The athletic commissions are strict he'd be suspended and hated more than he is for his antics. So I doubt he's juice'n as well. I don't like him and would love to see Lesnar lose but he'd would end Fedors reign for sure.

While you cannot question Lesnar's speed and size he has HUGE holes in his game. Hell Randy Couture was getting the better end of the exchange when it came to standup against him for a little bit. If Randy could penetrate his standup game, Fedor would absolute tear him apart. Size and speed yeah, he's an animal. Against the Last Emperor...he'd get ZULU'd ![]() |

As far as better end of exchanges Rodgers was doing well and lost. You really think he'd stand with Fedor. |

I think my overall point is that while Lesnar is good and has earned my respect, he's not on the same level. ![]() |

I would have to disagree with you here. I've watched this fight about a dozen times and Fedor gave him rubber legs several times and of course, the big KO. Rodgers never phased Fedor and only landed about 7 clean shots and half of those were on the ground. That first jab Rogers landed looked more than it was because it opened a previous cut Fedor sustained while sparring with his brother during training a month ago.
I think Lesnar would try to take him to the ground. That is where he feels most comfortable being a wresting champion. Every fighter that Lesnar has fought has had a superior ground game and he took them down and smothered them. Granted, I think Fedor would be just fine if that happened but I don't see Lesnar trying to stand with him. I do agree with Dustin, Fedor is just on a different level.....than everyone. ![]()

Thought the fights were pretty good. Some how 2 seconds can mean everything and it was the difference in Miller getting a W or L. Shields had a dominate ground control but Miller was never in danger. | Rogers gained some respect from during the fight and lost 10 fold after. I was surprised to see him active on the ground and able to stand up and I was disgusted at his post fight arrogance & stupidity.

Don't forget your talking about a gut with virtually no experience doing "well" against the "Last Emperor".
All I'm saying is put him in there against a top 5 HW that's all. |

Fedor dominated him and has nothing to prove to anyone. At the time they fought both Arlovski and Big Timmy were top 5.

He showed vast improvement. I definately think if he stays training full time he will be top 10 soon. They called out Overeem, I think they may be bitting off a little more than he can chew, again. But Alistair has disapointed in the past, so... |

That's a great question. He has said he will fight till he no longer enjoys the competition. Who knows? Whenever that is, I hope he doesn't end up like CroCop.

Top 15 as of October:
1 Fedor Emelianenko 2 Brock Lesnar 3 Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira 4 Frank Mir 5 Josh Barnett 6 Shane Carwin 7 Junior dos Santos 8 Brett Rogers 9 Randy Couture 10 Andrei Arlovski 11 Alistair Overeem 11 Cain Velasquez 13 Fabricio Werdum 14 Jeff Monson 15 Gabriel Gonzaga Mir is a joke being that high, imo. Fedor dominated NOG and was supposed to fight Barnett until Barnett got caught juicing. He is going to face Werdum next. If he wins, he will fight Overeem for the title. That will be the 3 fights on his current contract. After that, who knows. Maybe Dana will get his head out of his arse and promote the biggest fight in MMA history. I kinda doubt it. If Rogers thinks he is going to get Overeem next, he is dreaming. You don't lose and get a shot at the Champ. ![]()
