Sounds distinctly like promoting your own doesn't it? Fedor won't get the same criticism as Dana would though. Too bad Affliction doesn't really have the best HW fighters in the world. Sure they have a few of them, but the majority are fighting elsewhere.

What other org has better HWs than Affliction?

Ok lets break it down.

Affliction: Fedor (#1) Arlovski (#2) Barnett (#3) Sylvia (#8) Rothwell (#9)

Dream: Crocop, Kharitonov, Overeem (#10)

UFC: Mir (#4), Lesnar (#6), Randy (#7), Nogueira (#5).

With up and comers and cans aside Afflictions offers the compteition. Should be be in the UFC? Were could he possibly go to compete against the best? Seeing how Randy/Nog are now too old and Mir/Lesnar are still too inexperienced (compared to Afflictions roster) i really dont understand what your saying.

Once again Fedor is pure class and 100% correct with his comments.

You should press the post button a few more times, obviously you were so excited about your smart ass stupid response you couldn't resist.

Fact is, Silva would get owned, if Dan Henderson could easily take Silva down at 185/205 weight range, Fedor would have Anderson down in no time himself at 230lbs, no matter how fat Anderson came in...his only hope would be his dangerous guard...but I don't think Fedor has ever been submitted, if Nog couldn't do it 3 times...Silva certainly has no hope.

Lastly, Fedor, always the humble silent confident professional. Dana, show him the money, he will come fight.

I'd love to see Mr Anderson vs Fedor @ 205 or some catch weight above that. It would really be an awesome fight, probably the best ever. Silva will still have a few fights in him after his UFC contract runs out, we can hope.

[Yurii]

He's definitely right about dana. He would try to sell him as the best ever if he were in the UFC.

Fedor wiould have problems with Silva, but he just finds ways to win......

Yeah half true. If Dana said it he would have said the UFC's have the best HW's in the world and Affliction just has shit fighters that couldn't fucking make it in the fucking UFC. See the thing with Dana is that anytime he talks about anything outside an orginization or fighter that he doesn't own or is not about to own anytime soon, he always has to put them down and discredit them until he gets them into their org. Where Fedor obviously knows that statement isn't true and that he is just hyping the org but he didn't put down the UFC in a unclassy way.

like no shit. It's business
