Hendo would have never signed a contract to fight 2008 Fedor.

No, he didn't look good against Rizzo, and you're an idiot, TS.
You're time to troll on this subject was about 2 years ago. That window has closed.

Fedor 2010-after version wouldn't beat any top 10 HW and LHW. This is sad, but true. At this point he was just a top 20 fighter, with good stand up and nothing else. I was one of the biggest Fedor fan, followed all his career, but he retired a bit too late.

I don't think its unrealistic to think that Fedor could return to the level we saw vs Sylvia and AA should he return to MMA, what we'll probabley never see again even if he returns is the Pride Fedor that could toss large opponants around on the ground.

I still think the time around the Sylvia fight really was the beginning of the end.

Unless your name is Zulu lol...Yeah but I agree with you, him and Randy(inmy opinion) had the best gameplans...

Watch his last 3 fights and compare them to so called "fast LHWs" like Rashad, he's exponentially more explosive and accurate.
