Recent rumors about Emelienanko?s next opponent centered on a rematch with PRIDE and UFC veteran Mirko ?Cro Cop? Filipovic but, according to the report, Emelianenko will instead fight a ?judo legend or sumo wrestler? at the New Year?s Eve event.:mj07:

Funny how some actually consider him #1 pound for pound fighter....cracks me up:142smilie


Way to go Fedor...keep those quality opponents coming...keep collecting that cash, and keep ducking fighters....thatta boy Fedor....thatta boy:bsflag

And I am NOT kidding.....but I actually have more respect for Kimbo then I do for Fedor. At least Kimbo acknowledges that he needs to fight better fighters. This piece of crap Fedor refuses to fight like a champion. Look at the fighters GSP has fought, look at who Anderson has fought, and then look at the pathetic resume of Fedor.........Fedor = scum

Fedor wasn't cleared in time to fight in the upcoming PPV, so Arlovski will fight Barnett and the winner will fight Fedor in the next PPV.

Not sure where this info is coming or why.

The info is from the recent issue of Sports Illustrated

i kinda thought it was bogus but the site pretty much is always right. Lets see tomorrow

Well, I was basing off of what Monte Cox had said, his agent, manager, whatever the hell you want to call him. Idk much about SI and their knowledge of MMA so I won't assume they're wrong either.

I know that alot of Fedor not coming to the UFC had alot more to do with him wanting to do other events back in Russia other than MMA and the UFC wants sole rights to their fighters, as we all know.

Yes Fedor will fight Arlovski on New Years Eve, but Arlovski will have to wear one of those Sumo diapers :142smilie

Fedor is such a joke in my eyes, great fighter but one massive joke:nono:
