This Finkelstain has his own interest in mind, not Fedor's.
He stands to gain more than Fedor with this new M-1 org.
Fedor was set to take his biggest pay yet with the UFC, not including sponsers;
but that took a backseat to Finkelstein's plans to promote this new org.
I'm thinking he pulled a fast one on Dana and had this planned with Randy all along.
Now he can bring Randy to M-1 and put on the MMA fight of the century! It's genius.
Dana was totally played!
It makes sense.

Randy under contract for two more fights with the UFC, so not gonna happen

Nope. He's out of the contract. The only stipulation is he has to wait 9 months before fighting again.
He needs that time to recover and train anyway.
Now Fedor is getting a 10 million dollar deal according to the Trigg.
Randy had a deal going with Finkelstein/M-1 BEFORE he left the UFC.
Why would he quit and lose all that money without securing something better first? He wouldn't.
The movie stuff is just something he's saying so Dana isn't set off yet...wait and see.
He doesn't have any movie deal.
The people backing M-1 are going to put a Randy/Fedor fight together and make MMA as big as the NFL.
There is serious money behind this now. It's something that's been long in the works; Dana was played by Finkelstein.
This fight is going to happen.

that'll never happen but it is the best way to get M-1 off it's feet and on it's way to competing with the UFC

well, while i usually dont agree with you on almost nothing you say, this (while being a lot difficult to happen) really makes a lot of sense
i myselft think it would be simply great, because it would be a bitchslap on Dana´s face and hopefully would start a big organization to compete with UFC

Dana would have never paid fedor 2 million a fight which is what he wanted. Dana is a greedy bastard and it WILL be his downfall!

No, being a greedy bastard got him where he is today.
There are other greedy bastards with deeper pockets though.

Dana was willing to make concessions to Fedor for the GUARANTEED money (this pissed off Couture). He wanted exclusive rights to Fedor and wanted to dictate where and when he could fight. Combat Sambo (where Fedor is a three time world champ) was not one of them.

True, Dana is like a little kid. Wont let his fighters fight anywhere else but with him. My prediction is that he will be losing some top tier fighters real soon.

::) If he invested 2 mil in Fedor (whom the American public don't know well) and he got injured in combat sambo that wouldn't be very good business.
Also, other fighters would want the same loose contract.

You're retarded if you actually think that the american public dont know who Fedor is. Only TUF newbs like you dont know who Fedor is...

i agree. i think it will come back. to tell you the truth..i hope it does. the ufc needs competition. the athletes deserve more money.

i agree. even if the ufc invested the money in fedor they could put a stipulation in the contract if he gets injured in sambo the contract is void.

I honestly dont think that money is all Dana cares about. I think alot of it is childish in the fact that he wants to wave it in everyones face that he has the best fighter in the world you know.
-
Why would Dana pay 2 mil to a guy that could possibly get injured in combat Sambo.
That would be a stupid investment. Dana's not stupid.

You didn't answer the question.
Why the hell would he let him compete in combat sambo (which is close to mma)
and risk getting injured if he's investing 2 mil in the guy?

i already came up with a solution for this. like i said before he could be put in the contract that if fedor gets injured in sambo it voids the ufc contract
bottom line is dana white IS greedy and he has a monopoly and does what he wants to do

I've never watched more than one episode of Tuff and that's because Shammy was coaching.
