What legacy? Emelianenko vs. Choi planned for New Year's Eve

I wonder if the “Techno Goliath” is related to the “Techno Viking” on you tube..lol

This guy is a damn freak of nature…first he is asian… second how the f*** is he able to even walk right?, let alone strike some one… Holy F***!!!

So.. we lose Fedor to this M-1 thing. Now we get THIS for his first fight? I really wish we could all just forget about Fedor… I will start to refer to him in past tense… like someone who has passed away… “Boy.. wasn’t he great”.. We may never get to see him against top talent again, only guys who the UFC doesn’t want to resign, or didn’t want in the first place.

so retarded….m-1 is going to collapse before it even starts

So much for considering me the #1 fighter in the world. With competition like that, it will be hard to make a case for Fedor to retain his #1 ranking. People complain about non-exclusive contracts, but there is something to be said for them also. I don’t see M-1 surving or let alone try to build themselves as a legitimate competing organization to the UFC. The “rent-a-fighter” contract will be their demise.

uhhh….How is Fedor still #1? Lame. It will be funny if he looses, its not going to happen though.

KNEES!

I would hardly say WHO in regards to Hong Man-Choi he is very well known in Japan and the fight makes sense for NYE (the biggest event of the year), the Japanese are all about the merit of the spectacle not necessarily the merit. Anyway would be brilliant if Hong man beat him.

Fedor fights the 7’2 Choi. Next up the bearded lady.

“Now Choi looks to keep his undefeated streak alive by upsetting the world’s former number one heavyweight — the most feared man on the planet — and improving his impressive record to 2-0.”

To be fair Choi also has an 12-3 K1 record.

Good point. Made the distinction.

Sad.

Uh that would be Fedor as opposed to me.

Its funny how japanese put Fedor up against these gigantic fighters like Choi and that giant black dude so that it looks like the fight is a complete mismatch and the bigger guy is going to kill Fedor…..and so when Fedor does knock them the hell out everyones like damn hes soo awesome cause he knocked out a guy that was 3-5 times his size. In reality it is actually a better matchup to put him up against someone his size with tons of skill. FEDOR IS NOT #1. I dont give a damn what anybody says. EDDIE SANCHEZ is #1..lol. jk

the interesting thing here is that the tale of the tape might list Hong Man Choi at 7’2", but since he never stops growing, he could be 8’7" by the end of the second round.

Hence my friends the pitfalls of a non-exclusive contract. Se la vi.

Nice Pic..hehehehheheheehe..but still sad.

lmao at JG’s comment, I honestly did not expect fedor’s first opponent to be anyone with particularly good credentials. Its funny i was skeptical of a fight with Monson on Rizzo, but now i realize those fights make more sense!

WOW, once again we are all let down by Fedor, but i wouldnt have expected more from him

I don’t think Fedor’s first loss in seven years of fighting will be at the hands of that guy.

I agree this doesn’t make sense, Fedor continues to get fights with nobodys and I am sorry but beating a big retarded looking giant is not gonna make him the greatest. Randy is the greatest HW on the planet at 75 years old.

This fight is more for Fedor continuing his trend of entertaining the Japenese people, by fighting on New Years Eve. This fight is for them, not for Americans.

The Japanese know of Choi from his days in K-1/MMA and of Fedor from MMA. This is designed to sell to them, not to the self-centred American fan who thinks it’s only about entertaining them.

Until Fedor fights someone of real competition he should lose the Numbe 1 rank. Anderson Silva!

I will be rooting for the ‘Techno Goliath’ to do the ‘Electric Boogaloo’ all over Fedor. I will not be buying this fight, if anyone does – you are either retarded or still have your mouth wrapped around Fedor’s nuts, BUT I will definitely be rooting for Fedor to lose. The odds of him losing are probably about 1,000,000,000,000 to 1, but hey, that’s still a puncher’s chance!

im looking at this like fedor is a pussy and is afraid to fight a top 10 …no longer #1 in my books

SCREW THE TECHNO GOLIATH!! I would rather see Fedor fight Keith Jardines twin the TECHNO VIKING. He looks like he would put more hurt on Fedor then this goofy ass giant would!!

Crazy fucking Russians are pimping Fedor to other organizations. I wonder what it would cost to bring that sweet ass over to the UFC for one night.

That is the gayest s*** i have ever seen in my whole life….

This is completely retarded, I have nothing else to say.

theres too many jokers on here commenting on things you dont even know about or even done research on – Hong man choi, in my opinion would wreck most of the UFC HW division – this is a good fight for Fedor, its not like he’s going to retire any time soon, he’s just gonna beat up everyone when the time is right for him

This fight is more for Fedor continuing his trend of entertaining the Japenese people, by fighting on New Years Eve. This fight is for them, not for Americans.

Fair enough, but it still doesn’t make any sense for Fedor or especially M1. He could probably please Japanese fans just as much by fighting a more distinguished star in Japan.

I can’t believe MMAmania let such an ingnorant author with his article to post here.

For you, Fedor’s haters: This is going to be just a show… A show for Japanees and Korean fans… This fight has nothing to do with Fedor’s 6 official fights for M-1 Global. His first fight for M-1 Global will take place next year in US.

Secon, Choi is not such a bad opponent. He’s one of the best fighter in K-1. He’s got great striking skills and power. Those who fought with him say it’s like hitting a tree.

True MMA fan would watch that fight anyway.

Great show if you like the Circus.

Great show if you like the Circus

Speaking of jokesters, your boy, Hong Man Choi, weighs over 350 pounds. So unless he can cut about 90 lbs, we won’t be seeing him in the UFC. Somebody at Hong Man Choi’s height CANNOT be athletic enough to seriously compete in MMA. The only fight I would like to see Hong Man Choi in is against Antonio Big Foot Sylva. Big Foot would literally KILL him. Speaking of Big Foot, he just fought his last fight at 265 lbs, so HE can make HW, but not Hong Man Choi.

Now Choi looks to keep his undefeated streak alive by upsetting the world’s former number one heavyweight — the most feared man on the planet — and improving his impressive MMA record to 2-0.

Since when is winning 1 fight a “streak”? Also, how impressive would a record of 2-0 be? Well, if the his second win does come from Fedor then yeah, it would be impressive.

How does Choi go from being matched up with Lesnar, who was making his mma debut, to fighting Fedor who it the best heavyweight in the world? Pretty big step up in competition if you ask me.

Nice main event…is Choi even on the top 50 rankings? Who realy cares about this fight? It doesn’t prove anything for Fedor.

Buster Douglas did it in Japan, why not Choi? UPSET!

Please let it happen.

Does anyone else think that Dana is loving this?

WHATTTT??????
Heres 7 fighters that would go right through him:

Big Nog
Cro Cop
Randy
Kongo
Sylvia
Arlovski
Vera

You must think that the heavyweight division is made up of only one person..Eddie Sanchez. lol.

…“Now Choi looks to keep his undefeated streak alive by upsetting the world’s former number one heavyweight — the most feared man on the planet…”——- FEDOR is still #1 Mr. Holland! If Fedor is not #1 who is???

Jesse Holland you need to get off the ingnorance pills… Pls do, it’s not good for you…

Dana is licking his chops right now. Main course M1 global.

Since when is winning 1 fight a “streak”? Also, how impressive would a record of 2-0 be? Well, if the his second win does come from Fedor then yeah, it would be impressive.

How do you know? And if its not then are they going to air it on cable??

don’t forget brock will be #1 heavy in no time

Is it really an upset if someone 7’2" 350lbs beats someone 6 ftish 230… no matter how good Fedor is he is gonna have a tough time striking with thi monster. This beast throws straight jabs with ko power.

This fight is more for Fedor continuing his trend of entertaining the Japenese people, by fighting on New Years Eve. This fight is for them, not for Americans.

The Japanese know of Choi from his days in K-1/MMA and of Fedor from MMA. This is designed to sell to them, not to the self-centred American fan who thinks it’s only about entertaining them.

The only problem is this is in the first bit of attention M-1 is recieving as an MMA organization. Not there co endeavor into professional wrestling. Entertaining fans and making Fedor a little money is all fun and well, but not a great fight for a company wanting to be seen as a legitimant MMA organization.

How do you know? And if its not then are they going to air it on cable??

