That's how just about everyone of Fedor's fights go.

Rogers was mediocre and an overated 10-0 based on the fighters he fought. He messed up Fedor with a jab and went on to win the first round. I knew in the second round the fight was going to end. Rogers came out way overconfident, had his hands at his side and paid for it.

Fedor #1 - not in the cage. He looks lost inside the cage and does not know how to maneuver around it. He will lose to a good figther, one who will stick to a gameplan. Impressed with the punch, not impressed with the fighter!

Rogers has never been in a fight past the 2nd round. Pretty impressive to me.

I think he would give Brock all he could handle.

Rogers hasn't fought a fighter that should have made the opening bell.....

Andrei Arlovski?

Since 2006, Arlovski's only win of note - Roy Nelson.....

Arlovski had already went Hollywood when he fought Fedor and then Rogers

Fact is Fedor should be in the UFC. Thats where the best fighters are going. We ahve talked about this on here before. His insane manager is the reason he is not in the UFC.
He maybe the world's best fighter but there will always be that question for me because he doesn't fight the best.

His manager is an idiot. After watching Fedor tonight in the interview, he certainly does appear to rely completely on those around him for everything. What a shame, this guys doesn't even see that he is being directed terribly. This will be a guy in 10 years who will be flat out broke with nothing to his name, fighting prelims in HS gyms somewhere because he was screwed over by those arond him.

Fedor is the man and that shows why

Not impressed with the fighter? He's not 31-1 for nothing. Brett Rogers was a lot bigger than him and was a lot stronger. So he couldn't overpower him.

And Rogers was beating him and got stupid. Dropped his hands and let a heavyweight connect with a punch.

Is that not how everyone of his fights go? He lets them waste their energy in the first round with the aggressiveness and he saves all his energy and unloads on them in the 2nd round. That's what Fedor does and that's why he's the best MMA fighter out there. It's called strategy.

If he makes it to the UFC, he won't be letting Lesnar beat on him for a round, he'll need another strategy.

Hmm, so the strategy is let them break my nose, let them get confident and then I hope they drop their hands....... Good luck with a fighter who won't be as unprepared to follow a fight plan like Rogers.

Some of you guys don't understand, this guy (Fedor) trains constantly and has been doing it for nearly 20 years. He hasn't let up any since then either, if anything he's gotten better. Sure there are a ton of fighters out there that are 10x more athletic than Fedor, but they don't put forth the effort that he has and nor do they have an entire country on their back. Fedor is the most popular person in Russia these days and the entire country loves him for what he has accomplished. This doesn't make him better than anyone else out there, but he is a skilled fighter that I think at this point can take down any heavyweight in the world.

I question your knowledge of the sport. Do you not even watch anything more than highlights? Not one person can dodge every punch thrown, Rogers has enough power to break anyone's nose with one punch. Fedor waits for his opponent to show fatigue and then he attacks. Of course he's going to take his share of punches and spill some blood, but he obviously doesn't feel any pain when he's in that ring as he always lands a knockout punch or submission when he see's a weakness in his opponent. Brett Rogers just happens to be another one of his victims.

Unfortunately we won't see it, but Brock will pummel him. If he would have allowed Brock to get him on the ground like Rogers did, it would have finished in the first round. And I'm not saying that as a Brock fan, just an opinion that Ferdor's days may be behind him. Everyone get's off on his punching power as skill. If that's the case, George Foreman was the most skilled fighter in boxing history.......

Fedor's is a submission specialist and an excellent boxer. In his career he has 6 TKO's and 16 submissions. But I'm not getting into hypothetical discussion here about Fedor & Brock.

I dont think he waits for them to fatigue as much as hes waiting on a mistake. Getting there timing and patterns down. Ive watched literally every single Fedor fight there is, and I think hes the real deal. His best asset is his calmness in the ring/cage, he seems to always be in control of all situations and never gets upset. He does what it takes to get the job done every time.
BTW if anyones interested in watching all of Fedors fights from his start in Russia through Pride, I can set you up with the torrent site to get it from.
#24
On a side note, especially with UFC events can we keep spoilers out of the title? Most times I wait for the fights to be over then download them, or record if im out doing something.
