For the first time ever, all of Fedor's fights in a highlight - except the 3 losses since this is a tribute.
It is amazing what a savage he was in his prime. A beast. His speed, power and versatility are on a level never matched by any fighter in any weight class. The stuff he did in his fights were RI-DI-CU-LOUS. The way he transitions his striking to takedowns and how he crafts his submissions on the ground are mind blowing. We have not seen anything like it before or since.
Another thing is what a fantastic wrestler Fedor was. His takedowns are insane. Because the speed and power of his punching and his submissions were so incredible, péople forget what a World-class wrestler Fedor was. His wrestling is better than that of guys like Brock and as good or better than guys like Sonnen who's bread-and-butter is wrestling. He could have represented Russia at the Olympics in pure Greco-Roman wrestling. It was that good.

Lol@ completely schooling a prime Mirko in the standup.

He's the perfect example of that u dont have to be muscular and/or strong to be a great fighter.
Speed and technique.

if they fought i n 2005 yes fedor would win , now he has zero chance
-
I remember Overeem fighting in pride FC and he was not as good and as famous as now. Of course Fedor would have knock him out. At that time (Pride Fc time) they were only Fedor and Wanderlei that were among others. If you look before that Rickson Gracie was also among the top.

2003 Ronnie coleman has 100 poounds of muscle on him. Would destroy this fedor.

Fedor is 230 pounds with wide, powerful hips. Hes a strong guy and
that hip strength has served him innumerable times.

like the times he fucked your mom ?

Best fighter technically? Probably not. But most exciting fighter of the last 2-3 decades? Certainly.

DBX, my mom would settle for nothing less than someone of Fedors calibre. Your mom on the other hand has had her nasty snatch plundered and desecrated by every 'aspiring rapper' in the neighborhood. At least on of them cared enough about you to not only leave your moms nasty snatch gaping, but to also bestow their rap name on you.

well Fedor is also 4 time world champ in sambo so I'm sure he would do extremly well in wrestling aswell yes.
but who cares about wrestling. wrestling is as outplayed as boxing. mma is where it's at. determines the best fighter, period.

A little perspective.
Antonio acromegaly/Bigfoot Silva, cloese his right eye for him :D

A tribute should include the Mans Losses - I admired the way fedor accepted his losses, my esteem for fedor increased after his losses and not the other way round - and the dude still came back and fought hard guys, and still fought to win - def include his losses, there is no shame in Fedors career - man is warrior - true warrior & not propoganda UFC one.

I can't picture any alternate universe were a semi literate cave dwelling, sex slave keeping, 5 bouncer bashing and pure Alpha male Overeem would bother with Getbig.

Disagree. Fedor is very, very strong. His core strength is off the charts, imo.

As I was a big fan of old Pride Fc, I regret UFC. I miss the pride fc time. I think UFC is to much American such business adversing and show.
When I go to UFC website, it's a joke as the bodybuilding industry of supplement.
There is no more technic its just pure brutality and you have tons of fighter that have no skill just boxing hardcore...
Of course in Pride FC you had also bad fighter but much less.
For me MMA isn't UFC.

Yeah, Big Nog(UFC HW champ), CroCop(K-1 finalist), Mark Coleman(UFC HW champ), Semmy Shilt(K-1 champ), Heath Herring, Randelman(UFC HW champ), Garry Goodrich, Renato Sobral(Brazilian BJJ champion), Ricardo Arona, Andrei Arlovki(UFC HW champ), Mark Hunt.
All these guys were bums...and you are a moron.

He was overrated and "ruled" the heavyweights during the division's lowest point. He is no longer a top 10 heavyweight and he is still in his prime. He has not had any injuries of any significance. He is just not good enough.

Right. So a 35 year old man who has been fighting professionally for 15 year is still in his prime? Do you have any idea how stupid you sound? 35 is pretty old for a professional athlete, and he has been fighting for 15 years.
As for the heavyweights not being great, trust me, Big Nog and Cro Cop in their primes would decimate the current UFC heavyweight division. Just look at Mark Hunt, a guy who Fedor beat, who eaily beat Ben Rothwell at UFC 140.

I am the exception to that rule although i am a big bodybuilder, I use to wrestle in high school so I will pick you up and slam you on the floor if you piss me off.

I would say he was one of the strongest MMA fighter.
And they are not strong... I'm much stronger than him for sure...and he could beat my ass very bad...
-

True

Fedor was the baddest mouther fucker of all time. He isn't even close to his prime anymore. You can see it in his eyes the guy doesn't even care about fighting anymore. All the religious stuff made him soft the money and the fame finally caught up to him.

This .... Fedor was the baddest and now on his way down people are bashing him, and people that say he defeated cans, 4 UFC heavy weight champs spread out from over a ten year period and many number 1 contenders and many others, yet they all failed against him, he wasn't going to stay on top for ever obviously.
-
The tenacity of Fedor the way he put everything he had into every fucken swing is like watching art. The guy was a just the master of destruction. No one will match that for a long time.
-

You're wrong. Fedor is strong. He doesn't need to be excessively strong--at a certain point there are diminishing returns. But you have to have a minimum amount of strength to utilize technique effectively. A 185 pound Fedor would be much less effective than his 233 pound self.
Most men are around 155 165 pounds. Fedor is much heavier and stronger than most men.
Speed, accuracy, technique, strength (especially core strength) are all components of his success.

Exactly. Fedor is GOAT
-
The proof that he was past his prime is him losing in Sambo for the first time after being undefeated then shortly after losing in mma, common sense. Fedor was a legend 8)

that compilation was awesome... the only fedor fight i saw reasonably close to "live" was the one against silva. i really wish he would have beat silva, werdum, and henderson.
of course he has to lose sooner or later, but all of those losses were so lame. especially silva!
never seen another mma fighter punch so brutally.
-
2003 Ronnie coleman has 100 poounds of muscle on him. Would destroy this fedor.
and a 2011 Big Show has two HUNDRED pounds on Coleman, buh by 'big Ron.'
Serious though, Fedor= G.O.A.T. fucking animal in 2005..

Fedor could toss a 100lb heavy bag way further than anyone here. Thats what type of strong he is.

X2 That shot he laid out Brett Rogers with was one of the biggest punches I have ever seen. I remember seeing that fight live....a definite OMG,WTF moment!

The fights with Nogueira were legendary. Even though Antonio took the worst of it, he never quit or got put down. Two warriors for sure.
Fuck I miss PRIDE...
