i think we need to look at the fact that rogers was handing fedor his ass in a few instances.. i thought rogers had him when that ground and pound was going on and he did handle fedor in the first round.. now, that being said, he did knock in out in the second.. but, should a fighter of rogers talent even have given fedor that much trouble in the first round? when fedor fought "the pit bull" arlovski he was also getting his ass handed to him before the arlovski did a stuipid move and fedor capitalized on it and was able to ko him..
i am not trying to take away from fedor.. but, his last three fights have looked bad.. he still won.. but i truly dont beleive that fedor wanted a ufc fight.. they werent going to give him a rogers.. and if you are having trouble with rogers, as much as i hate lesner, fedor would not take lesner..
