I think Zulu in a rematch would beat Fedor, Kimbo also has a very good chance.
Seriously I think the only 3 that really have a chance are Overeem, Lesnar and Barnetto.

Sorry but Kongo????
Kongo just maybe would give some troubles in the stand Up but Fedor would take him down and submit him in a couple of minutes.
Fedor have already faced better kickboxers than Kongo, and those kickboxers had better ground game than Cheick so I dont see how Kongo would last more than 3 minutes.

Oh, and I'll maintain that I don't think any one of the top 20 heavies can beat Fedor, though there are opponents I'd like to se him face.

| Who can beat Fedor?
Righ now I think Fedor is on top of his game. I really dont think Brook has a chance all he is is big and strong with no tech. Fedor beat this huge Japanese guy who made Brock look small by armbar. Someone who has a chance I think is not even in his weight class I think Wandalei Silva or Anderson Silva would give him the best fight at this time. Or maybe his fight coming up against Overeem . I've never thought to much of Overeem but he;s really steped his game up in his past few fights it should be a good fight I think n hope.

I forgot about Jeff Monson he might give him a fight I dont c him winning but it might be a good fight. In the rankings Diego Sanchez isnt on the top 10 is it just me or do other people think he should be and deserves to be on it?

Definately Brock or Arlovski. If Fedor got stuck under Brock which is entirely possible considering his wrestling credentials I think he would be a bit screwed. In the first or second round Brock by TKO. After that Fedor by TKO when Brock's tank gasses out. Supposedly Brock has heinous cardio but all the same.
Arlovski could win with technical strikes all he has to do is fight smart and not try any flying knees. Arlovski may not finish Fedor except in his dreams sadly but he could outpoint him to a unanimous decision. Cro Cop has the same jaw as Arlovski and he surived so you just have to fight smart.

Yell at me all you want, but I think Brock Lesnar can win IF he keeps Fedor from taking him down. We've all seen his fights with Couture and Mir, and its evident that his only weapon is his power, and I honestly think that, even though i can't stand Lesnar, I think that he can knock out Fedor. His game plan would have to be a very quick victory, because I honestly doubt he could win by anything but a knockout.

I don't know why Fedor chose not to sign with the UFC. Maybe it's all politics or whatever. You would think that top level fighter would want to fight other top level fighters regardless of the org. Affliction had no chance of competing with the UFC, no north american org. has a chance to compete with the UFC.
With all respect to Fedor, it was a stupid move to turn down a hell of an offer to fight for the UFC, even if it was just a one fight deal! I think Fedor has a choice: fight highly ranked guys and PROVE that you deserve to be ranked #1 in the world, or keep fighting guys that are past there prime, on a down swing in their careers, and nobody's. The latter would keep him ranked #1, but at what cost to his fan-rep. If he doesn't give a shit about what people think of him that's fine. It's the fans that make you famous, not you.
I heard Mir is calling him out. Fedor vs Mir in Japan maybe?
