Agreed. I think we're all getting tired of "Fedor is #1 in the history of MMA", even though, he never seems to fight relevent opponents anymore. I shouldn't be this hard to put good fights together.

Also, Randy's attitude has soured alot of people. He needs to be more active, fight Nog, and continue to prove he's as good as the hype.

I will be interested in the fight when we see both fighters standing toe to toe in a stare down. But I will not eat up the hype that is trying to be created. I would rather see 10 fights rather than this one.
Ouch, that second line is classic, so what are your 10 fights?

Its the Sherdog sway. The "what have you done for me lately" crowd
u shouldn't talk for ppl, i am still a hug hendo fan and i personally think randy is fake and shouldn't fight fedor

now who's delusional?

let's examine this fight realistically. two fighters who haven't fought serious competition in over a year are going to fight just for the heck of it. by the time they fight, their rankings and momentum that at first made the fight so dynamic is going to be gone completely.

the potential for Fedor to blow up in the American MMA scene by beating Randy in the biggest US mma stage is gone.

lastly, with all the drama that went back and forth between Fedor, Randy, and the UFC over the fight has sorta sullied it for me.

Randy is not worth ofo facing Fedor. He's not even Top-5.

If he fights and beats nog, then he can face Fedor.