You probably can watch it on internet the next day. I’ve read that this fight will be aired in Japan and Korea only… not even in Russia

Who the hell thinks this is going to be a competitive fight? Choi’s just going to get taken down and submitted. Easy win for Fedor. No matter how much of a good tree like striker choi may be, he can’t do much from his back which is where fedor being the intelligent guy he is, will take this fight.

Hopefully this isn’t a sign of things to come and it’s just a showcase for the Japanese fans as Zheka has pointed out.

it’s a fight that apparently could be had on short notice(how many top fighters would fight Fedor with only a month’s notice?) and the fans would pay to see.

Fedor haters need to hate intelligently, it’s getting really sad how low u have sunk.

Dana’s right! He’s certainly not the #1 contender anymore! Why are they doing this?

You must think that the heavyweight division is made up of only one person..Eddie Sanchez. lol.

I’d pick Sanchez over Choi to be honest, lol

This sucks. I always had the mindset that I’d watch him fight no matter where he went, but no way in hell would I watch this. Who is he fighting next, Dakota Fanning? Ugh

Well, I don’t know… Did you see Fedor vs Semmy Shilt fight? Fedor had a hard time trying to submitt Semmy so fight went to a dicision…

im surprised fedors handlers havent dug up andre the giant’s corpse for fedor to fight. what a joke! and why is fedor still being refered as the pridefc hw champion. he didnt sign with zuffa, they own the rights to everything pride. im sure if he still tries to claim this there will be a lawsuit. former pridefc hw champ is more appropriate.

im looking foward to it. there really isnt anyone great that he can fight at heavyweight.

id rather watch this then him vs monson or vs middle weights or light heavyweight.

who doesnt like a freak show? cant wait and i hope fedor destroys him. then again i would enjoy it even more if fedor lost but i really want that randy vs fedor fight to matter when it happens and it wont if either guy loses.

this isnt any different to me then randy vs nog its like who cares? so if randy wins he beat the guy fedor crushed 2 and a half times? but hey if randy loses then what, he cant be the best in the world if he cant beat fedor sloppy seconds. at least fedor is giving everyone a chance to beat the best fighter in the world.

Choi has the biggest face i’ve ever seen.

VM – your clearly a hardcore UFC fan – but i couldnt care less id Choi came to the UFC, this move with Fedor is just the start of MMA growing without the UFC or any of its restrictions – maybe the UFC should have a super heavy weight , maybe not, but this just gives other organistaions the chance to do something different.
And as your an MMA fan, you should know that no body will “KILL” anyone. All these big guys make good matchups for eachother, Sylva, Sylvia, Choi…n im sure theres a few more out there.

how in the world can anyone say that feder is no good cant beat up a sixth grader is the worst fighter in the world.randy got his ass kicked twice by a washed up liddell until he gets his ass kicked by anyoe how can anyone say that.how meny pride fighters hold ufc titles quite a lot.

It looks like someone put Choi’s head in a vise and just kept on cranking!!!

I’d pick Sanchez over Choi to be honest, lol

This sucks. I always had the mindset that I’d watch him fight no matter where he went, but no way in hell would I watch this. Who is he fighting next, Dakota Fanning? Ugh

OF COURSE ITS NOT DAKOTA FANNING!! Just use most of the letters in Fedors name and you have his opponent silly tits. Its FEDOR VS. FRODO..LMAO!!!

Choi’s first MMA fight
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dQpgFKVR68

dad gum he’s a big fellow…

i do think this is kind of a weak fight for fedor, but choi does move pretty good for a big guy and does have good stand up here some people he faced that you may have heard of
bob sap
jerome le banner
semmy schilt
remy bonjasky
gary goodrich
its wierd seeing semmy and sap look small in a fight, and i do think it will take fedor one second to take him to the ground and end it,but he is not just chump with no credentials.

That is the gayest s*** i have ever seen in my whole life….

Ahh, it is good to see Fedor’s man thong, AKA Zheka, back in the forum. I can’t beleive you are defending this travisty of a fight. This is just a spectacle in for a quick buck. Fedor is losing credibility by doing the fight (argue all you want, the proof is in the postings; half of the people posting on this blog used to be Fedor fans) He gains nothing by the fight. He is expected to win, and if somehow (100 to 1 chance) he lost, he falls of the MMA planet.

