Werdum/Fedor rematch has more of a chance now.

Fedora time is up, sorry but he hasn't fought good competition since 2009 when he beat Andrei and Brett. Since then he is 4-3 with wins over horrid competition.

I tend to agree, but there is money in this fight in UFC

They weren't. You can watch the fighters and arrive at a logical conclusion if you have a 3 digit IQ.

Tell me about the amazing UFC HW division at the time.

Arlovski and Sylvia fighting every event was epic.

Let's see if TrollDoom "It's only fair if I get rematch" lives up to his word from 2010 and gives Fedor the rematch he was so avidly offering right after the fluke win.
 
Fedor will never be the the UFC because there is no financial benefit to the company. He has little if any name recognition outside of the hardcore fan base. Zuffa not going to spend millions to bring Fedor in because outside of the US no one buys PPV's. Zuffa needs strong PPV numbers to make this even a reasonable idea.

Making it available all over the world for free on ad dollars will be a financial loser. This is why Strikeforce failed because there was no interest in Fedor on PPV. The idea to pay him millions and millions just to build his name would be a financial loser. Affliction took a massive financial hit with Fedor's fights with them almost wiped them out.

I know that the UFC has deep pockets and can afford plenty to sign Fedor but there is no real need for them to sign him.

Outside of the funny meme this is the reality. Zuffa does not run a charity that's why people wonder how they setup matches at times look nuts. They are willing to build fighters on cheap money and sign big names with national recognition like Brock Lesner because he will sell a PPV. Fedor will not do cheap fights to build his name for the casual fans who drop money on PPV's. Ronda took cheap money for her first few fights and you think Werdum an Mark Hunt started out with 1/2 million dollar contracts?

Both of them where willing to use some of their name recognition and get a little better money to start but in the end where making less then the where likely in Pride to start. Now both of them are making mad bank in the millions and helping sell UFC cards and gets butts in seats. Fedor age and his status makes it unlikely that he will be willing to take a huge financial hit.
