just for the record, im not a brock hater... im just throwin this out there so people dont use fedors comments as some sort of anchor to support brock.
I'll agree Fedor is usually pretty respectful to other fighters, but Fedor's not fighitng Brock, nor is there much chance of him fighting him. Fedor usually comments on fighters he's either fighting, or guys he respects.

True, hes not the most materialistic guy to be sure. But hes not stupid - he knows he cant fight forever and if theres a big payday lurking out there, Im sure he'd like to capitalize on it. Hes only human. Well, ok...scratch that last part.

fedor by sub

B.S

I was supporting Brock as a threat in MMA when i saw his performance and wrestling credentials, but Fedor has two many answers for anything brock can throw at him, IF brock can hold him down at all points in a match he could beat anyone, but i think when he starts getting at the Nogs and Fedors we'll see how much he can apply that one dimensional way of winning with the threat they bring.

Even judging Brock and Fedor on he one guy they have in common Herring, Fedor stopped him in Rd2, Brock had to go all the way.

This would be a tough fight and he knows it. What will happen? Fedor will come out swinging and Broc will go for a takedown and it possibly could become a grappling match that no one would ever expect. If Broc can take a little punishment to get the TD then he might have a chance.

Fedor thinking fighting a guy with only 3 career fights is a good idea. Typical. I respect the guy and do agree he is the best HW in the world, but seriously.

Brock is a BIG heavyweight. Give him about two years of hard training and I think he can give Fedor a run for his money. He has the size and strength to take him down and hold him down.

Just think two years from now, Brock's boxing has gotten better, throws leg kicks and knows how to defend submissions. Fedor will have a tough time working with his size and strength, but I still think Fedor will be smart enough to beat Brock by decision.
