Media DC elaborates on Fedor Comments

[NationWideNinja]

Love Fedor but nothing DC said was wrong. Fedor has been washed since his loss to Werdum in 2010.

After that loss he gets dominated by Bigfoot, KO’d by Hendo.
Then has a retirement-tour in M1 beating guys like Rizzo and Monson.
Comes back in 2015 to beat some kickboxer and then gets absolutely destroyed in the first round against freaking Fabio Maldonado!
KO’d by Mitrione.
Then beats washed Mir and washed and undersizes Sonnen.
KO’d by Bader
Then beats Fat Rampage and now Timothy Johnson.

Prime Fedor was over after the Brett Rogers KO. Should have retired there.

Just imagine if sherdoggers had to share their own opinion on camera then have to deal with criticism. Wouldn't that be a sight? If they did, it would be like watching dogs eating their own vomit., or a dog humping a tree, or sniffing another dogs ass. Share doggers.

Yet try saying fedor was near / in his prime when he lost 3 straight……..

Fedor was exiting his prime when he was leaving Affliction and transitioning to Strikeforce. I don't think that's really all that arguable. Maybe it was even earlier.

His decline started in 2009. His coach wasn't happy with Arlovski win at all.

Only fighter in the history of MMA who showed significant decline while winning in front of our eyes.

Well there's Jon Jones, but that might have been USADA.

 

[ultramanhyata]

Maybe you missed the fact that he was discussing two different time frames and one guy being average after his prime wouldn't necessarily invalidate his apex.

So I guess you'd rather go with GOHTF - Greatest Of His Time Frame.

That's fair. I wouldn't disagree.

 

[Relentless chase]

-DC does some Fedor ass kissing
-Says during that time in Fedor was slowing down
- Doubles down and says Cain, JDS, Shane, and Brock would give Fedor some trouble
- He knows y’all called him “Black Fedor”
-Says he almost got to fight Fedor but got beat
-Says he isn’t disrespecting all the great thing Fedor in his prime
-Says it’s wrong to judge fighters outside their prime; bring up Anderson Silva
-Impressed by Fedor’s longevity
-Says he met Fedor he’s a nice guy
-More Fedor ass kissing

Spoiler: MY PERSONAL THOUGHTS ON FEDOR

View attachment 886805

TS, how is Fedor a Can Crusher when he literally beat Former UFC Champions during his Prime?

He also beat a Prime Cro Cop at his own game.

DC lost to Jones & Stipe twice, he's irrelevant when it comes to GOAT talks btw, just get gotta throw that in there. He's a paper champion, Fedor was a real Champion.

 

[JustOnce]

That's fair. I wouldn't disagree.

There's a big difference between saying Fedor was declining and saying Fedor was average at BEST, which implies he wasn't even an average HW and would lose to Kongo in 2009.

That shit is ridiculous. People forget but Arlovski and Tim were Top 5 Heavyweights when they fought and no one really thought Tim would get zulued like that outside that legendary Sherdog poster.

Cormier the UFC Goat shill is in full damage control mode. Sad to see a likable fighter turning shill like this.

 

[Prex32]

Here's DC admitting that Fedor was the Heavyweight GOAT three years ago.

https://mmaimports.com/2018/10/d-c-admits-fedor-emelianenko-is-the-heavyweight-goat/

But oh my God, he said that Fedor may have been slowing down after ten years at the top. Holy shit. How dare he!?

Maybe the word "average" may have been a bit much, but the guy was called a shill and shit on endlessly over the last few days over one take. Suredawggers know better though, right? Lol

it was poor timing. why does he have to bringt it up before a fedor fight? coincidence? i dont think so.
i like dc, but he shouldn't talk only to please someone else. he can have his own voice.

Fedor is the only guy to beat all Top 3 UFC HWs of his time in Mir, Arlovski and Tim.

Fedor also beat two of three Top 3 Pride HWs in their absolute primes.

You could argue that it was a win for Fedor since Josh pissed hot and got kicked out of the fight itself.

Fedor got like 10 times more respect and love that Stipe and Cormier got COMBINED on Sherdog and deservedly so.

Ridiculous to call Fedor average at best, not just average mind you, but average AT BEST, and loses to Kongo in 2009.

No. No one really forgets that.

DC may not use the terminology you like, but it's his opinion. You may disagree. I think it's fair to say Fedor was declining around the time frame DC was discussing. Maybe to him he was average considering DC. I would say he's off by a few years. Still not enough for all this uproar, lol.

 

[JustOnce]

I would have love to see Kongo vs Fedor though.

Kongo nutshots people, intentionally at times, but Fedor never gets nutshoted.

Unstoppable vs immovable right here.

Can Kongo nutshot Fedor who has never been nutshoted in his career?

 

[Motleysubs]

Dc is right. Why is fedor Losing to meat head?

Muhammad Ali lost to Trevor berbick, Ali was a horrible boxer!

Not enough uproar, really.

UFC shilling Cormier comes out firing right after Fedor criticize Dana calling Fedor literally below average in 2009 when Fedor was consensus top pound for pound fighter and undefeated for 9 years?

That's number 1 bullshit, top notch shilling with no shame.

 

[JustOnce]

No one wanted to see Kongo vs Fedor but now I want to see.

Can Kongo nutshot Fedor who has never been?

 

[cshireman4]

I just don't understand what DC was trying to accomplish with his initial comments to begin with. Now the backpedal makes him look even worse. No one gives a fuck about DC's opinion concerning hypothetical Fedor matchups in an intentionally narrow set of years that he cherry-picked to create drama. Fedor never seems to feel the need to speak of DC. But I guess that's the dividing line between being the GOAT and Jon Jones' bitch...

 

[Qays Stetkevich]

take it outt of context? What contextt?

Is that you DC?

You are the GOAT at shilling for UFC, nice lil damage control you got going on there tho

You sound super smart replying to how something is being taken *out of context* (i.e., leaving out the fact he was referring to 2009-2011 Fedor, and not his whole career or prime, DUH), and then just going "what context!?! Herr derrr" "Dat you DC?" Good one. Very clever.

I mean that comment literally came out after Fedor criticized Dana...

Coincidence? or...

And yeah...if Jones didn't self destruct...no LHW OR HW belt for Cormier....

Thanks it sure is.

I think people forget the greatness of Fedor in 2009.

He was consensus top pound for pound fighter in 09. People forget that.

You don't call that below average and loses to Kongo in 09.
