My head is still spinning from the Lesnar-Carwin fight last month. Not seeing much on the horizon that excites me though.

Fedor might still fight Allistair. That's gonna be really interesting.

Fedor is a fucking joke. All this time he's been pussying out on fighting the UFC champ and now that his aura of invincibility is gone, I don't think anyone cares about him anymore.

A Fedor hater .

The guy has the art of hitting down to a science. His entire workout regiment is based around developing explosive strength, not to look like a body builder. Tim Sylvia has attested that no one hits harder than him.

And Fedor's got world class Sambo skills to help him in the clinch and on the ground.

He's the real deal. Is he the best in the world? Who knows. But he's definitely one of the best.

Listen man, I'm not knocking his talent. I know how good he is. I'm knocking his business side. Its my understanding that Dana White has bent over backwards to get Fedor to fight the top UFC fighters and from what I understand, Fedor has been incredibly difficult. You want to be the best, you gotta fight the best and he doesn't. For what its worth, I think Lesnar or Carwin would take him apart. Just my opinion.

Carwin got paid 40K for his last fight with Lesnar. I think Dana's definition of a 'generous' offer is probably different than what most fighters think is generous.

Dana could have had Fedor if he was just willing to share the promoting, but he has been very open about wanting a monopoly over all of MMA.

I applaud people like Fedor and Couture for standing up to that sort of thing.

I got a completely different story about Fedor. Of course, thats the thing with hearsay. Neither you nor I are insiders so who knows what really went on.
