It’s interesting to see Swedor and Tito ring the opening bell in a state they can’t even compete in. Perhaps “The Baddest Sweater on the Planet” will one day see action in the Empire State as MMA’s biggest stars continue to ground and pound their way into pop culture.

And then the market fell…lol damn Tito!
wow guys, that Fedor documentary was freakin unbelievable! If you haven’t watched it, do it!
give me a link.
it’s 2 threads down (maybe 3) google link!
can’t wait for affliction to sink like the titanic.
tito is gonna feel stupid, and golden boy is going to say “we never shook on it”
And why the hell would you like that to happen Mikeybear2009, just cuz you dont like Tito? I will buy the card this weekend because its a solid card, i want to see them do well, we need someone to compete with the UFC. These guys are open to cross promotion fights and they are elevating fighters pay. They are taking huge risks doing this and you can only respect that. People will be losing millions, some may be lucky enough to have more in bank, i wont mention names but many of the ones who cant afford to lose will be ruined and will have to start over. They are dedicating their lives to make something GOOD! Most of them are people who love the sport and want to make it bigger, betterand obviously profitable ( nothing wrong with that ). Stop hating ppl
Totally agree. I just wish I could do my bit over here in the UK. Unfortunately noone is carrying the PPV and one of the main providers (Setanta) has puts all the UFC / Spike related shows on so I doubt they will want to sour their relationship by putting on an Affliction card just yet.
Hopefully Sky sports run with it for the next one. Im sure there would be a lot of buyers over here from what I can tell.
Ca$z just to let you know it’s on Bravo sunday night at 9pm replayed.
Anyone looking for a decent version of the show on download can find it on usenet and torrents as I think it deserves to be seen in full high quality over Google vid. If you have no clue what I am talking about just head over to Google instead as you need to see it.
Just search: Fedor – baddest man on the planet
or just: Fedor
Hope this helps some people.
Thanks for the info max. Are you referring tho the Affliction card or the Fedor documentary?
If its the actua card I’ll have probably already watched it 10 times by then! But thanks anyway.
great post prime!
fedor should have this 1 but arlovski has a chance … cannot get over the size of tito’s head lol
I just read somewhere that they are replaying it today at 7 pm on FSN. I am going home for lunch now and I will confirm for those interested
just watch it online…no commercials, google has it broken into 6 sections, commercial free!
Yeah it was an amazing documentary. I really dont understand how every single person on this planet is not a die hard Fedor fan. He is just a straight up WINNER, and what a humble and classy person. I admittedly swing from his nuts as his number 1 fan, but if you are going to hang from a fighters nuts, it might as well be the G.O.A.T ! I am selling WWFD (What would Fedor do) bracelets! lol
btw, Tito Ortiz does not deserve to be in the same picture as Fedor the GOD!
DANG!! Look how much bigger Tito looks than Fedor(Maybe it is just his head), makes me wonder how Fedor can possiblly as big of a HW as he is, which isnt that big, but still. Or, how in the hell does Tito fight at LHW so healthily?
Just watched it. Amazing documentary as it brings all the information from other sources and mini documentaries done on him in the past into 1 complete show and then some.
Being a total, dare I say it nuthugger myself of Fedor I am also really surprised why there is such hate and negativity. I was a huge fan since his first fights in Pride and assumed everyone who had seen his fights would feel the same way. Either way he will remain my favourite fighter and I will support him for as long as he chooses to fight as the man is a hero and a warrior.
A true ambassador of the sport if there ever was one.
FEDOR for ever and ever amen!
Kev, I DVR’d something from 4-5 on FSN that I believe was it. When I do watch, I’ll be fast forwarding commercials. Ever since the invention of the DVR my biggest pet peave has become commercials. I only watch from my DVR. I’ll record it and start watching 1/2 hour later and be caught up by the time the show ends… blah blah blah blah blah….
Right. Some consumer confidence: Obama gets inaugurated and the market has it’s biggest inauguration day drop ever. Nice!!!
It was Tito not Obama – the pic confirms it
Tito is probably as qualified as Obama, so maybe you are right.
I’m not an Obama supporter, but WTF is up with War Machine aka Douche Bag?
Well… his name is War Machine!! Did you expect in depth political views?
Did you hear about that? I read he said that he hopes Obama gets smoked or something.
YOU guys got to go read what he said….THe kid is just STUPID! He cant really help himself. Everytime he opens his mouth, I wish Yoshida would show up and choke his lights out again!
Dude, did Fedor only bring one (hella sweet) sweater with him to the states. Someone has to tell him this is not Russia. You are allowed to have more than one outfit.
the pic was yesterday,
mexi, you down for the trip?