Jesse Holland you need to get off the ingnorance pills… Pls do, it’s not good for you…

This could be, just could be, the dumbest post I have read. It is so moronic I can’t even address it.

Fedor had a chance to fight the best in the world but went out like a bitch. This M-1 gig won’t last, the guy chose the path of least resistence, he’s so on love with his own legend that he’s having his handlers choose the weakest opponents they can find. Give it time, Fedor will drop his guard and will lose. Randy would have smashed him!

dude looks like a Japanese Rocky Dennis.

Is someone else writing the articles at the moment? The style has changed. It’s become more cynical and sarcastic as of late I reckon.

I’m getting fed up of even reading about Fedor. Lets be 100% honest, lots of people only think he’s the top boy coz they’ve seen a few HL reels on youtube. I’ve watched hours of the guy and yes he’s very good but unbeatable? Not in a millin years. Only coz he won’t fight the top boys anymore. he’s out of shape, crap and boring to watch. Couture would’ve kicked his ass and so would plenty of other HWs in the UFC at the minute

I am taking Choi to win via flying gogoplata heelhook armbar.

Choi’s first MMA fight

LOL, dude that guys trying to get away and scramble and Choi just grabs him by the thigh (with one hand) and drags him back like you would a cat by the tail.

Thats one scary guy to have on top of you, I imagine he would be nearly impossible to submit.

I am taking Choi to win via flying gogoplata heelhook armbar.

NO NO NO!!! I think the whole event will end up in chaos with Japanese people running around screamin “GODZILLA” when Choi walks out. LMAO!!

Forget Fedor!, He is dodging real fighters that are a threat to his unbeaten title!

This is a classic case of making MMA more entertainment than sport; more so than in the UFC.

I can’t believe MMAmania let such an ingnorant author with his article to post here.

Talk about the pot and the kettle…

Dana’s right! He’s certainly not the #1 contender anymore! Why are they doing this?

I know right, this is the equivalent of Randy Couture having his next fight be in Cage Rage against Manute Bol.

im surprised fedors handlers havent dug up andre the giant’s corpse for fedor to fight.

LOL…oh man that was gold…pay attention zheka…these are the kinds of posts you should be making…

Ahh, it is good to see Fedor’s man thong, AKA Zheka, back in the forum. I can’t beleive you are defending this travisty of a fight.

i thoght you said be 100%honest, fedor went to m1 for the money like alot of people would have done, he has already proven himself.and there not alot of people in the ufc that could beat him only randy and gonzaga would stand a chance the rest that could are orginally from pride and have already lost to him, and he is not a boring fighter, so if your going to say be honest than please be honest.

But NOT in MMA. His one mma win is against Bobby Ologun. I’d hardly call him a ‘real vet’. Unless he recently quit fighting and got his veterinary license.

LOL…damn…you guys are on point today

Well said.

Choi should be 7’8" by NYE

On one of the last threads, people were calling Fedor “God” “the best there ever was” and so on. They also criticized anyone who thought fedor was simply laying low in fighting lesser talent. Where as guys in the UFC are constantly asking for the toughest figthers.

Until Fedor fights a real challenger I’m out.

I will be rooting for the ‘Techno Goliath’ to do the ‘Electric Boogaloo’ all over Fedor. I will not be buying this fight, if anyone does – you are either retarded or still have your mouth wrapped around Fedor’s nuts, BUT I will definitely be rooting for Fedor to lose. The odds of him losing are probably about 1,000,000,000,000 to 1, but hey, that’s still a puncher’s chance!

I have stated on this site that I would pretty much pay $40 bucks to see Fedor fight anyone. But not to fight this guy. This has to be a joke. The best fighter in the world, after being absent from the ring for a year, is comming back to fight this Giant goofball? Fedor must really not care about his legacy, because I am a huge supporter of his but come on. Right about now Pedro Rizzo doesnt seem like such a bad opponent anymore. Hopefully he will drop in the rankings, and maybe that will light a fire under his ass to get to the UFC and fight someone decent.

Dana White has to be laughing his ass off over this news!

I am taking Choi to win via flying gogoplata heelhook armbar.

lol

UPDATE: Hayato “Mach” Sakurai, Tatsuya Kawajiri, Hidehiko Yoshida and Shinya Aoki could also compete on this New Year’s Eve card, according to FightNetwork.com. Perhaps it’s not so bad after all (sans the main event).

