Seriously, what in the absolute f*ck is this! Is this how Fedor prepares for a fight!? I’m a huge Fedor fan but come on… What the f*ck is the guy in the green about. Is this how he prepared when he beat big nog and Cro Cop? Maybe all of these Gremlins and elves that he goes jogging with grant him special powers.

Looks like a Bill Murray comedy, where a gang of bumbling misfits somehow graduate from basic training, then are sent on a secret mission to spy on the USSR’s greatest human weapon while posing as mma fighters….

LMAO!! One of my all time fav movies!

Psycho: The name’s Francis Soyer, but everybody calls me Psycho. Any of you guys call me Francis, and I’ll kill you.

Leon: Ooooooh.

Psycho: You just made the list, buddy. And I don’t like nobody touching my stuff. So just keep your meat-hooks off. If I catch any of you guys in my stuff, I’ll kill you. Also, I don’t like nobody touching me. Now, any of you homos touch me, and I’ll kill you.

Sergeant Hulka: Lighten up, Francis.

Those guys with him are Russian Mob enforcers sent to make sure he doesn’t try to defect to America.

You got it all wrong. This was taken from that scene in Forrest Gump where everybodies running. The guy with the beard is Forrest after he let his facial hair grow out…

by Dan on Oct 28, 2009 12:50 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

That is one impressive beard. McArthur, there is a short bus parked right behind them, so you’re probably spot on.

by Freddy on Oct 28, 2009 12:52 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Actually the guy with the beard is his pastor from the local church in Oskolo. He was in the “Baddest Man on the planet” movie and also in recent pictures of Fedor’s marriage.

Oh and its really bad for the joints to run on concrete, but Fedor is a terminator, so he doesn’t care.

The guy with the beard is his priest and one of his students.

by Mike831 on Oct 28, 2009 12:52 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I’m pretty sure the guy with the beard is the same guy in the picture where Fedor is getting remarried. He’s the priest.

by Collin on Oct 28, 2009 12:52 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Those aren’t his training partners, those are the homeless people that follow him when he jogs.

by Mr. Bones on Oct 28, 2009 1:00 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

He leads them down to the river where he tries out his new moves then finishes up with a round or two of Bum-Fights

nobodys going to say anything about Forrest Gump running next to him ?

by FatAttack513 on Oct 29, 2009 9:10 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

the guy with the black hood pulled over in back was freestyle alternate (2nd at russian nationals) at 2008 olympics. Seriously guys, they are jogging. for all we know the guy in green is a sick sambo player and others might be boxers, kickboxers. I think the wrestlers name is Tsargush. One of the better wrestlers out there in russia.

Training with a resurrected Rasputin hasn’t hurt Fedor in the past, so why should it now? Sure beats drinking your own piss like Machida.

by Belisarius on Oct 28, 2009 2:01 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

i would rather train with rasputin than drink piss.

by roy on Oct 28, 2009 2:05 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

The guy with the beard is Forest Gump. He actually beat Fedor in an exhibition match.

by Dana White on Oct 28, 2009 2:12 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

This fight is a joke!!!
Brock
Cain
Carwin
De Santos
Randy
Anderson
Anybody else disappointed in Fedor

by Robert(1) on Oct 28, 2009 2:30 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

no cain carwin dos santos are about the same level as rogers.

by roy on Oct 28, 2009 3:17 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

And Randy is far below that level at this point. Only decent fights for him are Brock and may be Anderson.

by Gleb on Oct 28, 2009 6:08 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

The guy with the beard is his Russian Orthodox Minister. Fedor is a very religious man. He brings him to fights also.

I think they all just stepped off of that short bus in the background.

Bret Rogers is still better than Carwin and Cain or atleast on their level. We know he has more power than Cain and actually has more KO than Carwin so u Fedor haters need to eat a D i c k

by J.R. Ewing on Oct 29, 2009 1:12 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I am amazed of how absurd and disrespectful some people can be…
what amount of ignorance my god…

If any of you who insult Fedor and those nice and honest people near him knew anything about Fedor you’d know that he is a guy who likes to HELP.
So from time to time he helps to the NORMAL NON-FIGHTERS people by training with them and helping them achieve better shape and physical health.

Those are all Fedors personal friends or people who asked him for condition/shape help.

Now go learn some respect and learn to behave from phenomenal, respectful, humble and super nice persons such as Fedor and not from corrupted, double faced, arrogant, disgusting, disrespectful, absurd, hypocritical liars like Dana White.
