA? Too much money involved to merge.
As far as Arlovski vs. Fedor…It was good to see AA push the action and not back up. I agree that AA would have gassed so I’m sure he was looking for an early decision. Other fighters have a few minutes to note how AA kept Fedor away with kicks and countered effectively. Throw a few elbows instead of a low percentage flying knee and you never know.
To all that say “it was a lucky punch”
This “luck” as they call it,is what makes a deferense beetwin the truly greats from the rest.When they need it,luck is allways on theyr side.It’s like sayin that Jordan got lucky with every shot he skored with the buzzer.
I think hipe played it’s role..Everyone thought Fedor will demolish Andrei and when Andrei did good,it was like Fedor on his way to loss.The fight havn’t got to the ground yet so it can be sad that they played Arlovski’s game and Fedor still won(by KO!!)I won’t even go to the reach deferense.
Like Colman sad “you make your own luck” (excuse my spelling)
I agree, instinct is not luck. If I knocked out Arlovski, then you could say luck was involved (as well as a few leprechauns). Fedor meant to throw the punch…it was his intention to land it on Arlovski’s chin…where’ the luck in that?
Stomper, to compare Sylvia to Lesnar shows what you know about MMA and those that fight within it. NOTHING! Lesnar would destroy Sylvia as fast as Fedor did. You say it was a simple move….right. He was put in an ankle lock by one of the best jiu jitsu heavyweights of all time. Frank Mir is no joke and he was lucky the ref stopped it because of strikes to the back of the head to let Mir regroup. Please quit swallowing the Fedor turd man!
Here’s the deal.
Fedor’s in the fight not to look good, but to WIN the fight.
Everyone knows Alovski’s got better hands, but this is a MMA fight. NOT a boxing match.
Fedor wisely kept a distance from AA. Drop his hands to create an opening for AA, so he will commit and make a mistake. It also helps him in intercepting AA’s kicks for a potential takedown follow by submission. (or ground and pound). We all know Fedor can destroy anyone on the ground.
Anyways, the point is Fedor fights with his head. 99% of fighters fight with their nuts.
Fedor’s the only fighter I know that doesn’t get a adrenaline rush before a fight or tighten up when he punches. When you’re fighting on adrenaline, you’re not thinking. Which might be fine for most fights, but not against Fedor.
Lesnar so far haven’t exhibited alot of skills really. Ok, so he big, and move fast, and reasonable hands. Big deal. Fedor is 2X faster than him in punches. 100X better than him on the ground.
I can guarantee you that Fedor can get out of his famous “hammer fist”. This guy’s so prone for submission when he does that thing. It’s just that most people cannot overcome those fist.
All you have to do is train specifically for that and it’s over for him.
Remember how Rampage does him atomic drop? Griffin found a way to get out of that. People have seen you fight, and the same old technique won’t work every time. People know what to expect from now on. In fact, one might take a punch and fake going to the mat. Lesnar goes in for the kill thinking hammer fist …. next thing you know, he’s going to tap out.
I would like to see the fight though. That should bring Lesnar back to earth.
Fedor up in the heezie !! What up yo yo..
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LISTEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If your look at the replay carefully If the knee would of connected it would have been Arlovski with the KO. Not taking anything away from Fedor, Hes one of my favorite fighters ever, just don’t think it was Arlovski that got beat the F up, technically the knee was a good move but fate had dibs on fedor. give arlovski credit though ya’ll, that boy is bad. anybody that goes in the ring with fangs is a F’ing G real talk.
Big up FEDOR.
Wow, you people are all so brutal….honestly…well..at least the people who sit there bashing people cause they are speaking their minds..
UFC is the best MMA organization worldwide….and to say that Brock Lesnar doesnt deserve to fight Fedor is crazy…cause 2 years ago people would have never said that Rashad Evans would be the LHW champion of the world…but you knwo what…fluke or not…Rashad Evans is undefeated..and thats with some serious wins under his belt…
Brock Lesnar has improved SERIOUSLy over the last few fights…. and he really took it out on Heath Herring not to mention Randy COuture….
and Brock Lesnar is friggin young too.
B.L is the new face of the heavyweight division,…and as it stands right now…hes got the belt too..
Fedor might beat Brock…but Brock could just as easily beat Fedor…
GLASSJAW THEORY is BS!
Obviously those who say ‘glassjaw’ have never fought in their lives or just don’t know wtf they are talking about.
Every man has the SAME CHIN, different strength. A pro boxer told me that and I know from experience. Alexander just need more power. Fedor looks a little slow in this video. Still Powerful
stomper wtf are u talking about? who said anything about strength… i said weight… and on top level competition.. you are over weight @ 1 1/2 pound more than the max. EX. (170 cant weigh more than 171.5)… so to think a dominate wrestler and great athlete who can walk in at 280 on the actual night of the fight and fedor is 225ish wont stand a chance is borderline retarded.. MMA is the most unpredictable sport that there is…. u must be the noob
1. i was talking about andre and the sport in general, anyone can get knocked out.. we’ve seen that w GSP and Serra
2. strenght and weight are different and on this level, 40 pounds is alot to deal with
3. im at a loss of words by how u must feel smart using the word prepubescent when u have a caveman name like stomper… awesome.. lol then u said bitch made hahahhaha
4. my comment was humble while u deepthroated all fedor could give u. nezt is the facial
Bla Bla Bla!! AA is not even the shadow of EF….stop writing BS!!! AA is not even a Dunky with gloves….cant see that? or you think that Fedor’s bomb was by Mistake?? too much Brain for the Dunky !!!
amazing fight, i knew fedor would win, he is a smart fighter with heavy hands and accurate hands, amazing fight.
Belski….saying that BL will never get knoicked out???! I dont know if you truly understand physics and biomechanics but anyone with a jaw and a chin CAN get knocked out, regardless of how much muscle they may have around that. And if anyone is going to knock you out, there is a good bet that Feydor will do it. To say that he is too strong to be choked out is absurd aswell. You talked about how he drains you with his size when he gets you on he ground. Im sure thats true but Randy had a lot of success getting out from under him and im sure Feydor would too. If you havnt watched much Feydor, you might be fooled into thinking that Feydor has only beaten a few ‘has beens’ in Silvia and Arlovski. But Feydor didnt just defeat these former dominant UFC heavy weights but he steamed through them, defeating both in the first round and Silvia in something like 8 seconds!!!!?? Not only having these acomplishments under his belt but he defeated Nogiera….in his prime! Clearly Feydors grappling, jui jitsu and ground game are pretty spectacular! And for the moment at least a lot better than BL’s. A fight between BL and FE might be nigh on impossible to arrange due to contractual obligations but surely it will always be in BL’s mind that he has not proven himself as the best heavyweight until he fights FE. Dana needs to stop bad mouthing FE in a puerile disrespectfull fashion and needs to do whatever it takes to arrange what would be one of the most highly anticipated match ups in MMA history. I reiterate Belski, if you think Feydor is overrated, you should check out what the experts and the fighters think about him. Its time to stop playing with your WWE toys in the bath and jerking off over Lesnars muscles!
You guys wanna see someone get knock out…. Well Kimbo is the guy who can knock anyone out. And yes Kimbo can knock Fedor or Lesner out anytime with one punch and I am standing by that statement. Kimbo is truly the #1 p4p.
Looked fixed…that little jab = devastating knockout. I don’t think so.
what morons on this site, to even suggest things like “kimbo best pound for pound” or “the fight was fixed”!!!
I will tell you this fedor was not lookin good, however hes not stupid, he knows just as well as i do about “glass jaws” and arlovski has one of the weakest as is evident n his previous fights.
ill tell you this though arlovski looked great, by far the best i have ever seen him look forward to seein more maybe back in the ufc
as much as i hate brock, he is a serious threat to anybody the dude a monster cant wait to see mir vs lesnar again. GO MIR.
hopefully we will see lesnar vs fedor in the coming years
barnet vs fedor shoul be good look for fedor to attack barnet strength and dominate classic fedor style
Oh by the way “glass jaw theory” is legit has to do with neck strength and little with the actual jaw
what morons on this site, to even suggest things like “kimbo best pound for pound” or “the fight was fixed” F@$#%#! JOKES!!!!

