Fedor would and will destroy any fighter in the UFC heavy weught division, Randy, yeah, he is good for his age but he would not have a chance in hell against fedor. Fedor is the greatest, no matter where he signs.

[quote post=”3232″]If you watch RC fight since his been back (Tim S) he has dominated. Not just won his fights but dominated… TKOd GG who is much younger and BIGGER and looked good doing it. Now we are talking about a GG who DOMINATED Cro Cop on the ground and the standing (Hello! Head Kick!). RC is a force to be noticed. And NEVER underestimated AGAIN!. .
dude Im not trying to down talk Randy. Im mean to be his age and still competing is miraculous and when he was younger he was manhandling all the heavy hitters theres no doubt but to say that hes unstoppable now after beat Tim sylvia and GG is rediculous.. LHW division would destroy Randy and thats a lighter weight..
chuck took randy in less time then TITO for crying outloud and then turned around and got beat by rampage who has and will be destroyed by shogun or wandy..just stating the facts. [/quote]
There are no facts to say the LHW’s would destroy Randy, Randy owned the LHW div. , beating the likes of Vitor Belfort,Tito and Chuck ,all in their prime. Yes, Chuck beat him twice when he was going through a divorce , but if you compare his performance now to then it is obvious that he wasn’t himself. Fighters aren’t immune to the hard times in life. If you’re not impressed by someone beating Tim and GG consider these facts: Tim and GG had only 3 losses combined in their whole careers (thats over 30 guys) and Randy gave them 2 more. These two don’t lose very often and they both have KO power so if you can not only beat them, but dominate them both, then that is very impressive. I’ve never seen anyone mess up their faces the way Randy did. As far as MMAth goes Randy beat Tito and Tito beat Silva and Silva beat Rampage so Randy would destroy Rampage and Wandy. Randy beat Tim and Tim beat Lambert and Lambert beat Sobral and Sobral beat Shogun so for crying out loud, Randy would own Rua. Maybe you meant you were just stating MMAth rather than the facts.

What Cuban sees is an opportunity. He realizes the fighters are not getting paid what they are worth and is working his way into the business through this avenue. Promises of bigger paydays and real representation is what the fighters are lacking. We know it, Dana knows it, and so does Zuffa. They have gotten away with it for years and unless they come up with more suitable figures and pay these guys what they’re worth, Cuban or someone else will come along and keep trying the same thing.

[quote post=”3232″]agree, its now proven that UFC fighters are better than those from Pride (remember a few months ago the back and forth argument about which organisation holds the best) Fedor will never go down in history unless he fights in the UFC - its not just his image he will ruin, but he will also lose a load of fans - lets face it, nobody was excited at the Lindland fight, it was not a challenge. The UFC is a challenge - is he scared or what ???
though i do agree Fedor should be getting paid millions per fight - in his position i would say 5mill per fight
Its now proven.,..hahahah lol funny.. what about rampage…if rampage can beat chuck the essentially he can beat randy, not to mention all the greats from pride have not fought yet..wandy, shogun, fedor, ect. [/quote]
If Rampage can beat Chuck then essentially it tells us nothing. If Randy can beat Chuck , then essentially Randy can beat Chuck. Beating someone doesn’t even prove that you can beat that same guy again, let alone beating someone they beat.

[quote post=”3232″]damn it I cant take it anymore…randy is not that great …he beat gonzaga dude who the hell is gonzaga an nobody…dont yall realize that if randy wouldnt have beat gonzaga(someone who has never been in a championship and who has only beat one worthy person)the way he did then randy’s credibility as a good fighter would have been on the line…Randy is old and regardless of how you feel about him now he was an incredible fighter in his youth and he used to be down right unbeatable… [/quote]
I don’t know where you get that. Randy is much more well rounded and an all around better fighter than he ever was. If anything, now is when he looks unstopable.

[quote post=”3232″]This could be a first step in ending the UFC monopoly in MMA. If Cuban rents out Fedor, he could possibly fight the best in any and every organization- including in the UFC for “one fight deals’. The UFC shouldn’t have such leveraging power in believing they are the key avenue for all the best fighters.[/quote]
The UFC doesn’t do One fight deals for titles.

feet when fighting GG. Thats when he pressed his ass up against the cage and dominated the clinch and cage fence. If fedor can keep him away from him by punching and kicking, he may take the cake.

A real loss not some cut and the fight stopped, a humiliating ko or tko or submission would do nicely. I want randy the under dog to do it, to dominate him standing and on the ground that would be sweet and then finish him in the later rounds.
