Influenza kills about 250,000 to 500,000 people worldwide. So, hep b and the flu account for about 75-80% of all the worlds deaths each year? That leaves me in the clear with the smoking. Those truth.com guys dont know shit. ANyway, I am not sure where the stats come from, but its not that crazy.

Wait are you honestly going to try and say their are only 2.5 million deaths a year? Seriously you need to recheck your numbers if you believe that. Try a bit closer to 57 million per year. The 1 million a year number for HBV was pretty close to correct and all your numbers are way way off.

How severely does Hepatitis B affect the world?
One third of the world's total population (2 billion) has been infected with hepatitis B virus. Most people develop natural immunity to HBV after acute (initial) infection.
There are approximately 350 million people with chronic (lifelong) HBV infection. About 78% (275 million) of chronically infected individuals reside in Asia or the Pacific Islands. In contrast, globally there are 170 million people with chronic hepatitis C and 40 million people with HIV/AIDS.
In many Asian countries, 10% (5-20%) of the population are chronically infected with HBV.
About 1 million people die each year (the equivalent of 2,800 deaths per day, 115 deaths per hour, or 1-2 deaths per minute) from liver cancer or liver failure caused by HBV.
An estimated 550,000 people each year die of liver cancer; 360,000 of these deaths are in East Asian countries alone (China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea).
Without appropriate monitoring or treatment, 1 in 4 of those chronically infected will die from liver cancer or liver failure.
Every 30-45 seconds, one person dies from this vaccine-preventable disease.

Fedor knows the secret.
Fedor even must have told him he should have stopped fighting.
Alex, probably went mad and said "No way, why do you have to be the p4p fighter in the world and I should stop fighting?!"
So they split.
Fedor condenes Alex fighting, but doesnt do go vocally about it.
Now its explained.
So much for bear hunting with knifes. If he does have hep C fighters wont fight him.

He can still fight internationally though, he's such an intimidating figure, it's a shame.

not that people were just lining up to fight him, but now less people would want to fight him.

As much as I love to watch aleks he never would be able to follow up his brother. And I'm sure he is quite the ladies man and pounded some pleny russian box which would be my guess for how he got it. Every time I find pics of aleks he has some hot sluts hangin off his sweet mafia jacket and mullet. But if its true it still blows.
