Looks like if Fedor wants to stay relevant he must get quality opponents and the only place to get them is in the U.F.C......

How the fuck is Lesnar above Fedor?  Bullshit.

All of the Fedor nut-huggers will tell you that Fedor doesn't want to sell his soul to Dana or that the best heavyweights are in StrikeFroce.  Or the best one...Fedor doesn't care about his legacy ::)  

The truth is that Fedor was offered the most lucrative MMA contract anyone has ever had, and as the rankings show, the top fighters are in the UFC.

Even though he is no longer the best heavyweight today, I would still like to see how he does against guys like JDS, Carwin, Lesnar & Cain.  

Oh well...

Just look at Fedor's record over the last two years.  He's been fighting nothing but cans, and he lost to the #10 fighter at the time.  I personally don't have him in the top 5.

if this was the BCS computer, Brock would have dropped out of the top 10 with that loss, its worse then the ass kicking the Oregon ducks put on UCLA

Cain Velasquez is the man. Seeing him fight Dos Santos will be ridiculous. The beating he put on Roy Nelson was nuts.

Dude, you're a joke with this Fedor hating crap you always post.  Anyone that says Fedor is the best is a guy?  You're the only person in the world that says he isn't in the top 5.  Lesnar is 5-2.  He went 1-1 with Mir and his only big win is over Carwin.  Fedor is 31-1 against the best fighters in the world.  He went 10 years undefeated.  What athlete has ever come close to doing that?  Every single fighter that has ever fought him said he was by far the best they have ever fought.  Get over it already.

He won't and Fedor will never jump to UFC, so this arguement will go on and on and on...

Really? According the the rankings on the same webpages that you got the info from your opening post, AA and Sylvia were both top 5 opponents when Fedor fought them. Fedor has fought 3 top 10 HW in the last two years, who are all these UFC fighters who have fought better competition than him?

Lesnar has accomplished a lot in a short time frame, and is an exceptional athlete, but Fedor would destroy him.

Because it's not up to Fedor to decide, if you know what I mean.

So are you Fedors Lawyer and were there with him to look over the contracts he was offered by both M1 and the UFC?
How do you know for sure that Dana offered him more than M1 and strikeforce? M1 is owned by Russian billionares with just as much money as Dana and the Ferrittita brothers who own the UFC.

  Epic thread started by Cockspin out of spite and jealously over my thread on the Fedor vs Nogueira fight. The bottom line is that Fedor is the greatest ever according even to UFC champs such as: GSP, Shogun, Couture, Nogueira, Carwin, etc. Cockspin owned. And BTW, Cockspin, Fedor has stated many times that he doesen't give a shit about rankings. And before you claim that he only said that because he lost and dropped from 1 rank, consider that he said that back in 2006 when he was ranked 1 during and interview. ;)
