Will Fedor fight in the UFC?

Will he ever fight in the UFC? Simple answer: No. UFC management may be able to get more viewers for the sport, but Dana White and company sometimes run the UFC the same way a high school drama queen would. 😱

Guys like Josh Barnett and Matt Lindland should be fighting in the octagon, but it's highly unlikely we'll see either one any time soon...

Most people agree a TKO via cut shouldn't be counted as a loss. It's not like he was taken down and submitted. 😉
 
oh yeah that fight, a dude clipped his eyebrow with a glove, and he started bleeding. like 17 seconds in or something, he was hardly even hit with a good punch, more like a scratch. but the ref stopped it.
 
It's a long standing joke that the best way to beat Fedor is to just find a way to cut him open, since he seems to have such thin skin.

You definitely don't want to have him on top of you, because his GnP is by far the scariest IMO in MMA.

ref stopped it cause he got cut. he didn't lose.

and no, fedor isn't going to the ufc. that russian group is paying him way too much. he'll probably fight randy in russia once randy's no compete clause expires.
 
Are we even sure Couture can wait out his contract? 😕 He says he can, UFC says he can't, and the fans are left confused as hell.

Fedor vs. Couture is probably the most intriguing matchup that could be made right now, and it's a shame we can't see it in the UFC.

While talking MMA, does anyone remember Evan Tanner?

only reason Coulture came back to UFC was to fight fedor. now that is not going to happen he has n o reason to stay.

yeah Tanner was good. he kinda disapared though.
 
I figured Couture wanted to come back and earn himself a few extra bucks before truly calling it a career.

Tanner's making a comeback to the UFC! 😀 He should be fighting at UFC 82, with rumors pointing to Yushin Okami as his opponent. He's had an interesting past couple of years, but he's a warrior, so I am sure a lot of people want him to fight again.
 
Its not that russian group is paying him too much, from what I understand it's because Fedor will basically have to be slave to ufc, won't be able to compete in other countries/organizations and sambo. Since Randy Couture is out of UFC maybe fedor will be able to arrange a fight now 😛

but Randy is not out of the UFC wich is the debate. White says he signed a contract and has to fulfill it. Randy says he and white knew it was just to set up a fight with Fedor.

Well, I think it's both sides which are at fault in this whole thing...

The UFC obviously doesn't want to let Fedor compete in sambo tournaments! Even though he's a beast and people sometimes quit to avoid facing him, why take a chance and let him get hurt in a sport that most Americans don't care or know about? Furthermore, why would the UFC, the king organization of MMA, cross promote with other organizations? From a pure business stand point, it doesn't make any sense. Besides that, Fedor wanted shows in Russia, and he wanted a few Red Devil fighters under contract in the UFC also.

Then again, I think Fedor is getting played pretty hard by his management. 🙁

Then again... again, I don't blame him for not wanting to sell his soul to the UFC.

The whole issue is bad for MMA fans. 🙁

You speak the truth I guess 😛
 
As a fan of both, I don't want Randy and Fedor to fight. I don't want to see Randy utterly destroyed by Fedor as his last fight.
