I agree with you though, if only both sides could work together!
UFC is hoping for Affliction to fail in 2009, making one less organization for Fedor to fight with. They are also trying to create a rift between fedor and his management, because they feel that Fedor cares more about fighting tough opponents than details in a contract. Who knows what the truth is.

They're also probably hoping that AA beats him, so they can throw a bunch of money at AA to bring him back and either (a) not have to hear that Fedor is unbeatable anymore; or (b) lure him to the UFC for a rematch with AA.
