Alistair Overeem Dismisses 2010 Bout with Fedor Emelianenko

Yesterday we passed along the news that Fedor Emelianenko is calling out Strikeforce Heavyweight Champion Alistair Overeem to be his next opponent in 2010 (we used to say victim, but these days, we’re not so sure). Fabricio Werdum is a no go until 2011 due to elbow surgery, so apparently, Fedor and his M-1 Global [...]

M-1 Global / Fedor Announce: “We Want Overeem”

If you’re someone who doesn’t give a damn about whether or not a dude should in fact fight for a championship, you know, after they just lost, you’ve probably been hankering for Fedor Emelianenko to throw down with Strikeforce champ Alistair Overeem next. Hell, we all know it would make for an outstanding, edge of [...]

Randy Couture Talks New UFC Contract

Remember, way back in the day (three years is a long time for some), when all the talk was about if and when a recently ‘retired’ Randy Couture might square off with Fedor Emelianenko? Well, if you’ve been clinging to hope that someday, somehow, someway, that super fight might still take place, um, things aren’t [...]

Fedor Emelianenko Open to New 4-6 Fight Deal With Strikeforce

With the MMA world still ablaze about Anderson Silva’s recent come from behind victory over Chael Sonnen, Fedor Emelianenko’s earth shattering loss to Fabricio Werdum in June, kind of seems like a distant memory. In fact, between Sonnen’s headline grabbing pre-fight trash talk and Silva barely getting past the challenger on Saturday, talk about just who [...]

Marshall Zelaznik Believes Fedor Signing with the UFC Still Possible

Many die hard MMA fans have not fully adjusted to the post-Fedor-Can-Lose world, a place where up is down, nights is day, and fantastic tales on an unbeatable Russian fighter, are no longer fired at newcomers to the sport. You remember: ‘You think Anderson Silva is good? Dude, there’s this guy named Fedor Emelianenko who [...]

Report: Fedor’s Next Opponent Still Uncertain; Fabricio Werdum Possibly Having Surgery

When Fabricio Werdum tapped out MMA deity Fedor Emelianenko on June 26th the foundations of the sport shook like it hasn’t in quite some time (other top-quake-contenders: Zuffa buying Pride? Randy Couture ‘retiring’ in 2007? Brock Lesnar being relatively civil after subbing Shane Carwin?) Not only did most people not see it coming, but it [...]

Report: Strikeforce Looking to Negotiate Champion’s Clause With Fedor

It was just a couple of days ago that likely thousands of MMA fans did a re-read, while surveying a report from Sherdog, where Strikeforce boss man Scott Coker made the case that Fedor Emelianenko should fight the promotion’s champion Alistair Overeem next (alas, some staffers here at Fix needed to read it five times..). [...]

Alistair Overeem Says Fedor is a “Little Bit Out of the Picture”

Many MMA fans continue to try to make sense of the sport’s landscape, just two days removed from Fedor Emelianenko’s stunning loss to Fabricio Werdum. Fedor’s first defeat in a decade just wasn’t supposed to happen; not against Werdum, despite the Brazilian’s ever increasing abilities. Really, when you think about it, Fedor was kind of [...]

Chuck Liddell Concedes “Not Taking Shots Like I Used To”

Over the last few weeks MMA fans have seen two of the sport’s greatest legends take losses in Chuck Liddell, and more recently, Fedor Emelianenko. Of course, there are some huge differences in each storyline,  as Fedor hadn’t lost since December, 2000, (and that was due to a cut he incurred seconds in) while Liddell [...]

Scott Coker Says Fedor vs. Werdum II Possible

(photo courtesy Esther Lin/ Strikeforce)
Last night the Earth was without oxygen for just a second, as thousands upon thousands of MMA fans worldwide gasped in unison, while seeing Fedor Emelianenko tap out to Fabricio Werdum’s first round triangle-choke. Yes, many acknowledged the skills of Werdum heading into the bout, but few expected him to hand [...]
