LOL!... Ain't that the truth...

I could see it now..... Fedor comes on this forum and says something good or positive about Brock, or any other hated fighter, and then we'd have a bunch of armchair quarterbacking sherdoggers telling him that he's a retard and doesn't know shit about fighting......my god, that would be hilarious....

Sometimes I wonder if some of the top pro guys come to this place under an assumed user name, just to see some of the ridiculous shit being discussed about them.

Big guys are almost always universally useless on the ground against good grapplers. The way I see it is if Brock takes it to the ground he'll get subbed pretty quickly. Fedor's groundwork is just too strong.

Now the thing is Fedor's wild striking potentially has flaws which could land him in trouble some day. He leaves himself quite open alot of the times. Hong Man Choi for example really busted Fedor up in the stand up. If Brock places a well timed full power punch like Fujita did, together with his great wrestling he could win.
Yes Brock has reach and power, but hand speed he lacks. I saw enough against Herring to notice that. Brock wont have any time to throw a punch on Fedor, he's just too quick like a mongoose. The only way is if Brock could absorb his punches and hopefully still be coherent. Then throw a punches after Fedor blitzkrieg. But I dont know how tough Brock chin is. He could be in la la la land during that barrage of bombs.

I agree Fedor wild punching is all over the place, but he's actually faster then most fighters that punch straight. Its unsually fast for someone who throws bombs like that. I just dont see Brock winning this fight. Nontheless anyone still has a chance, but its very slim.

As for Fujita, yes he hit Fedor and stunned him well. But Fedor recovery time is unreal. Fujita couldn't finish Fedor in that situation, I doubt Brock could. Fujita is even more well rounded.

This news has me positively aghast! It cuts me to the quick to find that Fyodor Emelianenko Esquire is a trailer-dwelling WWE Noob.

Egad! Next this lower class mongrel will be suggesting that Haystacks Calhoun would make for an unstoppable super heavyweight.

Mister Emelianenko, the WWE forum is that way.

hey, brock needs to be built up but the big test will be to see him against fighters that always improve their position and never stay in the same position, guys like nog, the emilnenko brothers, barnett etc etc... its too bad there are so few great heavyweights that have that skill
