Anti-Fedor Zombies

Seems like there has been an upkick in the hogwash that is the Fedor Hating, baseless arguments to say that he isn't #1 P4P in the universe because he isn't surrounded by multiple walls of Chicken Wire (oh wait, he is) in the USA (oh shit, there's another one) fighting bigger guys that can put him on his back (fuck me...goddam) that he isn't worthy of the #1 P4P king.
Somehow, despite Fedor showing dominance in every aspect of martial arts for over a decade, it seems that it is all for naught lest he somehow go to the UFC to face their "elite" division.
(Okay, so Kimbo and Nelson are a stretch, lol)
Some of this stems from Dana Whites superb display of rhetoric (see: yelling like a domestic abuser) vs Ariel "Crocop is a disgrace to MMA" Helwani (See: Dana's lapdog aka an Iole aka Yahoo Sports).
The rest of it stems from an apparent resurgence in a "deep" UFC HW division.
Apparently the only competition that Fedor should fight has only recently surfaced...and only in the UFC....lets see:
First off we have Cain Velasquez and Frank Mir....
Cain was seen as the latest threat as he's out wrestled and out muscled everyone, including stopping Nogueria. Mir as well, tapped out the mighty giant (with a lil help from his friends) and too got a stoppage on Nogueira.
I'm sorry, but if stopping a man like Big Nog who was the #1 HW when Fedor simply put him through the meat grinder (similar to the way in which GSP puts the best in the WW..and you dont see anyone putting GSP down a notch for his grind-em-"dominating"-decisions?) back in Nog's heyday, what is the relevance when Fedor beat him at his best? Nog has seen better days, and surely people see that fact.
Then there is the fact that JDS and Shane Carwin are the KO artists that can lay Fedor to rest...
Again, my apologies, but since when is Fedor a bad striker? let alone bad at hitting his mark?

We have those saying that competition outside the UFC sucks...
Brett Rogers
yes, he had an honest job, he did what he could to support himself and his family. Those comments are disgusting. The guy also never saw passed the 1st round, he was "SMASHING" every opponent until he met Abongo Humphrey who also was a KO artist. After the loss to Rogers, Humphrey went on to finish George Bush III in a SF card a few weeks ago..in the first round.
But i guess only Shane Carwin is the guy that Fedor has to fight...you know...since he doesn't get out of the first round..and can "SMASH" all comers.
Fabricio Werdum
Werdum is somehow thought of as an unworthy opponent...why so? certainly he is a better level than Thales Leites, Patrick Cote or Dan Hardy? Werdum was nothing short of making a comeback to defeat that "can" Mike Kyle (who had just dispatched of Rafael "Feijao" Cavalcante - a Blackhouse fighter...butI guess only Junior Dos Santos can get street cred solely for existing in that camp).
Werdum then dispatched of Antonio Silva, the EliteXC Champion, who ventured out of the 1st round only 2 times in his MMA career before facing Werdum. Needless to say, i suppose "not seeing the second round" was something that only Shane Carwin can use as a reason to show why he can fight Fedor.
It seems that somehow, Shane Carwin was granted a title shot with Lesnar for defeating Gabriel Gonzaga by KO...Lesnar though, fell ill and the match was postponed...
Then by some miracle...JDS was matched up with Gabriel Gonzaga, KO'd him..and is now on the back burner until he is ready for a Title Shot all his own.
Well..who else has dispatched of Gabriel Gonzaga before he was used goods in the UFC HW division:
Werdum was in the UFC and had a title shot in line to go up against the winner of Tim Sylvia and Big Nog, but that fell through with the Loss to JDS (this is the main reason Dana is protecting Cain/JDS..he doesn't want the contenders to lose between title shots)
So when I hear that Werdum isn't "worthy" "is a can" i just wanna do this:
Needless to say, Fedor is still fighting top ranked HWs, I'm sorry they aren't under the announcement by Bruce Buffer (oh wait, that already happened before..and unlike the other UFC HWs...Fedor has been introduced by the better Buffer:
) or on spiketv after TNA Impact, but Fedor is still in his prime, is still kicking lots of ass, and isn't bowing down to Dana White unlike some fighters that tried to stick up for themselves.
So please, do your own homework, stop with the same Dana-White-Kool-Aid-Anti-Fedor-Zombie-Rhetoric and get with the program:
Fedor is the #1 P4P fighter in MMA. He has been for many years, and will be for many to come.
