and for the record fedor will smash the fuck out of hendo, so what if fedor was even able to move to 205, he still a much bigger stronger 205er than hendo will ever be. and if its catchwieght at like 220 or something fedor advantage

According to that picture, Hendo can smell what Fedor is cookin’.

Double knockout from overhand right murder balls. It’ll be kind of like Rocky 2 only nobody will get up.

Fedor’s never gonna make 205 with Carwin’s torso.

If Hendo didn’t have the belt, I wouldn’t care if this is a non-title fight. But Hendo should be defending that belt, or it is as irrelevant as his Pride welterweight belt, where it was constantly put on hold for non-title matches. If this fight is gonna happen, it should be at 205 and be for the belt.

What’s with the shitty Fedor shop?

Any fight between two big stars isn’t pointless. I’ll be looking forward to it.

If this fight is pointless then 96.66% of MMA fights are pointless.
 
Enjoy the show, boys.

FBF…I agree completely. A belt doesn’t have to be on the line for a fight to be worth watching. Neither does positioning in terms of who gets a shot next. Some fights are worth putting together just for the sake of potential…this being one of them.

all this fight is about is to say that if fedor wins, he is still relevant and there for a big money draw for ppv fights…

If he loses , Zuffa will say he was overrated to begin with and they will not resign him so as to get rid of M-1 promotions

thas what i think anyways

That looks more like Lesnar’s torso with photoshop replacing the “sword” tattoo with Fedor’s cross necklace.

Sounds like Henderson see’s this as an easy win over a legend in the sport. I think Henderson thinks that Fedor’s done and is trying to cash in while the name Fedor is still worth something. Frankly.. I agree. Fedor nuthuggers can hate all they want, time will prove them wrong.

A drop to 205 is the smart move for Fedor. Not only because it’s a more suitable weight class, but just imagine all the awesome fight opportunities now that Strikeforce is basically the UFC. We could potentially see Fedor vs Couture, Rampage… who knows, if he did really well, vs Jones?
I can only dream, but fuck… I don’t give a shit how much of a Russian villager he may be, after this long in the sport he should be able to figure all this out on his own.
There’s just no excuse. He’s a professional athlete who weights 225 pounds. He’s competed at the highest level of the sport for years and is still only 34. My grandma could cut 15-20 pounds in a week and still be alright.

@Mongrel
okay….im sorry.i get fired up. Fedor is my dad. and i agree 100% i think fedor at 205 is the only move for him.

@fatbellyfrank
DEAD ON

OK, I know i posted on another thread that maybe its time fedor rode off into the sunset, but a fight with hendo?205 or 220, this is a fight I’m excited about, 2 greats, gettin it on just for the sake of gettin it on, fuck the belts , lets just see who wins, maybe I’m missin some point or other, but if you dont think that would be worth watching, well, I just don’t know what to say to you, except, “You sure you really like this sport?”

I don’t understand the negative attitude regarding fedor? Is it because he’s Russian…is it because he never fought in the UFC? who cares if he’s not the best any more he has entertained us for years and will continue to do so….write him off at your peril..I’m not a huge fan who thinks he can walk on water but anyone who thinks Henderson can walk through him at 205 has a surprise coming.
Call your self fight fans? who doesn’t want to see this?
Henderson gets more and more respect from me every day…class act

@Steveharde,
You failed to read my post thoroughly. I clearly stated that, “If fought at a catch-weight, I hope he gets dropped by the H-Bomb and just leaves the scene.”
Which means, if he’s not man enough to cut down to a smaller opponents weight, he’s not impressing me much.
‘If Hendo doesn’t have a problem with the size difference why would you?? hater’
Because I want to see a fair fight. Just like you I don’t think Fedor is ‘washed up’ just yet, and believe that on a good day, at 220, Fedor would eat Hendo for breakfast.
At 205, however, that’s a lot more competitive.
I’m just sick of Fedor’s management, mainly because they ducked Overeem. Now it’s pretty clear that Fedor would likely lose a fight against Overeem. Not because he’s ‘washed up’ but because he’s much smaller, less fit, and getting older.
It’s time for 205, no catch-weight bullshit, no excuses. Otherwise… he’s finished.

KING MO IS GARBAGE. he never should have won the title…. it was a BS. I think Musassi did more damage from the bottom.

