May 4 became a very important day for Fedor as he finished his study as a student of chair of physical training at Belgorod State University. It’s understandable that Fedor’s schedule wouldn’t let him graduate as quickly as other students normally do. The topic of his thesis was ‘Methodology of physical skills development training 13-15 year old sambo practitioners.’ Of course he was in the grip of slight emotion but years of hard training regimen helped him keep his composure while answering the questions with a smile. The topic was chosen intentionally since Fedor himself tried and proved all the methods he offered during his graduate work. By the way, the Fedor Emelianenko’s Sports Academy which is being built in Belgorod will soon test Fedor’s strategies of bringing up the best athletes.
Fedor Emelianenko — the last man to hold the Pride FC heavyweight belt — is now certified to train young Russians how to kick ass. He’ll get to soon demonstrate his new degree for his future students against former UFC heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia at the Affliction MMA debut at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., on July 19.

are scholarships only offered to russians?
COOL… looks funny in the grad cap though.
For those that dont knowk, besides being the badest man alive, he is a great person! you could not ask for a classier, respectful, and more honorable champion!
All Hail King Fedor!
Now that Tim Sylvia isnt under exclusive contract anymore, after he looses to Fedor, I would like to see Tim Sylvia man up and Fight Semmy Shilt in DREAM!!!
Semmy Shilt would destroy Tim. I really want to see Tim fight someone where he wont enjoy such a size advantage. Shilt would give Tim the beating off his life!
Fedopr beat shilt in his 1st fight in Pride, Tim is an easier fight than Shilt for Fedor IMO!
This man kicks ass
it won’t help when Sylvia knocks him out.
Affliction 2
Fedor vs. Rickson
it’ll never happen because they aint gonna be no affliction 2, in the unlikely event that it did happen it would be in japan probably DREAM. how old is rickson now about 50? plus he weighs about 185lbs dosn’t he or at least use to.
Wow, I need to pull out my Fedor Facts…..
FEDOR FACT: Fedor’s piss is the main ingredient in Xyience Energy drink.
FEDOR FACT: When Fedor was little, he wanted to be a cosmonaut. That dream died when Fedor realized he could literally fly.
FINAL FEDOR FACT: Fedor never cries, only the people he chases cry.
The first classes taught by Fedor will be:
1) How to Pick Fights to Your Own Advantage
2) Tomato Cans And You 101
3) How to Turn a Cut into a No-Contest Victory
4) Armbars: All I Know How To Do
Thats the comment of the day!!!
Sean M-
Hahahahaha !!!! Damn, that’s good…
Speaking of dream matches did anybody know that Antonio Inoki fought Muhammad Ali in an MMA match? From what I could gather it was originally supposed to be a Japanese Pro Wrestling match, but fearing Inoki would actually fight Ali for real during the match, his camp changed the rules to a very limited MMA match; the rules disallowed for any sort of takedowns or grappling, and also no kicks to the head. You can find the fight on youtube, and basically its a 15 minute fight to a draw where Ali lands few punches and Inoki lands a score of leg kicks. Allegedly, Ali had to get medical attention after the bout…
That could only loosely be called MMA (compared to what we know it as today). If I remember correctly, Inoki laid on his back the whole time because Ali would’ve MURDERED him had he stood up.
You don’t remember correctly! Inoki laid on his back because the stupid rules set up by Ali’s camp would only allow him to strike from the ground and he wasn’t allowed to take him down either! Why don’t people read complete threads before putting in their two cents?
haha i love the last part where they say sacramento california not anaheim… it’s only like a 9 hour difference between the places
You know Dana is pulling for Sylvia.
wow so much fedor bashing today whats going on here?? everyone forget how sick of a fighter this guy really is??? trash him as much as you want, you can’t denie the fact that he was at one point P4P fighter. and the top heavy weight.. and right now ya his toughest test will be tim silvia, but im sure once he goes through him… Randy couture will be right on board signing with Affliction once his legal battle with the UFC is over for his final fight of his career.
I hope he gets a UFC contract, the guy is amazing, i watched Fedor vs Cro Cop and it was incredible, he’s the first i’ve seen take cro cops head kick and just keep on going
Dana White is too cheap to sign Fedor! And Dana won’t let Fedor fight anyone in the UFC unless Fedor signs up too! These are all facts that can be easily verified, so before you haters out there open your traps, educate yourselves properly!
Honda Center is in Anaheim
Seriously, Fedor probably has got really bad body odor, cause he doesn’t seem to have many other possiblities for weak points.
1. He’s an awesome fighter
2. Respectful, Humble, Patient, Composed, etc.
3. Judging from videos he looks like a good father and family man
4. He can draw
5. He has a college degree
