fedor needs to fights brock 2 c who is best hw fuck the contrats what ever its all about it does not matter 90% of mma fans what 2 c the fedor brock fight. n most would like fedor 2 win. does not look like its happening its sad really.
Fedor isn’t fighting for his fans, Fedor fights because he loves to fight, he has been fighting since he was 5. And its not so simple that they can just line fighters up like that, and its because of 1 fucking asshole who thinks he has the mma market cornered. Its not Finkelstein’s fault, he is about co-promotion and pitting the best against the best. When asshole Dana White uses Fedor’s Red Devil comrades’ contracts as a leveraging tool to get Fedor to sign, that spells money grubbing aholetome
have a good chance if they join and use abc.. not so much showtime though.. they will be able to out leverage dana..
It has nothing to do with money its about fighting the best.. money is just a bonus while doing what you love.. fedor even states he started fight for money he likes fashion and the finer things in life.. i feel like fedor should give his fans the fights they want to see and that makes me closed minded? yeah pancrase was good pride was good now we got dream.. I actually am happy about fedor signing with strikeforce bc they are trying to join with dream.. strikeforce/M-1/dream i feel like they
Some jerkoff even mentioned 50% of the UFC, which isn’t even possible considering how many proportionally own it. And Tito isn’t bound by the same obligations that Fedor is, Tito would stab his associates in the back to make a dollar or increase his popularity. Dana White is trying to leverage the deal with Fedor by not signing his brothers or any of his Red Devil comrades into the UFC, trying to force Fedor to bend. Which is why Fedor made comments about UFC not treating fighters like people.
See, I dont really believe that. From what I understand, m-1 only collects 10% from the co-promotion. There are many rumors floating around, some mention 50% of the earnings but the real number is 10%. And the way I see it, The UFC needs Fedor more than Fedor needs the UFC. For one thing, he still holds the HW Pride belt. For another, his polished record goes back further than any of the UFC champs, and to imply that they are more decorated than him would be a slap in the face.
see you assume that but how would giving him everything he wants besides co-promotion with m-1 bondage..dana can sign tito back and set aside their dif but you can’t have a fedor without a m-1/(other organization) and its sad.. it should be about fighting the best.. but fedors managers kinda own him and do all the talking and its not about fighting to them.. i believe fedor has the heart but his heartless managers are hurting his name..
Ya know, I really hate arguing with people like you. Your so closed-minded, not everyone is a money grubbing animal you know… Fedor dominated pride for nearly 4 years, when it was bigger than the UFC… When most of the UFC champs were still in PRIDE… I guess, all I can say is, that you are a fool for believing what you believe.
and places like Japan, Phillipines, at the moment it doesn’t need the US because the US is a fraction of the market. Dana White is a fool to think that he owns the mma market, hell Pride was more popular than the UFC, now we have orgs financially backed by guys like Donald Trump…With capital like that, Dana White is a carpet bagger. He isn’t going to be winning any bidding wars with someone like that. Right now he has the majority but not for long. Mark my words…
Its not completely about money. UFC basically wants Fedor in bondage. He should be able to assert his rights as an mma fighter. The UFC is practically the only org who gets fighters by the balls when they make agreements. Every other org he has went into has had no problems because of their loose fighter agreements. You hear people disputing contracts in the UFC all the time, but it never happened in PRIDE. And market equalibrium is inevitable. M-1 can market itself over in European countries
your a fool fedor could be the highest paid fightr in history with the UFC but he chooses to protect his record and fight for scraps at strikeforce.. brocks one fight with mir for 3 million is enough to buy out that poor competitioned company..
terrible comment
god damn ufc buys out anyone and anything that has anything to do with mma. dana white has a fuckin strangle hold on the sport, its fucked up. the fighters need to start a union like other sports players have done.
affliction did have sum good fight cards better then what strikeforce is puttin togather
I guess fedors head is made of steel i shurly know that I would have been knocked the fuck out by that knee smash or the randleplex he took like nothing back in pride thats just awesome
Its a shame, i enjoyed those Affliction cards.
I agree. Yea, Fedor said it himself, the UFC doesn’t treat fighters like people. And Dana White basically rules the UFC with an iron fist. Fortella or whatever his name is basically just an overseer. From what I understand, most of the UFC’s capital belongs to him, so I can see the relation.
Affliction just couldn’t survive the initial business cycle. Unlike UFC, Affliction was created with virtually no capital to work with, so every event was crucial to their survival. It was untimely that the Barnett thing came up when it did, if it had happened 3 or 4 events later than it did, they probably would have only taken minor damage. What a waste, Affliction had much better events than the UFC, paid the fighters much better and probably would have negotiated to co-promote with the UFC.
His name is bobby bad ass, Billy is his brother.
Dude Obviously someone has the money to get fedor to fight for them and they are also not the biggest MMA organization in the world like UFC is. So yeah i dont think im a moron man. you might wanna think about shit logically before you go and start trying to offend people.
Is that a fact? huh businnes man? Prove it or shut the fuck.
are u crazy?
every time Fedor is going to fight there could be 100 fighters schedule for that night, but the people just want to see Fedor, and he knows that, and he better get paid what he thinks he should be paid.
(lesnar can keep praying to bud light to rise his bonuses lol)
and Dana can suck my balls, he is making so much money out of this monkeys who don’t read the fine print on their contracts. (he is the albino bold don king)
Fucking Dana White that greedy cunt is acting like a jew. He wants all the cash for himself and screws the fighters. Fedor is probably used to big paychecks in Pride and probably went to Strikeforce just to spite Dana. Poor fans may never see Fedor beat the shit out of Lesnar.
I didn’t ask for your opinion, don’t leave me a comment again
haha. you fight him then billy bad ass