elite xc was basically fixing fights, why is it so crazy to think that affliction might be doing the same thing?
@ Shablaam
What do you mean by “basically”
Elite XC payed Seth Petruzelli not to wrestle with Kimbo, and who knows what else. For all we know they could have been completely fixing fights. The punch that Fedor landed on Arlovski had nothing behind it. Don’t get me wrong I’m a huge Fedor fan. Something just seemed a little fishy to me there. If you think I’m another “moron” then you are entitled to your opinion. But if you thinking fixing matches in every sport doesn’t happen them I’m afraid you have the wool pulled over your eyes.
actually…I think you are right. I dont even think that was a punch. I think Fedor was trying to block the knee. for real
Oh and Fedor needs to be in the UFC if he is going to be considered the top heavyweight. No one ever got to the top by fighting sloppy seconds. I cant take this seriously.
Arlovski should get a rematch. That was a lucky shot. Fedor is great, but Arlovski has the skills it takes to beat anyone. Anyone can be caught with a hard punch and knocked out. Fedor is great, but if he’s a true champion he should give Arlovski one more shot.
After watching the end of the fight again, i’m now convinced that Arlovski laid down for Fedor. The right hand had nothing on it. Arlovski must’ve had a huge payday off of this fight.

It’s really sort of strange they gave Lesnar the title so early in his career. Lyoto Machida has a 14-0 and still no title shot. I understand that the LHW could be considered the most competitive weight class, but Machida is ready. As for Lesnar VS Fedor, I think Lesnar would put up a damn good fight, can’t see Fedor pulling this on him. Fedor would win in the end, the fact that Lesnar lost to Mir from a Leglock could be considered a bit embarrassing, although Mir has really pulled himself together.
I’m a fan of Fedor, but I don’t hate Lesnar at all, I kind of enjoyed watching him beat the hell out of Heath Herring.
i think fedor just got lucky with that punch…if the fight goes on fedor probably lost it coz arlovski have
great speed and quick kicks. he was just a lil bit careless at that time…(arlovski)

Did you buy your Fightingball with your favourite fighter ??
a rematch will go in arlovski’s way…lucky punsh..that fight goes into the second round and its a different fight
Good move by Fedor; calm and collective.
After he got pushed into the corner, he pretend to lower his guard. That’s why Arlovski thought he could jump in and knee him…well, he jumped into a wrecking ball.
arlovski is my favourite fighter, mainly because i like speedy guys… yes fedor looked slow, but his incredibly hard chin, fantastic punching power in any situation makes him the best. what ’s annoying is there are no flaws, cool as ice mentally a different class on the floor paticuarly ground and pound, even his submissions are top 3. can anyone actually say he is not the best or at least top three in every department.
bottom line there is no competion, barnett will be KO’d even quicker.
