Fedor vs silva

[outbreak92]

Nobody talks about this but how would fedor vs wanderlei do in pride. To me that was the fight to make especially Silva under pride rules. Call me crazy but Silva might have had a chance especially after the 1st rampage fight

Fedor did struggle a bit against guys with speed, and a prime juicy Wand would definitely be on the faster end of Fedor's opponents. However, Fedor is a master tactician, and would find openings in those wild hooks to trip up Wand and take it to the ground. After that it would be worse than Fedor-Nog 1.

I would say Fedor 75% chance of winning

 

[Ibm]

Fedor would defintely win. But Wanderlie is the type of fighter that would through down and go ape shit on anyone and anyone can get TKO'd that way.

How did this Champ vs Champ fight never happen...

Instead we got circus fights like Fedor vs Hong Man Choi

Yeah I see it some what similar but nog never really had any knees in the clinch. He was more like an Oliveira type fighter, there was no danger involved in a way.

 

[Haj01]

As we know all Silva's are related and Bigfoot Silva his father already beat Fedor.

 

[Mike]

Wand was too reckless and would have got caught with something imo.

Silva is nothing like Nogueira. Nogueira wanted to be on the ground, Silva would certainly get up. Silva was able to get back to his feet when fighting Arona.

Giant Silva did ok in pride fc

 

[Thepaintbucket]

I mean Wandy berserking out and catching Fedor is plausible in my book. At the same time there's a high chance Fedor would be able to evade whatever he does and take him down with minimal resistance.

I don't think this was ever directly planned but the two were kind of floating around close to each other in the 2006 OWGP, Pride originally wanted Fedor/Shogun but Shogun was injuried vs Coleman so fedor got a by but then Fedor's hand injury meant he couldnt fight until late in 2006 so Wand stepped in to fight Fujita instead.

Wand's toughness and finishing ability mean you could never count him out but honestly I don't think its a good fight for him, even just standing I think Fedor would have the edge in both power and especially defence and he'd always have the option of taking Wand down and GnPing him. Look at what Mirko did to Wand and then look at how he did vs Fedor.

I think of the top Pride HW's probably Nog would be Wand's best style matchup, wouldn't favour him but I think it might be a more competitive fight.

 

[jjjjjjjjjjohnny]

silva would have been absolutely decimated.

 

[HHJ]

Honestly, Fedor would have got him down and it would be curtains. Fedor was too big too strong, too fast and too good.

He could outstrike him too but it would be too easy to clinch and throw him down.

 

[TR1]

Wand has a slim punchers chance, if we are being honest.

 

[TheBulge]

Wand knocks Fedor out cold much like Hendo did. Fedor does horribly against MW's. He has a losing record against them.

 

[HHJ]

. Silva was able to get back to his feet when fighting Arona.

Yeah but thats cos Arona wasnt threatening him w anything. Fedor would bash silva to pieces on the ground.

Although it was fuckin awesome, in the second Arona fight. Silva was so mad being on the bottom he beasted Arona into the air and got up on pure chute boxe rage

Yeah but in the 1st mirko fight crocop had nothing for wand that's why I'm saying after the 1st rampage fight because wand had 2 wars with Sakuraba another with rampage and another with hunt. Like he went through the gauntlet and Mirko had like a little vacation man fak Mirko gay cop