But they are probably matching Sakurai up with Julie Kedzie and Aoki up with Wayne Weems…

randys great he still got koed not once but twice by a washed up liddell it does not matter no one has beat feder what do you all think feder would loose to all mma fighters in the world.white droped the ball and dident pay feder or couture enough money k1 did

its funny how alot of you talk shit on fedor and say he has not fought anyone in 2yrs,then call randy #1.don’t get me wrong i like randy and would want to see him beat fedor than nog than retire the best but that won’t happen.you say randy is the best h.w who has he beaten tim sylvia(he’s good but definetly not great),gonzaga he may be great but has alot to prove the only noteworthy person he beat is crocop who most of you say sucks now so what does that prove. he beat to middle rank h.w and you call him the best,you forget he went to lhw cause he got beat by barnett and ricco,wheres ricco now not in the ufc randy had to tap do to blows to the face.i hope randy beats them all but its not realistic.

Fedor doesnt care about the american view of his fighting pride was about the spectacle…Not just the fight itself but the show of it…Fedor is continuing his tradition and getting a win against a legit k1 striker in the process..And i swear the first person that wants to say choi isnt legit in k1 they need to be reminded of the fact that he stayed in ther against Jerome Le Banner

randys great he still got koed not once but twice by a washed up liddell it does not matter no one has beat feder what do you all think feder would loose to all mma fighters in the world.white droped the ball and dident pay feder or couture enough money k1 did

Wow, an entire paragraph without getting one fact straight. That is some kind of record! Chuck was in the middle his longest win streak at the top of his game, Randy, White and Fedor said it wasn’t about the money, it was about exclusive contract rights and promoting disputes. Finally, it is M-1 not K-1.

Mania, do you think you can put up an MMA IQ test that bloggers have to take before they are allow to make postings? Nevermind, that would destroy all the fun of getting to play Captain Condesendo. ROFL:):)

But they are probably matching Sakurai up with Julie Kedzie and Aoki up with Wayne Weems…

LOL. “I wanted to prove that I was a warrior!” Oh, I do miss that guy

Why some of you are so serious and crying about everything?

Ok, Fedor is not at UFC as he should, but I think this fight is still interesting.

Size/strenght does matter. Why would there be otherwise weight classes? And do you really hate to watch a monsterman get beaten by more skilled much smaller man? It’s entertainment (still real mma fight, not wrestling)!

I am curious if Fedor will try to knock Choi out, only Mighty Moe has succesfully done that before.

Anyway… Fedor by RNC 1st round

Check out Choi at this japanese human tetris video!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ll2kajMH2u0

it’s a fight that apparently could be had on short notice(how many top fighters would fight Fedor with only a month’s notice?) and the fans would pay to see.

Fedor haters need to hate intelligently, it’s getting really sad how low u have sunk.

The only time u comment is when the topic is about Fedor. We are not Fedor haters we are all entitled to our opinions so if you don’t like it start up your own little chat room for people that love Fedor and just talk about how great he is. He almost lost to cro cop, cro cop has done nothing in the UFC, if i were Fedor seeing how cro cop has been a bust I would be scared of the UFC also.

so who is the best than since he almost lost to crocop and this guy beat that guy and whatever, back up your posts with something better than that.other wise barnett beat randy and crocop beat barnett so crocop can beat randy according to your logic,and ricco beat randy and sylvia beat ricco but wait randy beat sylvia?your reasoning dose not stand up.

I don’t hate Fedor, it’s kind of like he’s on a circus road show, since they couldn’t find a respectable opponent they turned it into a spectacle, David VS Goliath… Silly, almost WWF feel to it.

If M-1 gets their shit together that will revive my interest. Fedor needs to fight a top heavyweight from the UFC that he has not fought … otherwise ‘YAWN’

Choi’s first MMA fight
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dQpgFKVR68

WOW.. ive only seen him fight in K-1 never an mma match.. That fight was messed up , the weight difference between those guys was crazy.

so retarded….m-1 is going to collapse before it even starts

im getting tha same feeling man

Fedor fights the 7’2 Choi. Next up the bearded lady.

Quote of the day for sure…lol, then on to wrestling a bear.. Everyone! Do Not Buy This Fight!