Depending on the dates. What event were you guys thinking of again?
aug/sept
It was this morning. Same sweater, different day.
seriously? I read they were there yesterday mania…check your source!! or maybe I’m wrong! If this is the same sweater different day, I will piss myself laughing!
Cool. I think I could swing that. When you get more details let me know.
As for Fedor’s sweater, I heard his shorts for the Arlovski fight are the same design because his big new sponsors are FruitStripe Gum and the United Colors of Benetton.
my bad mania, the link I had said yesterday (which is why I sent you the story yesterday). I don’t know what to think, did Fedor bring a suitcase on that 30 hour journey?
Clearly he doesnt give a sh*t. Theres nothing wrong with wearing a sweater on twice. You ppl and your material world…PATHETIC. He may like it or it may have sentimental value to it. maybe a company is paying his 1mill$ to wear it and stir sh*t up. Besides you can make fun all you want, he knows he can beat the fun out of you haha
Awe, does somebody have the same sweater…….
I’ll fess up: I had a sweater like that, but then I quit the circus!
Maybe his boyfriend gave it to him
i love your new handle psyqo
I figured you would B…
i was having a little man period the other day sorry i jumped down your throat
It’s all good bro, we disagree on stuff so what. It happens…..oh yeah !!!!
Awww, how sweet you two are.
That being said, I apologize too. Although i wasn’t mad I was just having fun with it and kept it going…..!
Just kiss and make up or just do what ever it is you three do, but knock it off. OH OH is that you grammer nazi… sorry please dont correct my grammer or spell check me.
You tell him.
I don’t want to be the one to tell him that he dresses like a muppet.
My eyes have been bleeding for 2 days now , ever since I saw that sweater.
Yes and it was chosen for him by Jean Claude VanDamme after a tender peck on the cheek.
Hahahahaha!!!!
just watched it….hands down best doc I’ve ever seen on any fighter at any time…mark my words that someday there will be a movie made about Fedor’s life….favorite part had to be when he said Tim Sylvia, then started laughing
I know I pissed myself when he did that
Well nearly….lol
that was pretty funny
Fedor just may have revived our economy by gracing us with his presence at Nasdaq.
lol, the market did terrible yesterday…but it was Tito’s fault! speaking of tito and his genious, I was thinking last night, I’ve banged a lot of slutty girls, but I’m smart enough not to knock one up or fall in love with a whore! Does this make me smarter than Tito, which in turn makes me the smartest man/businessman on earth?
yes
Hey hey hey, she is a professional world famous whore. Get it straight, buddy.
I have know idea what makes a man fall in love with a porn star-they are probably like the ultimate hook-up, but thats it. I’d hope for his sake that maybe he’s just pulling a K-Fed on her, but then I heard him on Stern with her as well as other interviews he has done and he just seems to goo-goo ga-ga over her for that to seem like a possibility.
Gross. Repeatedly shoving his wang into that Arby Melt she calls a snootch.
PW-
You should consider stand up with your zingers
how does mexi say that, but mine gets moderated??
I heard its like trying to have intercourse with a pint glass full of warm water.
I heard it was like banging a jar of mayonaise or throwing a hotdog down a hallway!
I heard her kids fell out when she got up to walk around, both at the same time, like baby bungie jumping!
I heard tito sticks his head up there!
lmao , hotdog down a hallway. nice one.
I hate mayo =(
how about a toothpick in the grand canyon?
Throwing a straw through a basketball hoop?
LOL, you guys are hilarious!!
Catipillar in the subway? Anyone? Anyone?
riding a bicycle into an airplane hangar
Jenna is so blown out, I heard she doesnt even feel anything during child Labor! hahahah
I heard that Tito has to eat her from the inside…. out
She said she had it “rejuvenated” does that mean its new again.
How many is alot? fathers lock up your fat sweaty daughters! Kevin is on the loose…
I think that Fedor’s sweater may have just surpassed Barack Obama in media coverage over the past couple days!!!!!!
5. WILL ANNOUNCER TITO ORTIZ USE THE TERM “FOR SURE” MORE OR LESS THAN 24 TIMES?
More, for sure.
Phil,
Are you saying 24 times in the first fight or the entire broadcast?
LMAO!!!
haha…this is great. Question….why is Tito involved in this? Its not like hes fighting anytime soon….does anyone know Tito’s status anyway? Is he going to sign with Affliction?
he’s waiting, if he signs now, the UFC has the option to match ANY offer! This clause is void in june or july, at which point he can sign with anyone.
with all this time to heal, he should come back 100%, which for me is exciting, I think he is under rated!
