I'm just fucking around, a little bit. I actually like Fedor, he was the first HW fighter who put it all together & was always in exciting fights. If I'm being real he's probably the most talented Heavyweight to compete until just a week ago. Did he fight the best fighters in a consistent pace? No. But he did fight who was available for him in Pride, besides Sergei & Barnett there was really no one else in the org. Now here is where it gets controversial, you have guys like
@The Last King who goes around claiming Fedor beat this guy and that guy and his elite 18 title defenses, but then you look at his competition and it is very underwhelming, a bunch of cans and Japanese pro wrestlers. Fans on here go around belittling Jones for beating a older fighter in DC but praise Fedor for beating a 40yr one dimensional Coleman, Now when he fought good to elite competition at a consistent pace once he touchdown in America he then started to look normal. If Fedor fought better competition throughout his career, his record would look similar to how his record looked once he did. It's a always a one way street with Fedor, he fights fighters of his generation like Mir and nuthuggers go around praising him like he beat a prime Mir, but when he goes and loses to MW's like Henderson and argeubly Maldonado it's because he's out of his prime but fail to add in the fact his opponents are also out of their primes.
