If you were at Fedor's place...

[Shaddows]

If you were Fedor, which rematch would you want the most?

Werdum- he is the one that ended unbelievable undefeated 10 years streak, but losing to him wasn't all that bad, Werdom lost short stand up battle and then got lucky on the ground.

Antonio Silva- this was the only fight where Fedor got dominated and really took a beating. But than again, on a plus side all that beating he took and survived, and even went for a submission at the the end of the round. Also he didn't look bad standing in the first round. Biggest plus in this fight to me is that it didn't end in TKO/KO, but a doctor stoppage after Fedor survived.

Dan Henderson- this fight is the only time Fedor got stopped by strikes and that makes it special. On the other hand to me it looked like an early stoppage (Fedor said the same), and Fedor was winning the fight up until the end, and even knocked Hendo down before the stoppage.

So here it is guys. Which of these losses do you think hurts Fedor the most? My vote goes to Hendo, losing by TKO for a first time, he must felt sad.

I think the Werdum would be the biggest one.
Werdum was the top guy in the UFC and it would be a much bigger fight than BFS or Hendo at this point.

As for Hendo & BFS, they both are post-TRT and beating them would do nothing for Fedor's legacy IMO.

On a personal level, maybe Hendo. But again, what would be the point?

Werdum. He tapped, said uncle, actively gave up. He never gave up against Hendo or Bigfoot.

I think he knows that too. He never even mentions Dan or Bigfoot. He only wants Werdum. I think he thinks thats the only real legitimate loss of his career. I dont think he accepts the Henderson and Bigfoot stoppages as true losses.

Dat skill.

 

[Cooliox]

If I were at his place, I'd be focusing entirely on not glancing at his wife

Mir was a zombie when he submitted Nog. Sounds like it evens out to me.

Mir was not a zombie vs Nog, he was the HW champ and looked sharp in all of his bouts at that point in time. Nog was the #1 HW in the world and top 2 p4p when Fedor came along and put a legendary beating on him. Not really the same thing at all.

If I was at Fedors place I would probably hang out on his couch and play video games with him and we could have a nice roast beef supper in his dining room

Mir wasn't the HW champ.

And when I say he was a zombie, I mean he got his shit wobbled and submitted Nogueira while badly disoriented.

Nah Mir was a zombie bro. Right before he engaged beast mode.

Interim champ. Id classify this current version of Mir as a zombie but not the one who submitted Nog.

Fedor is probably at a buffet.. And I'm starving.. ..

He wasn't interim champ either m8

Memory is kinda fuzzy but didnt he lose the belt to Lesnar after beating Nog?

 

[KONE]

Yeah. Then he had his chance to win the interim title again and get the rubber match vs Lesnar but he shit the bed tremendously against Carwin.

 

[Gavster]

He should fight Cain or DC, guys who have been questionably nicknamed Mexican Fedor and Black Fedor. Would be cool if he stepped in vs Jones too.

 

[Noraaq]

Yeah. Then he had his chance to win the interim title again and get the rubber match vs Lesnar but he shit the bed tremendously against Carwin.

Eh I still wouldn't classify Mir as a zombie vs Nog, he was sharp and relatively quick in comparison to his "prime". That was arguably the best Mir has ever been. Nog's athleticism and quickness had noticeably dropped off.

 

[Lemmy]

Bigfoot Silva—the first one was a decisive beatdown.

Why do sherdoggers talk about fights that they haven't seen?

Fedor won R1, lose R2 than was stopped between rounds by the doctor basically for nothing (Kosheck went full fight with a broken orbital bone while Fedor didn't have anything).

To TS: Werdum, it's the only fight that makes sense in an 'avenging' point of view.
Bigfoot and Hendo are done, a win against them would change nothing.

 

[TheScorpionDude]

Werdum mos def

 

[olimpicus]

Werdum cause he is the highest ranked

Werdum. He tapped, said uncle, actively gave up. He never gave up against Hendo or Bigfoot.

It's very rare you'll see anyone in a triangle that long without tapping.
There was no shame in that tap - there's shame in very few submissions but certainly not that one.
