As a Fedor nuthugger, I'll be the first to admit that I was wrong and all the doubters were right.

I think Fedor's age, combined with his senses being dulled from fighting too many chumps over the years have made him mortal.

I don't think there's any way he can reclaim his top spot again, especially with the clock ticking and him rotting away in Strikeforce.

Fedor just got used to powering through this type of submission attempt. Werdum was just too solid with technique.

But I would say with 100% confidence, Fedor would own him in a rematch.

Agreed. Just wasn't Fedor's night.
 
Am I the only person who clicked on this thread expecting to see this:

Along with some jpeyton trolling?
 
To the people shitting on Werdum because of his losses - Brock/Carwin/JDS/Cain haven't fought top competition yet - when you have lots of top comp fights you're bound to lose.

I think Werdum has more top 10 fights than all of those aforementioned combined. You are just buying into the Zuffa machine hype.

Werdum can now be called "The Emelianenko Hunter", a la "The Gracie Hunter" Sakuraba, since he previously beat Fedor's brother Aleksander.

Werdum is definitely not a nobody. He has a win over the current badass Strikeforce Champ Alistair Overeem.

Crazy upset though. I would have preferred to see Overeem fight Fedor instead of Werdum though (which is what's going to happen next).

Don't start that shit again, I already pointed out that the rankings of Fedor's opponents is misleading. The last 8 have had miserable careers since, except Rogers, and he is heading that direction.

BTW, JDS knocked Werdum the fuck out, that makes JDS > Werdum. But I agree that people need to STFU about disparaging him. Because as I also pointed out, Werdum would have been a damned good win.
 
Finally, Fedor has a true loss. He is human after all! 🙂

Too bad this loss came so late in his career. Every great athlete needs a defeat to become even greater. With 31 straight wins, it was just a matter of time/chance/mistake/etc.
 
I thought I was watching it live (like midnight EST) watching the first fight, since it was west coast time, so I go the Wiki page for the event and see all the results! Major spoiler! 🙁

Couldn't believe Fedor lost. Werdum has great BJJ for sure. Ridiculous how this makes Fedor suck, or Werdum king, or whatever. I think a record speaks the most. I would like to see Fedor face UFC guys but I still think he's the best.
 
Where my Fedor nuthuggers @? LOL

Kind of sad really, like when Darth Vader died in Return of the Jedi...the end of an era.

With a little patience Fedor woulda won...I still don't understand his haste to get in Werdum's guard.

Fedor goes for the kill, risks it all on the line. That's just the type of fighter Fedor is.

I don't understand your disdain for Zuffa. Did Dana White kick your dog or something?

Brock, Carwin, JDS, and Cain would destroy Werdum. JDS Already did. I think Fedor would too if next time he doesn't insert his head directly into a triangle choke. Twice. Really puzzling that.

Bruce would try one of his jump kicks and get KO'd like arlovski:

Try to high kick and get neutralized:

Actually, if you actually read his books, you would know that bruce lee regraded high kicks in fights as useless and dangerous since you leave yourself vulnerable.
