The UFC is the biggest organization in the world; M-1 is some little Russian bullshit.
Why would the UFC co-promote with them? Just to get one fighter? Fedor's cool and all, but shit.

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. . . . . .

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.
