FEDOR says he has NO DEAL in place with PRIDE

CBS is reporting that Fedor has contradicted Dana White and has confirmed that he has no deal in place with PRIDE

Dana should check his facts before blasting off, silly boy

Wow, so much for fighting the best. This pretty much sucks, Fedor vs Lindland isn't exactly the "superbowl" of MMA. Oh well some Fedor is better than none.

I bet Fedor will get as much money he's looking for from any company he signs with, PLUS be free to fight for whomever he likes (Heros, PRIDE, UFC, Bodog). He has the clout and the power in the industry to do whatever he likes.

i've watched bodog fights, they put on shitty shows, have bad annoucers, and no competition for fedor. I guess he just really feels like chillin' in russia.

He says;

"Yes, we have agreement with Pride, but I and (agent) Vadim Finkelshtain have not come to terms with them," Emelianenko said.

So, you've made a somewhat misleading headline.

From what that article is saying, Fedor has a deal but it's not finalized, and Bodog is trying for a long term contract.

I hope Fedor sticks with PRIDE, or goes to the UFC.

i'm with you on this.. i was also praying that pride wasn't going to be bought by zuffa... having fedor in pride.. even if it is zuffa owned... still makes me feel like it is still "kind of" the old pride.. just hanging on..... im sure you feel the same way dude....

i agree. i mean the fights werrent bad but the fighters them selves are just a level below pride and ufc guys. like the ifl you see a lot more mistakes and ameture moves in these orgs. i mean no disrespect its just how i see it and they will spend top dollar to take away big guys from pride ufc so people will watch thier show but all that really dose is take away from mma it self
