He started training muay thai in Holland after the loss to Bigfoot, and he really put a kickboxing clinic on Jeff Monson and actually broke his leg with leg kicks. I'm honestly very impressed with how quickly Fedor picked up muay thai while only training it for what, like a year now? I'd love to see him in Bellator as well, imo he destroys Konrad.

Guy could have been a beast if brought up correct. Ishii has the worst managers in the sport.

Absolute shame that he got this severe an injury.

That said I dont think he was thrown to the wolves. I'm sure he looked at this as a huge opportunity to fight a legend. Not too many fighters would turn that down.

Ryo Chonan: Reports of Fedor Ending Ishii's Career are False

Quote:
Yesterday I posted an article about Satoshi Ishii suffering a possible career-ending head injury in his fight with Fedor Emelianenko. This story has been making the rounds on MMA sites, and its point of origin is the Japanese website Cyzo.com.

Now, however, there is a new twist on things, with Ryo Chonan claiming that the reports are false. Here is a translated version of what Chonan had to say on the matter, from the website searchina.ne.jp. The translation comes courtesy of nodogoshi of the Team Takeover Forums.
