Fedor vs Rogers 5 reasons Fedor will lose (photo courtesy CBS)

 The biggest non UFC fight is tonight, with E. Fedor vs B. Rogers and here are   5 reasons Fedor will lose.

1. Fedor is not in shape. He is not in condition to go 5 rounds, which we do not think will happen, but if the fight  does go 5 rounds it will not be pretty. Neither of these fighters is in good enough shape to go the distance and Fedor certainly won't be able to fight hard for 5 rounds. Therefore, if the fight gets into the longer rounds, Fedor will fade and Rogers will pick it up an finish the fight.

2. Fedor can not stand an bang with Rogers. Rogers has a much better stand up game and Fedor knows this. He only chance to take control and win is to take the fight to the ground. If he stands and bangs with Rogers, he will definitely get knocked out.

3. Fedor is too slow. Despite what Fedor lovers might think, their guy is getting old and is slowing down. He will not be faster than Rogers, which means he will not get off first and when your punches are landing second you are in for trouble.

4. Fedor gets paid the same win or lose. Yes, he will make a lot of money and get a lot more hype, but then what? He is Not going to the UFC, his managers simply are too greedy to allow that, and that means he is staying at Strikeforce and will not be fighting anyone near the quality of the top UFC heavyweights. Win or lose, he will still have the same poor fighters to face at the same poor company, Strikeforce.

5. Fedor is not that good. We personally don't know why he is considered the best heavyweight in the World, when he has never fought the rest of the best heavyweights in the World, because they are all in the UFC. Dana White is right, he is overrated.

These are my thoughts. I could be wrong, but I am right 96% of the time. If you feel compelled to leave a comment, keep it clean.
