For those that have been living under a rock and are not aware of the ANIMAL that is Fedor Emeileinenko! Here is the best FEDOR highlight ever made….Enjoy (take notice the agility that he shows in this highlight, its truley amazing especially when u take into consideration that he is a heavyweight….Few of the top heavyweights in the world can do some of the things that he shows in this highlight! Enjoy its one of my favorites:

Sanchez, I said that along time ago.

Its sill a crappy effort of a trailor, why not show some Fedor highlights.

Great card + crap marketing = low PPV & high losses.

I like how they quote Joe Rogan, that must make dana a bit mad lol.

by BNF's B_tch aka LINX on Jul 10, 2008 10:01 AM EDT reply actions

Yeah, I agree. But then again that quote was probably from two years ago… You gotta love Rogan though, he tells it like it is.

If Donald Trump thinks its a good card then I guess I’ll have to watch it. LOL

I am really getting hyped up awaiting this event. This will be on of the most important match ups in the short history of modern day mma!

I cant wait to see the Fury that Fedor will unleash on Big Tim and I cant wait to win back the money I lost on UFC 86. I will probably be betting on:
Fedor
Barnett
Nogeira (BIG)
Babalu (BIG)
Negao (very small amount)
a small amount on Rothwell if he is a heaVY UNDERDOG, if he isnt, I will just leave it alone.
UNDERS in the Aleks/Buentello fight (if they offer odds on the unders)

AS for tyhe UFC, I will probably bet on:
Irvin (very small) not that I think he will beat Silva, but at those odds, u have to take a chance on the dog with the KO ability)
Vera
Rumble
CB Dollaway

I havent really begun to think about exactl;y what I will be betting on yet, so these bets are subject to change. I will post my bets when I make up my mind!

by john on Jul 10, 2008 10:42 AM EDT up reply actions

I forgot, I will also be betting on Hermes Franca for sure!

so if you want to make money bet against john… it made me a ton last UFC event

by kory on Jul 10, 2008 11:21 AM EDT up reply actions

Yup, bet against Me…I dare u! Sucker!

Even after I got crushed last event, I am now picking 87% percent correct on the year! Not bad, I only lost money that I won at UFC 85 and half of my earnings from UFC 84….I still cleaned up on UFC 80, 81 (where I picked everysingle fight on the card right except for 1), 82 and 83 not to mention all the UFN’s and TUF Finale!

Bet against me hater, see how well u do! Hi Hater! LOL

nOT TO MENTION LAST YEAR, WHEN i WENT COMPLETELY UNDEFEATED, winning money on every single UFC event of 2007..

by john on Jul 10, 2008 11:55 AM EDT up reply actions

Hi HATER!

by john on Jul 10, 2008 11:55 AM EDT up reply actions

If u have been betting against me, then you must be bankrupt by now. I bad event doesnt erase the 90% correct picks that I have been picking for the year…so I had a bad event, I am only down to 87% percent effective rate…Not to shabby if u ask me.

If it makes u feel better hate all u want, I know what I have accomplished betting on mma.

I dare u to keep betting against me. Thats it! Too much hate, NO MORE Predictions for anyone! U want my picks, E-mail me from now on and I will consider giving them to you, I am done offering my 87% correct rate to u ingrates for free! lol I wish u haters the best! lol

by john on Jul 10, 2008 12:30 PM EDT up reply actions

no one hits 90%!!!! NO ONE!!! if you are hitting 90% you need to be a handicapper for MMA!

by GameFace on Jul 10, 2008 12:54 PM EDT up reply actions

lol hater? What’s wrong little boy did I hurt your feelings? Please please keep your pics up because I like watching you lose money you donkey.. What did you go last event 5% right? hahah

by kory on Jul 10, 2008 12:59 PM EDT up reply actions

90% on the fights that I bet money on! Not all the fights that were booked…there is a very big difference and yes, 90%, well now 87% of my bets this year have won!

