Is the Randy/Fedor fight just assumed to not happen now?

I figure as much. As soon as Randy lost to Brock ALL talk of Randy/Fedor went out the window, seemingly both from Sherdoggers AND Randy and Fedor.

Has anyone heard anything?

Nothing has been said recently. I don't have much interest in that fight now anyway.

I'd rather see him fight Barnett.

I've always assumed it was not going to happen since ... y'know ... they're in different organizations and everything.

When are people going to get it through their heads that the UFC will not cross-promote?

Fedor vs any UFC fighter can be assumed not to happen.

Yeah, but doesn't Randy only have like one more fight on his contract?

I believe Couture signed a new four fight deal before the Lesnar fight. I could be wrong though.

Well if that's the case, then fuck it. I wonder if Fedor is even interested anymore.

Fedor talks a big game about fighting guys from the UFC, but he knows damn well it won't happen.

I don't get why they won't just work with Fedor on the contract. If I remember correctly, the biggest blockade was not wanting to let him continue to compete in Sambo.

What the fuck? SAMBO? Like the World Sambo League (or whothefuckever) is going to rise to prominence and challenge the UFC's place as the #1 fight organization?