Fedor fights the 7’2 Choi. Next up the bearded lady.

Quote of the day for sure… lol, then he wrestles a grizzley bear.. DO NOT BUY THIS FIGHT!

I know right, this is the equivalent of Randy Couture having his next fight be in Cage Rage against Manute Bol.

I think I just shit my pants from laughter.

Manute Bol vs. Randy Couture.

Mugsy Boges vs. Fedor for the Heavyweight Championship.

At the next M-1 Event after New Years Eve it is going to be an MMA First.

Fedor will be fighting his toughest competition yet.

Fedor vs. Marlon Sims, Wayne Weems, Noah Thomas, Blake Bowman and Jason Thacker in an 5 Man elimination match!!!

Buy your tickets now.

Fedor could fight 5 times in one night!!!

This is a HUGE fight for the fans of Japan. If you don’t like it then it’s not for you :/

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

crap on fedor, he should move down the rankings even with a devastating win. does anyone know why ufc has a hw limit of 265lbs? why not have it at three hundred or no limit? does it have to do with sanctioning?

As a HUGE Fedor fan I am stunned. Choi is a great K-1 fighter, but WTF? I see Fedor not throwing a single punch, taking him down and getting a quick sub. And then what? Whoopdee-freakin-doo. As one of the Schmucks who checked the internet blogs every day this summer hoping for news of Fedor Vs. Couture I find my self becoming bitter over the prospect that all the Fedor haters have legitimate claim that he will never face top heavy weight opposition. Sigh.

Since when is winning 1 fight a “streak”? Also, how impressive would a record of 2-0 be? Well, if the his second win does come from Fedor then yeah, it would be impressive.

How does Choi go from being matched up with Lesnar, who was making his mma debut, to fighting Fedor who it the best heavyweight in the world? Pretty big step up in competition if you ask me.

I think I just shit my pants from laughter.

Buy your tickets now.

Fedor could fight 5 times in one night!!!

Damn I hate freak fights!

I’m not a fan of any of these two fighters, but if Fedor don’t win by TKO I’ll sell my scrotum on eBay!

i cant believe this is the best fight m1 could come up with. there has to be someone out there not signed with another orgination without going to ripleys believe it or not to sign a fighter, who will he fight next the wolf boy from mexico or even in a double header twins attached at the hips. Fedor could be making history instead he is the newest low budget side show attraction.

fightnetwork is reporting now that this fight is not a sure thing.

I think I just shit my pants from laughter.

Manute Bol vs. Randy Couture.

Mr.NC17, Thanks for commenting on my Fedor vs Manute Bol comment. I was actually laughing at my desk when I typed it. I actually thought that it would have gotten a few more laughs. Remember – Manute Bol competed in that Celebrity Boxing, so he just may be as qualified as Hang Man Choi.

did manute bol fight the top guys in k-1

LOL…oh man that was gold…pay attention zheka…these are the kinds of posts you should be making…

You better ask mmamania to take your crapy post away. Fedor is not fighting Choi… Fedor will probably fight Recardo Arona…

Roy, actually my comment was something called a ‘joke’. It’s something that people with a sense of humor find funny.

I picture you as someone with a monotone voice and sporting an emotionless poker face during every waking moment of the day.

oh maybe if were a better joke i would have got it,but it does make sense now since most of your comments are a joke,i will know now that when i see your name your just bullsh—ing and aren’t serious.sorry for the mistake.

LOLOLOLOL. No problem. Every single time you post something, you WILL be proven wrong.

Any knowledgeable sports fan would have understood my comparison and found it funny. Fedor is fighting a guy that is 7’2" and has 1 MMA fight. I jokingly said that this is the equivalent to Randy fighting Manute Bol. I think your problem is that you don’t know who Mabute Bol is. He is a former pro athlete in a sport called basketball, and he is like 7’6". The funniest part about the comment was he competed in the stupid FOX Celebrity Boxing.

You are one of the prime examples of why all of the most knowledgable fans that USED to post on this site no longer do.

OR you are just upset that the only time anyone quotes your comments, they are telling you that you are wrong (and it isn’t just me). Otherwise, you never have ANYTHING the least bit intelligent to say, so that’s why people don’t respond to you or quote your comments.

