Do u honestly think that prime Fedor could beat prime JDS?

[Cracked_Rib]

Many guys here thought that prime Ronda cozld give Cain trouble, so obviously you'll find people that will believe anything when they hear it from a "source".

JDS was an absolute destroying machine and looked unstoppable until the incredible Cain! I doubt very much that Fedor would’ve been able to stop prime JDS and the reason why is JDS is extremely hard to take down and control and he stings u from every direction especially his uppercut. What do u think?

If JDS was that good, than how come Cain beat him so easily (without even taking damage in like 9 rounds)?

To answer your question - anything that Cain could do, Fedor also would be able to (probably even better).

 

[po_thead]

I do, yes

 

[DM1982]

Prime Fedor beats any MMA fighter ever

Jesus!

Even your beloved Silva?

 

[countswagula]

I'd give JDS a good shot, Fedor would probably be a slight favourite though

 

[chinarice]

Fedor is still the HW GOAT to me but posters here are pretty silly when it comes to Fedor, acting like he was unbeatable in his prime when he almost got KTFO'ed by Fujita of all people.

To act like prime JDS had no chance against Fedor is just straight delusional. JDS had huge power in his hands and had better standup than most of the guys Fedor beat.

You're litterally opposing to the opposite of what TS said. It's quite funny.

 

[RemyR]

I think he could and it wouldn’t be pretty due to JDS’s heart

 

[robbie]

Do you mean the shot that put him out? Or were there illegal shots after the first one that dropped him cold?

The shot that dropped Fedor and put him out was an upper cut through the armpit area from Hendo's top control position after a reversal. The two or three extra hits prior to the referee stoppage were not illegal IMO. One of the extra strikes was close, but people are moving and Hendo adjusted and was hitting the ear area once he got his bearings.

Honestly i say it doesnt matter. Once someone is faceplanted its over. You cant go and claim illegal strike if you are kissing canvas.

he didnt have a lot of MMA mileage

Emelianenko had been fighting for 9 years and had 33 fights by the time he lost, and he also had a concurrent Sambo career, so he was burning the candle at both ends.

Sherdog never disappoints to lower the bar further in critical thinking.

It's like no one commented on this thread saying what I am talking about...... Did I quote the TS? I sure didn't.

I am laughing my ass off right now.

 

[DarkRaven]

I hate MMA Math but everything you said was true. Prime Mirko had otherworldly TDD.

Obviously. I have no reason to think JDS had better TDD than Crocop. Fedor made it look easy taking Crocop down.
I think Fedor had a lot better showing against prime Crocop than prime JDS did against washed up Crocop.

So your idea is that Mirko with 3 years of practice had otherworldly TDD when he faced Fedor. Prime CroCop was not a MMA fighter, he was a kickboxer in MMA.

Even sandminer Francis stopped every TD from Cain and Blaydes, and even Stipes first until Stipe rocked him. Like Khabib said, you have to think about my boxing, my legs and then i take you down.

Loved JDS, but yes.

He was 3:25 min average in ring if we take decisions into account, 2:20 min if we dont count fights that went full distance. Most of that time he spend in GnP position. So tell me did he train double for sambo, or did he like any other athlete spend his whole life in training and just competed at multiple disciplines?
Things that destroy athletes are wars in ring and training. 3min of wrestling doesnt blow your hips, its 8h per day in gym.

33 fights is 33 training camps; the wear and tear from training is implicitly mentioned.

Prime Fedor was in 2003-2007. JDS was just starting MMA at that point, easy win for Fedor.
Prime JDS was in 2010-2012. Fedor was already slowing down, I'd give it to JDS.

They were never in their primes at the same time, so prime-vs-prime could never happen.

I dont belive he had camps. With amount of fights he had, he would be in camp all the time. Sorry but if you are having camp for japanese WWE star, well you are a dumbass.

Where's your evidence?

It seems you already forgot that he had a concurrent Combat Sambo career, so I guess he didn't have training camps for that too, huh?

And please name all the "japanese WWE stars" that he fought, I don't mind waiting <Lmaoo>.

Watch the fights, lol.

Regardless of his MMA experience, his TDD was exceptional. If you're hung up on how he got there, I don't care.