Kory: u got me! If u think I give 2 F88ks about what u say, u are sadly mistaken….lets leave it at that, I really dont want to be responding to your confrontational posts all day!

by john on Jul 10, 2008 1:06 PM EDT up reply actions

God damnit john….nobody cares how much you’re winning or who you’re betting on. and thats clearly a lie anyway so just go away

by Phil on Jul 10, 2008 1:08 PM EDT up reply actions

In my experience, most people that publicly brag about their gambling winnings tend to grossly over exaggerate or just be straight up degenerates.

by the_mexicutioner on Jul 10, 2008 1:10 PM EDT up reply actions

I dont bet on anything other than mma. Check the Archives, I always post my bets

by john on Jul 10, 2008 1:26 PM EDT up reply actions

john, in keeping with the spirit of MMA why don’t we just step into a cage and settle this. I’d love to beat a little Bi**h like you for a couple rounds

by kory on Jul 10, 2008 1:47 PM EDT up reply actions

John, I have officially been gambling on MMA since January. We usually have very similar picks for all the fights, and I’ll fess up and admit that I’m not winning anywhere close to 85% of the time (winning 7 out of 8 of my bets). With a win rate that high, you can SERIOUSLY get a job in Vegas. The UFC has been very unpredictable as of late. Actually, I have been more successful as of late betting on other orgs

The three fights that I lost the most money on:

Frankie Edgar/Gray Maynard
Marcus Davis/Mike Swick
Rampage/Forrest

I always post who I am betting on for events.

by ViolentMike on Jul 10, 2008 2:26 PM EDT up reply actions

Besides the UFC 86 debacle (wich destroyed me)

I lost on Davis at UFC 85 (I lost Big, but I won 4 other bets that night so it canceled out)..Yes I had Alves as a Dog

I Only lost on Gouveai at UFC 84, but I had big money on BJ, Machida, and Wanderlei…I also won on Soko…I cant remember what other fights were on that card

UFN’s to me have been trickier than pay per views. I had Alves over Karo, but lost on Lauzon and a parlay involving Maynard

UFC 82: Only fight I had that I bet wrong that night was Kongo/hearing (which I still think Kongo should have won)

UFC 81: I bet everysingle fight and won them all, I even had Boetsh that night.

UFC 80: I lost on Grove

I bet many more fights I just cant remember them. I have a book at home that I write down all my bets on, I will bring it with me to school tomorrow and I can name everysingle fight I wagerd on this year and how much I bet/won/or lost….If it will make u guys feel better I will be happy to post it tomorrow!

I cant sit here and pick 87% of all the fights that are booked, but out of the ones I have bet on, I am usually right, and when I am wrong its because I took chances on great odds on underdogs, that I didnt think would win anyway…just like I will bet on Irvin, but I dont expect him to bet silva.

All the fights I bet Big on, WIN. The only fights that I bet really big on (big according to my standards, which isn’ Sh*t compared to how much others bet) and lost on this year have been Rampage and I had Marcus Davis over Swick for a lot of money!

Ahhhh Kory, reveling in the power of anonymity on the internet.

by chefdaddy on Jul 11, 2008 8:46 AM EDT up reply actions

WTF is that d*ck Atencio talking about. Every one of the fights could be a main event. What? A main event where?
I’m glad Sylvia is gone from the UFC and Arlovski hasn’t put on a good show in a long time. Who in the f*ck cares about Babalu and Mike Whitehead, amongst others?

by Adam on Jul 10, 2008 10:55 AM EDT up reply actions

Well I like Tim and Arlovski but yea, screw Babalu, I lost all respect for him when he got knocked out by Lambert.

by O damn he got caught on Jul 10, 2008 11:07 AM EDT up reply actions

Babalu is an amazing fighter, dont know what the hell u guys are talking about….The only people he has lost to in years are Chuck (twice) and lambert……doesnt seem like a bad resume to me at all!

by john on Jul 10, 2008 11:16 AM EDT up reply actions

have you lost respect for every fighter that has gotten knocked out

by roy on Jul 10, 2008 11:43 AM EDT up reply actions

Babalu is the man and a veteran of the sport.

by Haze on Jul 10, 2008 11:50 AM EDT up reply actions

I have lost respect for any fighter that has been knocked out, submitted or has a loss and doesn’t have a title! So There!

by the_mexicutioner on Jul 10, 2008 11:57 AM EDT up reply actions

well, pretty much every person on this site lost respect for you a long time ago….I guess its EVEN!

what a D*ck, the guy only managed to put out the best event of the summer with his 1st show ever managing to land Fedor vs. a former UFC champion in America, something even the great Dana White could not do….Can u believe that A**whole? Show the man some Love…damn!

