Has Fedor ever said anything bad about anyone? You could ask Fedor how he feels about Satan and he'd say something akin to, "I think he's misunderstood. He's a good competitor"

No shit. I do love how the UFC fans jump all over this...it wasn't that long ago Fedor was saying much the same about HMC, and they consider him a can. Funny how that works.

C'mon guys we all know size and strength wins fights. Big, strong wrestlers will always beat smaller opponents with more experience and technique. Didn't anyone see that last TUF final? That Ultimate fighter guy Tommy Speer vs Mac Danzig? Oh. Wait. I just checked the fight finder....... Really I see that fight going something like that fight. Not that Tommy Speer is a Brock Lesnar but Fedor ain't no Mac Danzig either. I see this being a HW version of that fight at this point in time. Or it could be like another Fedor/Randleman but I doubt it. Either way, it'd be a huge payday for both guys.

All too true. Though I think he did express some slight displeasure with Dana's comportment during their negotiations.

Agreed.

People are comparing Hong Man Choi, a 7 foot 2 kick boxer who is about as coordinated as Shawn Bradley. And Zulu a fat ass who clearly doesn't have the strength, speed, or wrestling ability that Brock has.

I would bet on Fedor, but it seems crazy how some people are irrational when defending Fedor. I mean Babalu, Big Nog twice, and Crocop went to decisions against him.

It's not even close to happening and every Fedor nut hugger is counting the man out. Fuck that everyone has a chance period no matter how unstoppable one man looks to be. Chuck looked unbeatabe at one point and now look so seriously grow up with this nuh huh Attitude.

It would be awesome if somehow Brock was the opponent for Fedors NYE fight.

and how many does Heath Herring have? Dont think you can ever write off a fighter like Lesnar, he is very explosive and massively strong, I recon he could easily land a surprise big right on Fedor and turn the fight around.

No one here can say "Brock will lose", in a fight, anything can happen, and Brocks rate iof improvement mean he's a dangerous opponent for any fighter.

Be a good battle, and maybe surprise people even more that Lesnar/Herring did.

I disagree. Submission is how I see Fedor beating Brock, even if he's on the bottom. If Brock gets another 2-3 fights and another 18 months of training, it could actually be pretty competitive.
