Fedor vs. Hendo, loser may leave Strikeforce

i wont be surprised if fedor wins this upcoming bout. fedor will win , sign with dream and a year from now will be headlining japan cards against guys like barnett,wagner, batista and others.

The only people who see Fedor fighting in Japan are oblivious to the MMA landscape. Japan can't pay 10,000 purses on time, but the 3 million dollar man fights there? Ok.

Only the UFC has this doe. Fedor will fight in the UFC. There is no where left in the game unless a new player wants to throw money away enters the game. UFC or retirement.

M-1 on SF. Or whomever Spike picks up.

I think there are orgs out there that could throw $$$ fedor's way, but would they do it for a Fedor on a 3 fight losing streak? I think the 3 losses will hurt his next payday more then a lack of org's with cash.

Machida should've asked for Henderson pay.

He would have got the same speech. Even though Dana and Hendo back room beefed, even when Hendo was outside the UFC and SF wasn't yet part of Zuffa, Dana had nothing but gold things to say about Hendo as a fighter.

If Fedor loses I hope he retires or if he loses a close fight maybe take a pay cut to fight for the ufc but it seems real unlikely to me that Fedors people will come to an agreement with Dana as they will probably ask for to much even without any barganing advantage.

Win or lose Hendo is coming back to the ufc. His pay and level of first fight back will depend on the result of this fight with Fedor.

Well there isn't any way possible for Hendo to repeat Fedor's last two losses. He isn't big or strong enough to hold him down and if Hendo pulls off a triangle I'll buy a Texas Longhorns jersey. It's not like Fedor is taking naps on the canvas lately.

Fedor blocks punches with his face. I like the fresher fighter, Henderson

When was the last time Fedor looked good again? 2008?

Fedor still rarely gets hit standing while Hendo lost to a WW in Jake and also was nearly finished in the first round of the Feijao fight. Slow your roll. Or keep it at the current speed with an opinion close to worth having or speaking on anyway...

"Fedor still rarely gets hit standing"? When was it rarely ever? There's a reason his chin was regarded as one of the best ever....

Turns out you have to come up from behind him perfectly underneath his chin.

LOL Wolf is on suicide watch somebody email him or something.

"As far as fighting in Strikeforce, I hope we have them both (Fedor and Henderson) back.

"If you look at that fight, I think it stands right up there. If you
look back at the history of Strikeforce, which is relatively a newer
company, I think the ones that stand out in my mind are, in our early
days, Frank Shamrock fighting Cung Le - that was an unbelievable matchup. And Nick Diaz fighting Paul Daley this year - unbelievable fight.

"And [on Saturday], I think this one probably tops those two. So arguably one of the best fights in the history of our company."

Fedor sounds done.

I think it's about time to hand Fedor his walking papers.............

Your asking the ultimate Fedor hater to explain why? Might as well ask Freak to explain zone blocking in the NFL. The answers will make just as much sense.

Nice.

i must say im no and never have been a fedor hater. i have always enjoyed his fights and to date still believe he is a dangerous high calibur hw. i would so favor him over guys like barnett,werdum,nelson,nog,kongo,sergei,cormier,overeem and others.the one thing that did turn me off about him were some of his fans who believed he was gods gift to mma and invincible even a few years after pride. those were the ones who had me at times cheering for the other guy.then came along m-1s mismanagement towards the sport. that too was something i looked down on. in the end i hope fedor continues to fight, i hope m-1 plays the game and represents him properly in future fights especially now that they dont have the leverage they once did. and i hope fedor fights in the ufc if anything against guys like mir/schaub/page(at catchweight) and others and finishes his career in the biggest stage of them all.heck a rematch with werdum would be nice.

A Werdum rematch makes sense, if he is able to stay with Zuffa. But if not I think a Reem vs Fedor fight in some other organization would be great.

Could we see ProElite snatch up any of these guys? Hendo, Reem or Fedor?
