All signs point to Fedor being unsuccessful in the UFC

[Ghostface Playa]

He's 40. Doesn't use TRT (not that we know of). Didn't fare well in the cage albeit some might say he was a bit past it by then. Different rules and scoring system from PRIDE.

Even if you weren't a fan, it'd be like paying for something you know isnt the best or doesn't have the potential to be the best product.

Do we really wanna see him fight in the UFC at this point?

Despite what Sherdog may lead you to believe, some people enjoy MMA for the MMA.

 

[AceCooch]

Everything you stated is completely obvious to me, but maybe it isn't to others on here.

Fedor will not ever come to UFC though, as I (and many others) have been saying for a long long time

A guy who was on the downhill 6 years ago making a comeback against top competition? No I don't expect him to do well.

 

[The Bard]

He might not win the title, but he'd beat some guys. I'd watch. He looked damned sharp against Monson. While I'm sure he's physically declined, I think a lot of the problems he had in Strikeforce were related to issues other than his age.

 

[WalterSobchak]

He will never fight in the UFC.

Sometimes I live in the town
Sometimes I get a great notion, to jump in the river and drown

Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing him in the UFC. I mean look at the heavyweight division. He could stir shit up at the very least.

do they enjoy MMA because of competitive fights OR do these people just wanna see legend like Fedor get destroyed to validate their negative opinion of him?

You fit right in here.

Fedor is my all time favorite fighter...I actually just wish he would retire and enjoy retirement.

The Fedor haters for sure just want to see him get beat. It's always been the same way. They will say someone will kill Fedor, Sylvia for example, and when Fedor wins they just make excuses and then say "well, Arlovski will beat Fedor". It was just that pattern over and over again for years until Fedor finally did lose and then these people cheered and mocked. Why do they hate Fedor? Because Dana White told them to.

Now, as far as Fedor in the ufc? If he does come, I hope he fights other older fighters. I'd like to see him rematch Bigfoot and Werdum (and Hendo if possible) and call it day. He is turning 40 in a few months. At least many of the other HWs are older as well. Barnett would be a good fight as well since it was supposed to happen multiple times already. All that said, I want him to fight in Rizin in the Open Weight GP and in Bellator.

Nothing more ridiculous than the excuses these fanbois produce when they're afraid to watch their fav. fighter fight.

I don't give a fuck if Fedor fights or not, I don't care what Sherdoggers think of Fedor, I do know I would rather watch him fight than talk about it.

Hahahahahah sick. I mean, of all the dudes to have that "wtf I made out with a dude!" dream, you got Larry Fucking King!!

That shit's still got me laughin to read actually lol

He became the #1 HW in the world in 2003.
If he fights in the UFC in 2017, that would be 14 years later.

That's the only sign you need to look at.
List me the other Top HW from 2003 and tell me where they are now.
