If both dudes keep winning until there's no one left but them, Fedor certainly wouldn't mind another Nog fight. Until then, there's still a lot of other heavyweights out there that he hasn't gotten the chance to fight yet.

If you lose to a fighter twice, there's no reason for any more rematches. No Silva-Franklin III, Hughes-GSP IV, Tito-Liddell III, Rampage-Liddell III, etc. What's the point? 2 victories = owned. Move on.

Just what we need, Fedor fighting another fighter that's past his prime and using it to claim he is the #1 fighter. Wether it's Randy at age 50, or Nog, or whomever, by fighting outside the UFC Fedor can continue to fight "has-beens" to pad his overrated record and remain the most overrated fighter in the world.

That's just crazy talk.

Who has he beaten? Nog? Both by decisions...Tim Silva is by no means greatness but he was destroying Nog until he got caught by a rear naked. Heck, Heath Herring all but knocked out Nog but was too scared to finish him off. Fedor had to beat Cro Cop by a decision....Cro cop got destroyed in the UFC. He beats a 42 year old mark coleman, WOW! Here is Fedor the Fake's last 5 fights:
Choi (1-1 record)
Lindland (normal fighting weight differenct of 50lbs)
Mark Hunt (5-3 record)
Mark Coleman (like 70 years old)
Wagner FREAKING Martins (4-4 & 400 lbs)
I got to say that's pretty impressive!

He is going to have to earn the title of best HW fighter in the world once again. | Has anyone displaced him as the best HW fighter in the world? Quote:

coleman and randleman are probably the two weakest UFC champs he could have fought, to be honest. he'll most likely beat sylvia, making it three, but at least the sylvia fight would hold merit.

rh | He could of signed with the UFC and fought Randy but I think Fedor saw that as a probable loss, thus he ducked the UFC. Dana White said he wanted to sign Fedor but Fedor's "people" were impossible. Fedor just wanted to wait until Randy is farther past his prime before he fights him. The heavyweight division is probably the weakest division in the UFC but if he signed in the UFC and dominated that weight class it would give him alot more credibility. Instead he cherry picks the fights he knows he can win. The Silva fight will be atleast a challenge.
