Randy Coture dodged Antonio Nogueira (Big Nog)!
But nobody seems to want to fess up to that. All they try to do is shift the focus away from that fact, and instead say Fedor dodged the UFC.
GFR....

He he was to fight Rothwell you might as well put him in the ring and fight my Grandma, she's got a black belt in Depends combat, and cain self defense, my Grandma just whooped Rothwells ass. That would be a more interesting fight.

Fedors going to become a wasted talent in that orginazation, I mean i agree where are they going to find a good heavyweight outside of Barnette or the UFC, I dont even think Munson would honestly hold a candle to one of Fedor's farts but he is a strong little bastard. If the UFC has Brock maybe M-1 should get Kurt Angle or the Big Show then we can bring in Vince to promote it.

I wouldn't say Randy dodged Big Nog, I think Dana is to blame, he wasted Randy while he still had Randy, the Gonzaga fight was a joke, we all know it should of been Mirko, and I think when Mirko flopped they should of just instantly put Big Nog in the picture, come on why should someone like Nog or Mirko have to prove themselves, they are 2 of the best in the world, then if they wanted tune up matches thats there own fault for not fighting Randy when given the chance. So I think all in all its just a group effort. Then Fedor wasn't going to be able to compete in Sambo, or bring any of the Red Devils over, I dont think that would of been a bad thing, just Dana had his head up his own ass, and has to feel like he has the upper hand its Dana's fault we do not have Fedor.

Damn dude, learn how to use the edit button and quit triple posting, it's not that hard.

If Fedor fights Ben Rothwell he could get prosecuted.

I'm a huge Fedor fan but this is starting to get to be too much, if he fights anyone other than Barnett first, or at least someone who's game like Soko (who is young and can probably walk in the same weight as Fedor) I'm going to start losing respect for him.

I'm willing to give these guys the benefit of the doubt and see who they can offer to match up against him but it's not looking good.

I can see dana going out and offering Barnett a shit load of money just to screw over M1. Honestly would be a great buisness move for the UFC , fedor vs rothwell is no threat to them.

Yah, I totally agree with you on this one, Fedor has been the best in my eyes for some time now, but unless he still has challenges then how can he possibly be considered # 1 if he's fighting no name fighters. The funny thing with Rothwell is he would get decapitated cause all he can do is stand in one spto and punch, LOOK MOM I DID IT IN ONE POST, I'M A BIG KID NOW

You know I dont know if that would happen they have trashed talk eachother so much I dont know if they could work together, he called out Randy right before Randy left and they ducked Barnette, Dana bashed him pretty bad.

I think everyone is missing the bigger picture...you can't start a MMA org with one big name guy, even if it is fedor.

At best their first PPV/house show will look like this:

Fedor v Barnett -title fight
Rothwell v Monson - to determine who Fedor will kill in 3-4 months
tba v red devil fighter #1
tba v red devil fighter #2
tba v tba

Sure, lots of people will tune in just to see Fedor fight. But what do they do for the next 2-4 months before Fedor fights again. What do they do after Fedor fights Barnett and Monson? I would love to see the company's Business Plan.

I honestly think there best bet would be to show it for free, or close to nothing, I am one of Fedor's big fans(for the time being) and I'm not going to pay for that crap payperview, I'll just get on Youtube and watch it an hr after its over. I think there going to go bankrupt just trying to pay Fedor and the rest of the fighters
