It's hard to imagine fedor not having a better answer than gonzaga did though... i think gonzaga could have a chance. barnett plus there's fedor's striking, TD defense, submissions, cardio, footwork knees .... yikes. wise and clever warrior couture has a chance against fedor

The guys a beast, I beleive he can beat Coture, Sylvia, Arlovski and Kongo everyone has a lucky punch but to beat him you need more than a couple of those, hes been rocked by big ass dudes got a little fuzzy legged only to punch dude in the face drop him and rear naked choke him instantly, Someone was saying Bonnar is big name in the UFC that guys career is done hes been beat by some sorry ass dudes like Rashad, fedor would humilate hime. Also people were saying Sobral should make a come back and he almost beat Shogun. Almost doesnt count, Shogun is on another level and I think he will knock out Forrest, but like I always say we have to wait and see.

Chuck’s long awaited return comes in UFC 76 against Keith Jardine. Jardine ain’t no slouch, but I don’t think he has to tools to beat a guy like Chuck Liddell. I predict Jardine losing by knockout within the first round.
