Disagree... his boxing is/was too sloppy for Stipe. Also believe Junior and Cain would have beaten prime Fedor.
Gifs are examples but there's no denying Fedor fought in a far tougher HW division and was a far better, more skilled, more well rounded champion than Stipe.
stay at your place, Terence.
Battle of the titans. Would be a good fight.
Prime Fedor fought and beat younger versions of Big Nog (x2), Cro-Cop, Coleman (x2), Randleman, Big Tim, Hunt, Schilt, and Arlovski. There is really no comparison with that and who Stipe is beating now (although there is no denying Stipe is a great champion). It's like apples and oranges.
To think that "prime Fedor" would beat Stipe is to deny that the MMA evolved since Pride days.
You really believe Stipe would let "prime Fedor" armbar him like Coleman or KO him like Heath Herring? Don't be silly.
In ropes or a cage?
I remember Prime Fedor grabbing the roles to avoid being taken down by Matt Lindland.
I imagine a prime modern day HW would be just fine against Fedor.
"Prime Fedor" exposed ducking UFC &&& Reem 2x before 3 fight losing streak + MW 1punched him lol
We get it, you don't like Fedor. That said, he's still the HW GOAT. He beat everyone he fought for a decade.
We get it, you don't like Fedor. That said, he's still the HW GOAT. He beat everyone he fought for a decade. Stipe has already lost that race.
Yes there is
Me, along with a lot of other people on here, are denying it
