| Since it looks like Fedor's last contracted fight with SF will more than likely be against Reem, what's your opinion on this fight? Back to back guys off losses getting Title shots, and most of all the chance Fedor could potentially lose 2 fights in a row, then you'd def never see him in the UFC. | |

| Well, this isnt even close to official. M-1 says they want Werdum. Coker is the one who brought up Overeem-Fedor as a possibility and i'm sure that might be pending another re-negotiation unless SF wants to back themselves in another corner with another title, considering Fedor's contract. Which i don't think they will...
but the matchup...i favor Overeem. I think he's in his prime now. I like him in the standup and i think the cage would work to his benefit with his size and strength advantage. Rogers had Fedor in plenty of positions against the cage where somebody like Overeem would be dropping some sharp knees and clean shots while Rogers was too tired to do anything except stall. I think Fedor has the chin and grappling advantage. I think Fedor landing a few clean ones would put Overeem on skates and while Overeem is actually pretty good on the ground, i would favor Fedor if the fight goes there. I'm about 51-49 for Reem...and i was prepared to pick Overeem had Fedor defeated Werdum so this is not because Fedor took a loss. | |

| best chance at getting Fedor to resign is by making him the StrikeForce Champ
still I am a big StrikeForce fan and supporter
but they need to get their fucking shit in order, in the real world you need to FUCKING WIN to get a title shot | |

| I've stated on here before I was taking Ubereem if Fedor had gotten past Werdum. Now I'm curious to see Fedor since he's finally tasted defeat. This could stir up some kind of terminator, who knows. | |

| Yeah. Werdum is having surgery to his arm. I don't know how long it's supposed to keep him out though. | |