Or better yet, ROY, maybe they can put up a poll and ask the readers whose comments they prefer to read and/or who writes better comments and uses facts, ViolentMike or Roy.

Unless you get your mom and dad to vote, you’d only get 1 vote, your own.

Mike, Fedor is not fighting Choi… taka a chill pill :)

Zheka, I am not upset with Fedor fighting Choi, I am upset with this kid Roy talking unnecessary smack.

Arona???? That’s even worse than Choi. Arona is a LHW, not a HW. Oh well. I don’t expect Fedor to fight anyone of signifigance unless he fights Barnett or the fight with Randy does actually go down. Any other fight is pointless, its just Fedor risking his perfect* record with nothing to gain.

Mike, disagree with you… Arona was toughest fight in Fedor’s career. They had to fight 4th round in order to determine a winner. Fedor won that fight via split decision. It was the only fight in Fedor’s career which end up in split decision victory…

You know Techno Goliath has gone over it in his head on more than one occasion, "should I remain with k-1 and accept a so-so pay, or, should I seriously consider my moms advise and call back the traveling circus to see if there is still a position opening for the giant scary freak of nature slot???

That is the gayest s*** i have ever seen in my whole life….

you have never proven me wrong you just talk smack and that dose not win the debate and yes i do know who bol is

I will be rooting for the ‘Techno Goliath’ to do the ‘Electric Boogaloo’ all over Fedor. I will not be buying this fight, if anyone does – you are either retarded or still have your mouth wrapped around Fedor’s nuts, BUT I will definitely be rooting for Fedor to lose. The odds of him losing are probably about 1,000,000,000,000 to 1, but hey, that’s still a puncher’s chance!

I agree with you I cant wait to see him lose.I believe this is kind of disrespecful for MMA fans to see the " best" on the planet fight someone who I dont even know who it is.That might be funny, but I think fighting guys like this one he will be 90 years old and will still be undefeated.It is a good way to make money out the people that love MMA and want to watch fight that might end in the first round.I have to laugh when I see this organization promoting these fights.To say that you are the best you have to fight the best and the best is Randy, but actually I dont want to talk about him now.

Fedor won that fight via split decision. It was the only fight in Fedor’s career which end up in split decision victory

didnt fedor go the distance like 4 times…

I have to say Roy Violent Mike knows what he is talking about 99% of the time. He has great analogies and uses sarcasm rather well. I understood the joke and actually got a good laugh out of it. I think most of the list would agree that mike is great at hypotheticals and keeping the threads interesting…But that is just my 2 cents…But I am sure it is the same 2 cents that most of us regular poster on mania will toss in…

I must say I really really really really really hope that Fedor loses. I really hope he loses in a bad way to like a super bad combo knockout, rather then a flash knockout.

oh maybe if were a better joke i would have got it,but it does make sense now since most of your comments are a joke,i will know now that when i see your name your just bullsh—ing and aren’t serious.sorry for the mistake.

I actually thought the Manute Bol joke was pretty funny. Also, ViolentMike is the number one commentator on this site and gives great insight to what he feels about MMA and I think he does an awesome job of it. I think most people skip past Roy comments and see what VM has to say, I know I do!

WHAT A JOKE! Hope Fedor gets his ass handed to him by this giant.

VM – you assume your right all the time! your not, you just type so much that nobody can be bothered to write back. You know your stuff, yeh, but that doesnt mean you should put others down just for giving an opinion. To be the number 1 commentator doesnt come easily of course, i have great respect for your keyboard warrior skills. you do not own this site, if someone says something that hurts you on here then your simply taking things far to personal. Chill

At first I really laughed at this fight.Then I watched Choi’s fight vs Bob Sapp,wow.That guy is a MONSTER.He dwarfs Bob Sapp.I would like to see this fight now.Choi may not be a top 10 fighter,but a win for Fedor would be really impressive based on physics alone.

I thought Randy had his chance.

Fedor offered 3 mil, more than Randy ever conceived of getting, but was turned down. What’s so bad about Fedor not getting into UFC? Even your BEST boy Randy quit.

As for complaining for Pfp status, Fedor is not number 1 currently, he’s number 3. Anderson Silva has #1(righfully so) and Quinon has #2.

pretty weak v.m. don’t get so mad
