I hope Fabio got paid.

E: and by that I mean that I hope he got decent money for that fight AND that they actually followed through and gave him the money.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

I choose to believe his bank account increased six figured between rounds 1 and round 2.

We can safely say that Brock made a mistake in picking Mark Hunt because he would've had it drat easier with Fedor.

Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.
I'd still like to see Fedor versus a couple UFC heavyweights but there needs to be an age limit. How old is Josh Barnett? yeah make that the cutoff.

It would cool to see the Black Beast knock Fedor's head into the stratosphere.

Age facts (i was looking at this stuff earlier) The average age of a top 10 UFC heavyweight is 36 years old. Theres no top 10 ranked fighter in the ufc HW division under 30, the youngest is bizarrely JDS at 32. Fedor is younger than 2 current top 10 HW fighters (Hunt and Roy nelson) and just slightly older than Brock lesnar

yeah Roy Nelson would be good.

Fedor fighting anyone vigorous (which according to manyak is a man aged about 35 in heavyweight years) would be sad, however I think if you restricted the list to: Roy Nelson, rematches with Hunt or Werdum (:siren::siren: ONLY IF THEY ARE COMING OFF OF LONG LOSING STREAKS AND COMPLICATED SURGERIES :siren::siren:) or the fights with some historical significance like Fedor vs Barnett or Fedor vs Brock finally happening, I'd be okay with them.

Mark Hunt will KO Brock and then do the same to Fedor, and this will be the best decade of MMA for it

Following his controversial majority decision victory over Fabio Maldonaldo Friday night in St. Petersburg, Russia at EFN 50, a fight in which he almost got knocked out in the first round, Emelianenko implied that his fighting days aren't over yet.

"All is still ahead," he said at the post-fight press conference, "we will fight on."
