The only time I can think of Fedor looking vulnerable was his match against Fujita where Fujita landed a solid punch and left Fedor with wobbly legs. Of course he recovered in 5 seconds and knocked Fujita out.

The Fedor/Fujita match was the closet ANYONE has ever come to beating Fedor. Let me tell you, Fujita rocked the sh!t out of Fedor, but instead of keeping it standing Fujita, out of reflex, just took him down. If he would have kept it standing Fujita may have knocked Fedor out.

And a little correction...Fedor didn't knock Fujita out (no one has). He just dropped him with a left hook and Fedor jumped on him and choked him out. There was no doubt Fujita was going to get back up and come right back at Fedor. Fujita is a freakin' MONSTER. He's like a nightmare. You keep punching him, and he keeps coming at you...HARD!

In the Cro-Cop/Fedor fight, it was all Fedor. Fedor had Cro-Cop on defense most of the time. And let me tell you, Cro-Cop never really landed a solid shot to the head. If you want to see a SOLID shot, check out Cro-Cop vs Mark Hunt. Cro-Cop lands a MONSTEROUS round house to Mark Hunt's head, SOLID! And Mark just looks like he said to himself, "motherfvcker!" And then answers back with HARD punches. Cro-Cop was like, "WTF? Why is this guy standing? And why the hell is he punching me in the face after that kick?!"

Mark Hunt stalks Cro-Cop
Watch after the round ends. It shows Cro-Cop land the MOSTER kick to Hunt's head and he just comes right back at Cro-Cop. Cro-Cop spends most of the time running away from Hunt.

Oops, forgot about the Fedor-Fujita ending, he did do a rear-naked choke. If Fujita would have been a little more composed after that one solid hit, his other punches would have made Fedor hit the mat.

I remember the Mark Hunt fight. Mark Hunt vs Cro Cop has to be one of the most exciting match-ups you can ask for. Both outstanding stand-up fighters! And your dialog is perfect for the 4th round :laugh:

Yeah, Shogun fights at 205. He's good, but Fedor's totally in another class. Anyway, Shogun's got two UFC fights on his new contract, so hopefully we'll get to see him against Liddel (assuming Rampage doesn't beat him, which I don't think he will).

Edit: If UFC picks up Hunt, I think Cro Cop may never get his title that's he's always been after.

It's just too bad Shogun won't be able to stomp the hell out of people, which is Chute Boxe's style.

Yea, if UFC vs Pride would be amazing with Fedor, Shogun, Wanderlei, Hunt

Royce Gracie in his prime could beat him.

Royce was old school and great for his time but really I think the sport has come a long way since Royce. I am not saying he wouldnt be competative but I am saying he would not be as dominant as he was and would have gotten beaten. The rules have also change so that he would not be able to use a gee however you speel that in the ring which he used several times to choke out opponents.
