Fedor resigns with Strikefoce
Fedor resigns with Strikeforce
Fedor Emelianenko has resigned a multi-fight with Strikeforce, the promotion announced Monday. Strikeforce ceo Scott Coker told Sherdog.com “ I plan to match the stoic Russian against the likes of Brett Rogers, Fabricio Werdum and the promotion’s heavyweight champion, Alistair Overeem.”
Dana White does not agree this is a good idea, quite the contrary. "Fedor is a f---ing joke," UFC President Dana White responded Monday after learning that Emelianenko had signed with Strikeforce. “He turns down a huge deal and the opportunity to face the best in the world to fight nobodies for no money!"
White also addressed fans: "I feel sorry for the real fight fans. I wanted to make the deal, but it takes two and it is very obvious Fedor doesn't want to fight the best, and doesn't give a sh-t about the fans!"
I think Fedor is getting terrible advise from M-1, his promotion company and I don’t think he is smart enough to realize that he is screwing things up. No one watches Strikeforce fights and no one knows anything about their “great” heavyweights. Fedor is going to wind up making White permanently mad and creating an enemy that won’t forget how he is trashing his opportunity for real fame and fortune. White has a long hard memory when someone screws him, or he even think someone is screwing him, just ask Tito Ortiz. Fedor is putting himself in a deep hole he won’t be able to crawl out for a long time.
Click to see some of my great articles on Fedor, Fedor has not signed with UFC, and be sure to leave your clever comments about how because I can’t personally beat Fedor up, I do not have the right to make any comments about his supposed invincible fighting ability in the UFC. I realize that all of you commenter’s can and already have beaten Fedor up, or other heavyweights of his quality, and that gives you the exclusive right to comment on who cannot beat him and to trash anyone who disagrees with your expert opinions. However I ask you to just wait a little bit and if he ever does get the brains and courage to actually fight in the UFC, let’s see what happens when Brock brings the thunder hammers down on him.

Dana White is walking a fine line. Talking too much trash about the Russians isn't gona be good for him. You'll see...
Dana have managed this in a professional manner. He planted expectations in the brains of the fans, which expected a deal. Now he is rightfully able to put the blame entirely on Finkelstein and Fedor. I would listen to Alex Emelianenko there. However, Dana White is better off keeping a low profile for some time, just in case.
One of the reasons Fedor didn't sign is because Dana is such a prick. He's insulted Fedor many times in the past and Russians aren't like americans, they don't forget that kind of stuff.
Dana is a disgrace for a president
HAHAHHA THUNDER HAMMERS UR A JOKE!!!..HAHHAHA FEDOR PFP BEST MMA FIGHTER
Really, really bad advice for Fedor IF he is driven by money. If he wants to stay 'unbeaten' (a no call for me on a medical dq) he is wise to stay away from Lesnar and the up and comers like Cain Velequez and Shane Carwin. Give them another year of fights and they could make it interesting.
And in Strikeforce, neither Overam or Werdum can stay with him - but look out for Brett Rogers.
Fedor is absolutely afraid of the superstacked UFC heavyweight division with fighters such as:
Brock "the legend" Lesnar - undefeated, highly skilled
Frank "iron jaw" Mir - undefeated, number 2 p4p behind Brock
Cheick "wizard on the ground" Kongo - not one-dimensional AT ALL - how could a one-dimensional loser survive in the deepest UFC heavyweight division anyways?
Sean "the legend" CarWHO - He has been around forever and has fought the whoswho, WHO?
Kane "the famous" VelasqWHO - Best fighter ever, vicious finisher, beat the whoswho, who exactly?!?
Kimbo "the best" Slice - before he signed with the UFC he was a nobody, now with his signature he instantly became the best fighter in the world! You see, the UFC ink on that contract will immediately turn you into a better fighter! Ask Dana White!
Dana logic: Mir can't be a bad fighter if he continues to fight strong competition in Brock who can't be a bad fighter because he continues to fight strong competition in Mir who...
NEVER COMPARE THE UFC with the NFL!
1. The NBA, NFL, MLB, etc. are not OWNED by ONE SINGLE person or entity!
2. They have player associations and different teams. If you are any good and one team doesn't want to pay or respect you, another team eventually will! At least most of the time!
3. You have your rights and your games are scheduled. If you fight well, you will play in the finals!
4. The players play to win! They win for themselves, their team mates, their coaches, their fans, their hometown!
Compare that to the UFC:
1. The UFC is owned by Fertitta and run by Dana only!
2. You can be as good as you are (Jon Fitch, Randy Couture, etc.) If you don't get along with Dana, you have nowhere else to go!
3. If Dana doesn't like you, you can win 20 fights in a row and will never get a title shot! If he does like you - see Lesnar - you will instantly get a title shot with a losing record!
4. Wanderlei Silva, Dana White, others said: "Win or lose, doesn't matter,
"Win or lose, doesn't matter, I fight for the entertainment, to make a good show!"
Can you possibly imagine Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Michael Jordan after a lost game saying that? Tom Brady: "Yeah, I threw five interceptions, but I don't care, it was a great show wasn't it?"
The UFC is much more like pro/fake wrestling WWE and not anywhere close to the NFL, NBA, MLB,
NEVER EVER COMPARE THOSE HONORABLE ORGANIZATIONS WITH THE UFC AGAIN!
dana white is greedy and fedor knows it, the ufc will wind up crumbeling to other organizations because dana white dosnt respect the sport and he cant put real fights togather