by john on Jul 10, 2008 12:51 PM EDT up reply actions

rizzo vs. barnett was a main event in the UFC. arlovski vs. buentello was a main event in UFC. arlovski vs. sylvia was a main event in UFC (3 times). babalu was in a main event vs. chuck in UFC. vitor belfort was a headliner in UFC. rizzo was a main event vs. couture in UFC. barnett was a main event against couture in UFC. there’s more main event worthy fighters and fights on this card than any card the UFC has EVER put together!!!

who doesnt upset that fing bald headed man. whats the list at now, like 100??? he now hates the best ref he ever had in BIG john, he hates the affliction promoter because he happened to b selling tshirts and now hes promoting the best heavyweight card ever. He hates mark cuban becuase hes trying to compete…and not to mention all the fighters this side of the mississippi.

by blah on Jul 10, 2008 12:33 PM EDT up reply actions

is joe rogan dana’s slave or something? can joe only say what dana wants him to say? i think Abe Lincoln abolished slavery a long time ago, dana needs to realize that. he’s trying to treat randy couture like his slave,(u can’t do this, u can do that, don’t say this, don’t fight there, u gotta fight here.)!!! what’s up with that?

by deuce 4 on Jul 10, 2008 12:37 PM EDT up reply actions

Was that Michael Buffer’s voice at the end? That’s interesting, two brothers announcing for competing organizations. Who cares about the Shamrock’s fighting each other. Let’s see the Buffers beat the crap out of each other! Let’s get ready to rumble!

by JRK on Jul 10, 2008 10:03 AM EDT reply actions

Yes. He’s the ring announcer for Affliction.

I just went over to affliction earlier and though it was a shorter trailer! so thats why its trailer 2. also i laughed as all them quotes are there to piss dana white off its so obvious. randy , big john and rogans quotes lmao!!!!

by Tony on Jul 10, 2008 10:11 AM EDT reply actions

That commercial sucks. Lucky the card is so good as that wouldn’t get me to watch.

by Mark on Jul 10, 2008 10:22 AM EDT reply actions

I agree. I hope the card lives up to the hype though. Hopefully they wont get too far in the hole either and be able to have more events with quality fighters and matches.

by the_mexicutioner on Jul 10, 2008 10:28 AM EDT up reply actions

I wonder who’s getting paid more, Megadeath or Fedor?

by the_mexicutioner on Jul 10, 2008 10:31 AM EDT reply actions

Probably Fedor’s manager

by O damn he got caught on Jul 10, 2008 10:39 AM EDT up reply actions

Man, these people need to get a good director goin, and also grab a guy with a fuckin normal voice to do the voice over, i’m kind of dissapointed by their marketing but the fights are gonna be incredible, this will be card of the year for sure

by Boris on Jul 10, 2008 10:40 AM EDT reply actions

Yeah, looks like some film student at Long Beach City College did the trailer.

by the_mexicutioner on Jul 10, 2008 10:54 AM EDT up reply actions

my thoughts exactly. Maybe they figure they are in over their heads and decided not to spend any more money on advertising.

by Djs3467 on Jul 10, 2008 1:06 PM EDT up reply actions

Im still debating on this card on whether or not its worth $40 or should I just hope the fights are online later and watch the free fights on Spike… well I guess in the end it will all come down to one thing… cash flow! lol

by Bright Eyes on Jul 10, 2008 10:48 AM EDT reply actions

I got a feeling that there gonna show them on HD NET or Fight Network shortly after, they need media attention bad if they want to do better on a second event.

by Ro-J on Jul 10, 2008 12:16 PM EDT up reply actions

if ur willing to pay $45 for a ufc ppv, my friend this will well be worth $40

by deuce 4 on Jul 10, 2008 1:25 PM EDT up reply actions

I don’t think so, not if I can just wait and watch it on tv. Wich i am pretty sure will happen.

by Ro-J on Jul 10, 2008 1:48 PM EDT up reply actions

those guys will all gas past the 2nd round, thts what that card tell me. Gas out by the end of the 2nd and turn in to a snooze fest of gassed out legends of the sport.

I’m still gonna watch it when fight network airs it for free 3 weeks later.
