Kharitonov: I would advise Fedor Emelianenko to be more active

When will be your next fight? Do you play to fight outside the Strikeforce Heavyweight GP? Until the GP Semi-Finals I’ll definitely have 2-3 fights. I want to keep myself in a good shape. You can always train hard, but without competing it will only have a negative effect during the fight.  I had four fights during the recent months. I’m always in shape, and always ready to fight, both physically and mentally. So I think in this case more is better. And I would advise the same thing to Fedor

Fedor’s coach Vladimir Voronov says the Hypnosis Interview is a “total bullshit”

Last week, Russian website LifeSport.ru (via MMAMania.com) quoted Fedor Emelianenko’s SAMBO coach Vladimir Voronov saying that Fedor Emelianenko was defeated by Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva because he was hypnotized by someone sitting in the crowd at the IZOD Center. However, in an interview to MixFight.ru, Voronov declared he never gave the controversial interview:
“I was really surprised by these reports. First of all, I never gave any interviews after the fight. We were on our way out of the airport, when a

Quick Quote: Bigfoot Silva wants the “arrogant” Josh Barnett in the Final

Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva successfully advanced to the semi-final round of the Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix last Saturday, when he defeated Tournament favorite Fedor Emelianenko via TKO (due to doctor stoppage) between the second and third rounds.

In order for the bout to materialize though, Silva must first face the winner of the Alistair Overeem vs. Fabricio Werdum match.

Fedor Emelianenko says the date of his next fight “Will be known in the near future”

“I don’t know for sure, but I may participate in the upcoming National Sambo Tournament in St. Petersburg. That’s still under question. This event will take place at the end of February. As for my next fight, Vadim will have some negotiations, and I think that in a very near future we’ll know the date of my next fight.”MMA legend Fedor Emelianenko seemed in a very positive mood, speaking about his future plans in an interview to the Russia 2 TV Channel. The SAMBO Tournament Emelianenko is talking about

Who’s to blame for Fedor’s downfall? Definitely not M-1 Global

Fedor Emelianenko’s dramatic defeat against Antonio Silva last weekend at the IZOD Center in New Jersey sparked a very heated, and I must admit quite one-sided, debate in Mixed Martial Arts community. Who’s to blame for Fedor Emelianenko’s two consecutive defeats? It looks like everyone has an automatic answer to this question – Fedor’s management, M-1 Global. People seem to forget that except of being Fedor’s management, M-1 Global is a fighting promotion which organizes events all around the world. And

MMA Power rankings: The Middle weights

 Terrible day. Have to take a detour on the way to work, then get a ticket because I rush the other way. The work day is fine, but when I go to submit the MW power rankings the whole computer shuts down. I really don’t feel like listing descriptions again (especially because I was really happy with the first ones, and I just think I’ll miss some points now), but the WW list will be done in full. So without further ado here’s who I believe are the most talented MW fighters in the world today:
