Fedor In Negotiations with The UFC

[xMisterxMikeX]

Why would UFC pay this irrelevant guy who is more than 6 years past his prime anything? He should have to go through TUF and do 4 fights on FightPass prelims for 12k show/win to prove he's serious.

As far as him fighting Maldonado, I don't see why people are mad because those two are pretty much on the same level so it makes sense.

This is such a crock of shit. It's not the first time I've heard the "Fedor should have to go through TUF" argument. Wow...really? Ok I get it. He's out of his prime, his come back was against a no name. But really, one of the GOATs and Legends of the sport should have to go through TUF? Stop it.

And sure, at this point he shouldn't command a ridiculous pay day...but 12 k show and win? Again, Stop it.

MAn, you're not supposed to take those argument seriously.

 

[SuperLuigi]

He is probably trying to get fans to clamor for it to use as a negotiation tool. Knowing Fedor he probably wants a contract stipulation where he can compete in Sambo the week of the fight or some shit like that.

Sure ya do Fedor

would love to see him on ufc 200

Same here. Seems a lot of people here have no respect for Fedor.

My friends introduced me to Fedors' highlight reels and ever since I have not seen a fighter dominate like him.

We'll see though. Fedor fights June 17 and UFC 200 is July 9, so there's a possibility he signs with UFC and gets on 200.

It would be nice to see him win in dominant fashion against a top 10 UFC Heavyweight!

Like I say above; Fedor doesn't get the respect he deserves.

I'd watch the fuck out of Fedor in the UFC. And all you commies who say you wouldn't are just lying to yourselves.

 

[Pelosi2020]

I would like to see it, even if it wasn't a title fight.

The UFC HW division has been pretty boring lately.

Werdum wrecking Fedor would be real entertaining. Fedor Arlovski-ing Werdum would be a good watch too. Either way, it would be a win for the fans.

Or we can look forward to Travis Brown against some jobber, yeah...

Idiot....you are a pure moron

 

[Baba Ghanoush]

Trying to get his name out there for his fight against Maldonado lol. He wants nothing to do with the UFC. Damn near every single one of his peers were able to get a deal done, except Fedor.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Sorry just don't believe it anymore. I feel like we been down the same round with Fedor for the last 10 years now.

 

[Kinger85]

less than 1% chance he ever fights in the UFC.

I dont see anybody that said they dont want to see Fedor fight.
All I see is people like my self that do not believe Fedor when he claims he wants to fight the best and is talking with the UFC about a potential fight. Well he might "want" to, but he is not going to.

To me it feel like a PR stunt to get people to talk about him and his upcoming fight.

 

[noizer]

bullshit.

thats all i have to say.

 

[Juventud]

Fedor does this every time he has a fight coming up.

Plays coy/flirts with the idea of signing with the UFC so people will be interested in him fighting Maldonado.

This.

 

[Tooth and Nail]

This is so frustrating.

The UFC would give Fedor whatever fight he wanted as long as he's willing to sign the contract.

You gotta think at this stage of his career, he could make more money WITH the UFC than he could outside of the UFC.

 

[The_Renaissance]

No he isn't and he never will be, fuck off with this nonsense.

With out a doubt.

At this point I also really don't see what would stop him outside of him just not wanting to. But he sure likes to talk about the UFC HW's.

I'll say if he doesn't come to the UFC after his next fight it isn't ever going to happen and he should just stop talking about any HW's in the UFC.

I dont know it it was you or another poster that compared Fedor to Cyborg.
Talking about fighting the UFC champ but doing nothing to make it happen and doing it to get some PR /hype for their own fight.

People claim Fedor gets paid a lot because he is good marketing and have a lot of followers.
Why do he need to bring up Werdum and UFC again and again?
To be honest I dont think people are that interested in current Fedors fights.

Sure it would be cool see him in the UFC.. But would he be worth the millions people claim he gets /fight?
I know I know... HW GOAT 10 years winning streak... But based on his 5 (lest include Fabio here) last fights..
He wont be that easy to sell to the casuals.
