If this fight happens it's gonna be pure win.

lol yeah Sherdog is nuts. in one thread they will talk about how a wrestler is amazing on how he controlled the fight and won. But then in the next they will btich out Brock for doing the same. with many saying the only reason he wins is because he is so big.

the hate over lesnar is insane. i think he is a dick but the guy is one scary mother ...


it would be a good fight between Fedor and Brock. i still give the edge to fedor just because of his skill/experiance. but yeah i wouldnt be shocked if brock pulls it off.

man i hope they fight heh.

 

[OILFIELDTRASH]

who else is wanting to see the Silva v Griffin fight. Thats gonna kick ass although it ends with Griffin ....zzzzz

 

[torpid]

I would rather Fedor have a warm-up or two against decent UFC HW contenders. It would be anti-climactic to jump right in against Brock.

 

[eits]

fedor woulda won anyways.

i'd like to see a fedor/lesnar fight.

yeah that is going to be a great fight.

i do suspect silva is going to win. but i won't count out Griffin. he has a habit of pulling out wins when he is not expected to

Well, its a matter of time (days probably) until Affliction goes belly-up a la EliteXC and releases the fighters from their contracts. I can only imagine what they're gonna have to offer Fedor to fight in the Octagon.

EDIT: It will probably be a hella boss amount.

 

[randay]

winner of couture/nog vs fedor, then brock.

 

[TCPpacket]

looks like they scrapped the entire event.

It doesn't matter, Barnett or Belfort, Fedor is a league above them and all other MMA heavyweights at this point. Since Belfort is a quick fighter, Fedor might find it interesting to fight him, but that about it. Lesnar should have a chance against Fedor once he develops and becomes more experienced and skilled fighter. As long as he does not rely on his size/weight advantage, its not enough to beat Fedor. Lesnar really needs to keep training and training his fighting skills and leave his muscle pumping gym alone. I would say Dana would keep Lesnar away from Fedor for at least a couple of years or so by offering Fedor absurd contracts, while giving Lesnar time to develop and be ready for Fedor.

I agree. I'm pretty sure there would be at least a few murders and suicides if Lesnar beats Fedor. And I'm on Lesnar's side. I respect Fedor's ability, but I'd love to see the mayhem a Lesnar victory would incite.

That said, I don't know which I enjoyed more: actually watching Dan Henderson and Brock Lesnar dominate in UFC 100, or reading the Sherdog forums for before, during, and after the fight.

If Fedor comes to the UFC, he's not going to immediately fight Brock. Brock's next fight will likely be against the winner of Shane Carwin and Cain Velasquez.

Affliction as a MMA promotion = CANCELLED. AXED. DONE. Back to hawking $30 shirts for the UFC.

*IF* Fedor comes to the UFC, it won't be happening anytime soon. When he finally makes it, I think his first fight would for the title. When Pride died he was the HW champ. Their other champ Hendo got a title shot against Rampage as soon as he came to UFC. There's no other fight in the UFC that would make sense for Fedor. And I think Brock's next match may be against the winner of Nog & Randy.

Good god - no one wants to see Lesnar against a 47yr old Couture or against Nog - whom was absolutely destroyed by Mir - flu symptons excuse or no excuse.

HW division needs to be be split into two weight classes. 206 - 240 and 241 - 280.

I'd like to see Monson against Lesnar.

UFC has Cain & Carwin, both are good but Brock beats both pretty easy I believe. Mir never wants to even be in the same room with Brock again. I think Randy's fans want to see him fight Brock again, because Randy is Captian America. He would lose but Randy is loved by all. UFC has no other HW's really. Kongo would die, and Gonzaga would be put to sleep. Monson will never in the UFC again. So who else is there? If Fedor doesn't sign, it's either the winner or Cain & Carwin or Randy & Nog. Don't think any of the 4 really would give Brock too much trouble. I don't want to see Randy get smashed again because I like the dude.

Um...Hendo got a title shot against Rampage because Hendo was the Pride champ at the time. It was a unification bout. There's no reason not to have the two champs square off.

Fedor going to the UFC is looking more likely now that Affliction is out, unless M1 somehow manages to keep him chained up. Somehow I don't think Fedor cares much for the spotlight and the big bucks which is what draws most of the talent from the other organizations. Otherwise Fedor would have quit the tournaments he competes in for sport

Fedor is pissed.

LOL? He's already knocked out and beaten 4-5-6 former UFC heavyweight champs.

This was supposed to be a huge fight, possibly one of Fedor's toughest challenges to date. Now the fight is off because Barnett has tested positive for steroids (for the 2nd time in his career).

How boss would it be if, to cement his claim as the best fighter in the world, Fedor allowed Barnett to fight him juiced up? My money would still be on Fedor. Too bad there's no chance for that to happen, though.

http://www.miamiherald.com/spo...rts/story/1155042.html

That would be the dumbest thing to ever occur and would go a long way to killing MMA credibility as a real sport.

We need to quit farting around with juicers and start throwing out lifetime bans for anyone in any sport caught using.

Have fun in a world with no sports.

Affliction is done as an MMA org. It even says it right here in the title: Affliction is Done.

Sometimes I think steroids should be allowed in certain sports. Too many people do it in certain sports.
