		<description>Update on negotiations between Fedor &#38; UFC

By Zach Arnold

M-1, the promotion operated by Vadim Finkelstein (Fedor's backer), has announced some news regarding their contract negotiations (on behalf of Fedor) with UFC.

According to the M-1 office, Finkelstein and UFC negotiated terms of a contract that would allow the PRIDE Heavyweight champion to fight in the Octagon. M-1 claims that the negotiations were a success and that the parties agreed to what the terms of the UFC contract would be. However, M-1 claims that when UFC sent the contract to their office, the terms of the deal were "absolutely different' than what had been negotiated and that management did not agree on what was stated in the contract. This is why, according to M-1, Fedor has not signed a contract with UFC.






sounds like UFCs fault, by providing different information that was already agreed on. Sneaky bastards. If i was a fighter I wouldn't sign with someone trying to fuck me over.</description>

		<description>LISTEn, im noticing a backlash against Fedor for some reason.  to say that randy is the best heavyweight in the world is absurd. sure, hes the champ, cause he beat a big goofball, thats basically only a boxer (tim sylvia), all randy did was keep taking him down. as for gonzaga, the guy has what, 8 fights, lol. lets look at randys heavyweight career, how many times has he lost to heavyweights, numurous times. he was ko'd by lidell twice. and lets face it people, fedor hits a hell of alot harder than lidell does.  how many times has fedor lost,  ummm, noneee. randy is good solid mma fighter, but to compare him to a monster like fedor is not smart.  fedor will destroy him in a stand up battle, and think about it, how many submissions does randy have, compare that to how many subs fedor has.  either way, randy is in severe trouble.  prides heavyweight devision was known to be far superior to ufc's heavyweight devision.  until they got, cro cop and nog, whom fedor has already beaten. he destroyed nog severely in their last fight.  so please, don't hold the fact that there is no contract yet for fedor with the ufc to start denegrating him.  oh, and for him to not want to fight bob sapp, probably only cause hed kill sapp like nothing. lets get real.  and be afraid to fight tim sylvia, fedor would kill sylvia, please.</description>

		<description>All right, I have read almost all the comment, obviously some people here simply do not have enough knowledge about situation. Let's not argue who is #1 heavyweight in the world, let's just look at the records. Fedor has not lost a single fight in his career while all others did. Please do not feed me a crap about his supposedly weak opponents. Randy has lost to Chuck twice, once to Belfort, Ricco Rodriguez, and Josh Barnett within last 5 and 1/2 years. I would agree that he is a rise with his great last 2 victories but it does not mean that he would destroy Fedor. 

Fairy tale about Fedor not wanting to fight Sylvia is another myth. He fought Mark Hunt who is 275 lb versus Fedor's 231 lb. He also fought Zuluzinho who is 390-406lbs, who is that good match? Do not try to say that Tim Sylvia is better than Mark Hunt cause real fans of mma will laugh at you. 
Besides all that, one of the main reasons Fedor is not signing right now is because he does not want to be committed to UFC only. It is very important to him to fight in his homeland and do sambo tournaments whenever he needs to. It's about his pride besides money. 

Even in case he will never sign with UFC, the man has nothing to prove in this sport, he already did. Although, let's hope we see him fighting soon regardless of outcomes</description>

		<description>It's interesting people making all these accusations of Fedor refusing to fight certain people, but then not providing links as evidence.</description>

		<description>Fedor is coming.

But unlike other fighters, he has the bargaining power on his side. When the UFC offers the right money AND a non-exclusibe contract, he will be there.

In the meantime, enjoy watching the current crop of heavyweights for the last time on the main card. (minus Randy)</description>
