I think Fedor could have been a pretty big draw if he had UFC's marketing behind him.

If he had come in and won fights.

It's possible he would've come in and fizzled out like he did in SF.

Fedor vs Lesnar would have broke every PPV record in history. Not to mention had Fedor won the fight.

Dana knows the UFC would have made a ton why do you think he tried so hard to sign him? If you can't see that then. . . . . .

That was pretty cool.

I'm still waiting for a spin kick KO in the UFC.

Anthony Njokuani robbed us of what would have been one.

Yeah, it depends on when we're talking about bringing him in, too.

I'm just not sure that would've been the case. I just don't think casuals know who he is.

Couture probably has a lot more stock with casual fans than Fedor.

The problem is now M-1 has lost it's leverage to even ask for co-promotion. Now the UFC has the best heavyweight in the world, not M-1. I doubt Fedor ever see's the inside of the octagon at this point. Dana and the Fertittas wouldn't even bother negotiating with M-1 now since Fedor's stock has dropped.

Make no mistake here, this was never about "paying Fedor what he was worth". It was always and forever about cutting M-1 in and giving Fedor the freedom to compete in Sambo. Eventually the Sambo thing got agreed to but Zuffa was never going to co-promote. There's plenty of blame to be had on both sides of this issue, it isn't wholly on Dana or Zuffa or M-1, this was a collective fuck up from the start.

I'm starting the new year off getting pwned by the NFL.

I'm starting the new year off getting pwned by the NFL.

It looks like I'm going to, too. Fucking Tebow, I can't believe this.

[Ludo]

Ya'll bet Steelers in that game?

[Luke]

I'm done with football but I am watching it (and loving it )

[Svino]

Ya'll bet Steelers in that game?

Yeah, I bet them at -315.

[Svino]

Goddamn, I do not believe the outcome of that game. I am going to refuse to learn my lesson on this. I will be betting heavily against Tebow until I get my money back or go broke.

[Ludo]

Sorry, guys.
