Strikeforce Signs Fedor Emelianenko

[mobb13]

M-1 and Fedor officially join forces with Strikeforce | M-1Global.com

Kind of a shocker

[Andrew_The_Man]

The UFC didnt want to co-promote so where else should he have gone? Dream? hell no....plus Fedor is in contract with M1 Global so he had to be with them for 3 more fights. I dont know why everyone is bashin and dissin Fedor now, yeah he didnt go to the UFC but who in the UFC is a tough challenge for Fedor....sure we would all like to see Fedor smash Brock but who else besides Brock? Carwin hasnt been tested, Cain is very new to the sport still, Kongo only has a punchers chance, Herring already got his A$$ beat bad by Fedor....so please somebody tell me who would actually give Fedor a challenge besides Brock? IDK about you guys but id love to see Fedor fight Alistair Overeem. I also think Overeem would KO Brock. OH YEAH FEDOR IS FINALLY IN A CAGE!!

Carwin, Velasquez, Cro-cop rematch for the hell of it, Randy would be sick, Nog would be cool, Brcock, Kongo, Dos Santos when he's better. Not many, but Would be more exciting if he was in the UFC.

Not bad. Overeem is a stiff match because he's got knees and grappling. Rogers not so much.

Well, at least now Fedor has time to get some experience in the cage fighting nobody's until you gets to the UFC.

I don't like that one bit......Very ignorant statement.....

He shouldn't bashed at all. I say...Strikeforce has 3 top 10 HW's right now on my list, UFC has 4 or 5, soo...................I think Fedor made a wise decision. Dana wanted Fedor for money plain and simple, Dana didn't care about Fedor, and him and M-1 didn't forget all that **** talk on Fedor. I think Fedor did I wise thing.

Top 10's in UFC - Brock, Nogueira, Couture, Carwin, and maybe Mir, okay. Not Kongo, as much as I love him, he needs to prove it again, same with Cain, he is close but not there yet, and who else, Herring? Kimbo? Cro Cop? NO thanks!

Then Strikeforce has THREE top 10's- Overeem, Werdum, and Rogers, so....

Think about it, who would he fight in the UFC, all 5 of the top 10's? NO! He might fight twice or three times in UFC in about 2 years. But he signs with Strikeforce and M-1 gets to co-promote with Strikeforce which was the only way that M-1 would have it, and Fedor gets to fight 3 of the best HW's in the world. UFC wouldn't co-promote, and they wouldn't offer what he wanted, and apparently Strikeforce did better. Fedor made a wise decision, and he will be fighting some of the best. I don't care if Fedor fights in UFC ever, i don't care if he losses his next 20 fights, he is still the best fighter to ever walk this planet and he always will be the best ever, plain and simple, he has always fought and dominated the best. Fedor will be fighting top notch fighters and getting more respect for it, and his managing is happy as well..


Don't make posts like that again please Mayhem, that was horrible man come on.

I am pretty disappointed....
i think i agree with DW this time

Fedor is a f---ing joke," UFC President Dana White responded Monday after learning that Emelianenko had signed with Strikeforce. “He turns down a huge deal and the opportunity to face the best in the world to fight nobodies for no money!

I don't think fedor is doing what the fan wants... he just want to make his company M-1 as successful as possible before retiring.... whatever, i will still support him... but i am very disappointed.

No No No, you got me all wrong. I was just saying that he has never fought in a cage before. I wasn't saying that he sucks or anything I'm just saying that all of his fights have been in a ring. I'm a huge Fan of Fedor's.

But yeah, there are 3 fights right now that are gonna be great !!! Personally, Brett Rodgers is the guy I want to see Fedor fight the most. I mean he has torn through every fighter he has come across.

[Andrew_The_Man]

Carwin has only fought 1 legit HW....he has very much to prove plus hes been takin down easily by gonzaga. Nog is done for, garunteed he will not be signing again once his contract is up, say what you want but them beating he took, put him in slo mo. Couture is legit but hes old, he started MMA way too late. Only one in UFC that can do "something" is Lesnar but he would NEVER beat Fedor. I respect Fedor for what hes done, Overeem would be an awsome fight, overeem is 6'5 and is bigger then hell, his speed and striking has always been very good I thought. Rogers would be fun to watch him fight Fedor, Fedor would clinch and use his sambo like he always does, once hes down his will get beat down Gary Goodridge Style lol
