I hope Fedor get's knocked the **** out. I wanted to see him sign with UFC and fight Brock Lesnar.
If Rogers win Dana will be calling him on the phone tonight. While Fedor falls into obscurity.
^^ I agree Rogers will be king Shnaz if he beats Fedor but obscurity is a little strong of a word. What is Fedor's record again??? 32-0 or something? No fighter is immortal and it's only a matter of time before age/lucky shot catch up with them.
I watched the stuff they had going on starz or something last night... Just both fighters prepping for the show, etc and watching Fedor in his own atmosphere made me like the guy even more.

Rogers definitely has a puncher's chance, but I think that's about it. I SEA Fedor taking it to the ground, pressing Rogers against the cage and well...you get the point. TKO or sub.

Well Fedor won't disappear off the face of the planet. However if he loses in his first main stream fight then it will seriously damage his career. This is the big show for Fedor. This is his first introduction to casual MMA fans. I can't see Strikeforce using him as a headliner again if he gets knocked the **** out tonight.
If that does happen Dana will probably send a big **** you to him and try to sign Rogers. It will all be over for Fedor.

I'm not really an expert on Rogers. However I know he has some serious power. The last fight with Arvloski shows that you can rock Fedor. So Rogers has a nice shot at pulling off the upset. Going to be a great fight.

I sea where you are coming from now. Rogers is a good fighter, I just don't think he is on par with Fedor imo. I, too, wished that Fedor's management would have struck a deal with Dana and brought Fedor in to slay Brock.

Something that amazes me about Fedor is even when he is rocked, he is still using his head in defense.

I agree Fedor is one of the best fighters in the world. I'm just still kind of butt hurt over him not signing with the UFC. So it will be nice to see him lose while the UFC goes on to sign Rogers.
Rogers vs. Lesnar would be a good fight. The heavyweight division in the UFC is finally packed with some serious talent. After all those years it's finally back

I agree, it's shaping up nicely.
^ Watch from :58. This is what I was getting at. That was a huge shot he took right on the button and when most people would have fallen, and been finished by GnP... He SOMEHOW manages to stay on his feet and get into a grapple so he doesn't take any more huge shots.
From watching the two of them... Rogers has some serious power but he throws alot of haymakers. Swinging for the fences all day, where as Fedor hardly misses a blow.
I suppose, I'm hoping to see Fedor run through Rogers quick, and then take a deal with the UFC and head in for a Brock V Fedor

I know alot of people who watch hockey but I've never watched a single game on the tv...
I've been to a Dallas Stars game though!
Yeah well, being Canadian most guys are born with a hockey stick. Just something we all grow up playing & watching.
I have a nice 56" HD LCD to catch games on so if I am not home then I like to be somewhere with a screen.
Tix here are insanely expensive so getting to the Arena is not always easy especially with Detroit in town.
Only team that is harder to get tickets for is Montreal and Pittsburgh is up there as well now with the young guys they have on their team. Ottawa used to be a tough ticket but now guys around here are almost giving away tickets to those games.

I've seen every Fedor fight. The guy is an absolute beast. He has taken some of the hardest shots from huge heavyweights and still regained himself to finish off his opponent.
If i was placing money on the fight I would definitely bet on him. If it actually played out Fedor winning and signing with the UFC I would be all for it.
However I just don't see Fedor and Dana coming to an agreement. They have been negotiating and talking **** for so long I think the chances of a deal is remote.
So instead I kind of want Rogers to win to stick it to Fedor haha.

You may know better than me....
Does Houston, Texas have a team?

Haha, I wish I had been into MMA during the brunt of Fedor's career I've just been studying/playing catch up with replays, and highlight reels. Regardless of the winner, I just want to see a damn good fight.
