Lol. This is crazy thread.
But hey, can we judge a guy by his looks. He might look a bit stiff on that picture, but so could I, so what. Imagine seeing a picture of Emelianenko's first time, and someone trying to say with bad engrish that this guy is gonna sweep the division. (Has that happened, btw? Can't recall.) Would you have believed it? (If we put those eyes and the fact he's russian aside.)
Back to the point. I wish good luck to this man. It's nice to see people are trying, who knows what happens. And even if he won't be the champ, who knows either, he can become a great fighter. Who knows.
What comes to this internet marketing-strategy and this pr-stuff, maybe these internet-boards are not the best place for it, based on the answers and the undertone of this conversation. There needs to be subtlety in these strategies.
Look at the original post again and give the guy a break. Even if the picture is not the best asset of this post, whose picture would be? Ricco's?
This is funny thread, but really, maybe this man does well. And even if he doesn't, let him try. He doesn't need to win Fedor in the first place, does he?