He is underrated these days. He doesn’t look bad now drawing with Rashad especially considering the circumstances of the fight. He’s never lost to anyone that’s not at the pinnacle of the sport.
That being said I don’t seem him winning a belt in the UFC.
Slow Down Robh! The draw against Rashad was pathetic. If he fights Rashad today, Tito gets KTFO! That was Rashads 1st fight against a big name opponent. Rashad didnt realize that he belonged in their with Tito until the 3rd round, and then Rashad started whooping on him. Same thing happened when Forrest fought Tito. Rashad would destroy Tito if they fought today!
Rashad had Tito up in the air for slams at least three times that Tito defended by grabbing the cage. If Rashad plants him he could have had a GnP stoppage, or at least a decisive decision win.
Please,how about go back and watch how many times Rashad grabbed the fence,but somehow did not get penelized,everybody knows Tito really won the fight with Rashad
Tito got docked a point, and STILL pulled out a draw. Tito won that fight minus the penalty in the mind of the judges.
Today? Not so sure the same fight would go down.
Scott your right on point. John, for being such a “smart” mma fan hmmmm you should dont tell it how it is. Tito won that fight and guy grab the fence all the time and dont get dock. JOHN = HATER
i am not hating, TIto is just literally Garbage! How many years did it take the UFC to drag him into the ring to fight Liddell? My point exactly!
Tito = Bitchmade!
Wiggy = On my Nuts!
I sure hate Rashad and I hate Tito just as much, but since Rashad is the LHW champ now, he has replaced Tito as my number 1 fighter to HATE on. I wish Tito would have beat him and done is old grave digging routine that I DISPISE!!!….it would have been funny though. I’m pissed about the Rampage/Rashad fight falling through. I still call BS on that one. I honestly think Rampage wussed out, because Rashad is way to cocky to turn down any fight right now and Rampage was the one talking about how he didnt want a title shot after he KO’d Wanderlei, saying as an excuse, that he wanted to fight Forrest….give me a break!!!
I think that they are paying him to help call the event which sucks because the other two guys in the booth are actually good at it.
he’s in talks to come back to the UFC… Dana said he isn’t against him coming back he just doesnt like him. Its Tito’s enormous head keeping him from fighting right now.
“tito’s head keeping him from fighting.” he had back surgery and can’t fight until summer! his head just keeps him from saying too much that is worth listening too!
No doubt its his back but his back hurts from carrying around that watermelon on top of his shoulders. The guys head must weigh a ton!
Look at the pic… his head is easily 2 times the size of Fedor’s… its huge
Actually, it is his bad back that is keeping him from fighting right now.
would it not make sense to have arlovski there??
affliction needs someone to better guide their marketing..
Yes I liked his trick where he promised his friend 5 grand if he fights & after the fight he paid in 5000 Belarussian roubles (which is like 2 bucks)
Gayness. And whoever it was yesterday that made the point of these knuckleheads having their presser on the day Obama’s was being inaugurated beat me to the punch as well as hit the nail right on the head. I wonder what the geniuses in their market and PR departments were thinking, “Oh. I just had an idea. Let’s have a press conference on Inauguration Day.” I dont know who is dumber, the people that thought of the idea or the higher up’s like Atencio for signing off on it.
Graham confirmed what most of us were thinking.
It really is amazing what a bone-headed move that was…
Why are you guys still talking about Tito’s head?
Because it just won’t freaking go away.
Because its HUGE.
Its like Tito was meant to be 10 feet tall and his body has not grown in proportion with his head.
He’ll cry himself to sleep tonight on a huge pillow.
it’s like sputnik….
it’s like sputnik….
don’t know why it posted twice and 3 sec. apart at that……
Where’s Dana?
I must have missed him.
better question is where is AA? Tito is promoting an event he’s not in! AA isn’t anywhere.
did you guys see Babalu’s head behind Fedor?
That’s the eternal douche Jerry Millen.
huh, the face obscured by fedor is babalu!!
Kevin, sorry but I am pretty sure that is Millen.
I’ll bet anyone and everyone 100 each that it is babalu. don’t take the bet if you’re not willing to pay!
Babalu is only an inch taller and that guy behind Fedor is about 5 in. taller than him and lankey.
take the bet!
I just watched the video of it. One of the most akward things I have ever seen!
I will take the bet and raise you 5… watch the video Kevin, it’s Millen.
Kevin,
Save the hundo and watch the bid. Can’t tell for sure if it is Millen, but I’m certain it is not Babalu.
Damn Jeff, Man an extra hundred is always nice to have……
You are basing your claim off 1 picture, I watched video and saw multiple pictures and it is 100% millen, i can sense his douchebaggery through 10 feet of concrete.
And if you still dont believe it..
http://mma.us/mmaphotos/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=3214&g2_serialNumber=1
There is a picture with “babalu” in focus.
I would never take a bet knowing the result already
you’re right (see I can say it) he’s got the babalu haircut and shirt going on. my bad!
Pay up sucka…. just kidding Kev.
Damn….Fedor picked Matt Horwich as his ’spiritual advisor’
Fedor was probably at one of his fights where he was throwing bibles into the crowd!!
AA is worthless when it comes to promoting fights. Have you ever heard an Arlovski interview? He says even less then Andy Reid!
AA did spout off one of the all-time classic lines: How taste my pee pee?
That was the best interview ever. lmao , wish I still had that on my pc.
Can somebody please give him one of his OWN affliction shirts..
is tito taller than fedor or is dat just his fucken big ass head? he’s got some kinda tumor goin on in dat head.
I heard BJ refused to further tape the primetime special because of the way he was portrayed.
is this true??!!
i’m guessing it’s already been taped.
no, it was being taped and run like 3 days apart! when he went on “vacation” he said they were 3 weeks out!
it’s all over the net, he stopped 8 min. into an interbiew, he’s saying it portrayed him poorly and the whole “vacation” thing was blown up! I’d love it if he kicked the crap out of GSP and layed the belts down and said FU dana!
I would assume that there is enough money and Spike’s, not to mention Zuffa’s lawyers, that BJ has a change of heart and finishes the taping.
If not he is in for a pissing contest that he is not going to win.
well the 2nd show is on tonight, so thats finalized. i read the story, so i’m not debating that bj left during the middle of an interview and is pi$$ed about the way he is being portrayed (his own fault imo). there is only 1 30 min show left so i’m guessing they will have plenty of footage to finish the show and will include bj walking out of the interview. who knows, this could all be a ploy by bj to garner more attention. like they say “the show must go on”.
I knew Fedor back in Russia as a kid. When we all used to piss our names into snow, he was pissing his name into concrete!
lmao
To distance myself from the debate of “whose blog was better?”, I just watched the Baddest Man on the Planet…and it made the production value of UFC Primetime show look like a bad episode of Peewee’s Playhouse.
War Fedor
INTOVERT. i’m guessing you didn’t even watch it.Baddest man on the planet wasn’t a BLOG slappy, it was a documentery. it was very good, but it pales it comparison to the gsp/bj ufc primetime docu. keep trying though, one of these days you might come up something intelligent to say.
Hey, smart guy….read my comment where it says “to distance myself from the debate of ‘whose blog is better’”. In the english language “to distance” would mean – (To leave far behind), which in this case I stated that I was leaving the “blog” conversation “far behind” (distancing)…which, obviously means that I talking about the documentaries instead of the blogs.
Learn the english language…then, after you have mastered it…come back and insult my “intelligence”….slappy.
BTW, the UFC Primetime show sucked donkey balls compared to the Fedor show…..not even close….slappy.
INTROTARD. if you really wanted to distance yourself from that debate, you wouldn’t have brought it up at all. thats what people do when they want to “distance themselves”. i’m still betting you didn’t even see the show. and you used my own reference “slappy”. ha! very original.
JV has Brendan and Tyler, Bdub has introvert and somehow I ended up with all those muthaf*ckas.
“INTROTARD.”….and the intelligence goes on and on and on…….
Insults are what ignorant people spew angrilly out of their mouths when they are too stupid to discuss subjects with any intellect.
For the second (third, if you include my initial comment) time….I didn’t bring up a discussion about the “blogs”….you did, in all of your wisdom.
introvert, how come all of your posts are really annoying?
Ufc primetime was way better, get over your man crush with tito, fedor and affliction.
Man tito has a huge head.
Tito’s head is so big when he goes to the beach I bet no one else gets any sun.
Arlovski by vicious knockout.
“With your kick ass sweater and my giant head there is nothing we can’t accomplish…
WONDER TWIN POWERS ACTIVATE!”
LMAO. Sh!t. that was tight…
It’s amazing how many dumb motherfuckers there are that don’t realize Tito vs. Fedor is the biggest fight that can be made not Lesnar’s dumbass vs. Mir for christ sake.
Truth
UFC’s dead–well not yet..but stations is definitely going bankrupt!!! AFFLICTION RULES!!!
I’m just amazed how big Tito is. It’s either that or Fedor isn’t as big as I thought he was.