@Mongrel
really long time fan huh???? long time fan that wants FEDOR to get KO and leave MMA. What fucking planet are you on where you think that a guy with 2 loses is done. He got Caught By and armbar in a fight wear he dropped a MUCH MUCH bigger fighter, then jumped in guard and started smashing…. and He split rounds with a monster in his second loss… where he still didnt quit…. I was there live…. silva was gases…. lucky doctor stopped it… he had none left and fedor was fine… when did guys with two loses start being washed up???? Anderson Silva Has More Losses. THANK GOD NOT EVERY ANDERSON SILVA FAN TURNED BAND WAGON BITCH AND SAID HE WAS WASHED AFTER HIS SECOND LOSS. You probably would like to see more GSP 50-45 fights too huh? And you do know there are REAL men out here that dont give a fuck how big anyone is…. If Hendo doesn’t have a problem with the size difference why would you?? hater

@scrameggs and mongrel
I agree 100%. If Fedor doesn’t cut to 205, King Mo can’t get his fight with Hendo yet…..and that’s some ho shit.

Last nail in Fedor’s coffin. Wha-bam!

@Cro Mag… so it is. I need a better monitor.

If the fight takes place anywhere above 205, Fedor has a massive advantage.
Considering Dan is a MW-LHW and Fedor is a LHW-HW(In terms of weight), it’s only fair that they meet in the middle.
I’d be pretty disappointed with Fatty if he doesn’t choose to cut down for this fight. To the point where he becomes completely irrelevant to me – and this coming from a long-time fan.
If fought at a catch-weight, I hope he gets dropped by the H-Bomb and just leaves the scene.

Hendo will suffer the 1st KO loss of his career.

And those who think that a fight between two of the greatest fighters in MMA history is pointless well you’re in luck…you don’t have to watch it.
Simple.

@Pen Fifteen

Tell me where you can get more than three cases of PBR for $50 and buy up and come over, i’ll take three cases and stream this fight online for free because it’s gonna be rad

To echo what closedminded had to say, what part of this proposed matchup appeals to anyone, outside of the “legends clash” bullshit? Fedor looked like a shell of his former self the last two fights, so it’s already hard enough for me to give a shit on that account. Add that to the fact that he’s fighting someone who has spent most of his career at 185, and I have even more of a time giving a shit. Finally, unlike Wand-Chuck, which was far less exciting than it would have been 2 years earlier, this isn’t a dream matchup fans have been clamoring to see for years. This is a case of 2 fighters whose marketing power has been severely diminished trying to make themselves seem relevant while avoiding place anything of consequence, like, say, a title, at stake. Feel free to drop $50 to see this on PPV; I’ll take the 3-plus cases of PBR I could spend it on instead.

yeah bring it on, i would love to see fedor lose some more.

ring the bell and let the fight begin, seriously, who wouldn’t wanna see Fedor v Hendo? this fight would strengthen any card it was on

@MoonBelly I’m not saying it isn’t an interesting match up between two legends of the sport. Moving forward, however, where does it leave us? If Fedor loses that’s three in a row. The last coming to a small LHW. If Hendo loses he’ll be defending his title coming off of a loss. Will I watch the fight? Absolutely. Will I enjoy it? Of course. But the next day, I’ll probably be bummed about the losers future.

high quality? reasonable price?
free shi pping accept pay pal,
you can order all kind of things you want,
believe me , trust me .

@ GroundFighter
Fedor has never looked like that, that torso looks more like Carwin’s with Fedor’s head photoshopped on it. And I would love to see Hendo knock out the “fallen emperor”

If Fedor still looked like that then he would be having less of a problem with the heavyweights. <—- Takes pride in pointing out the obvious.

@Pen Fifteen

WOW!?!?!?! pointless??? you gutless women. FUCKING TUF FAN. not every fight has to be to move up the ladder. they both have been champs…. both been on pound for pound list…. does a belt with some gold plate on the front really matter? Hendo vs Fedor any weight, any place, any day….. win for all!!!!

this is a bummer fight….I dont want to see either of them lose…majority draw?…but i guess its better than some young nobody making a name off of them…..

This fight has me torn in more ways than Butterbean’s mother in the maternity ward.
It is a good match-up between legends, and I want to see it. But it is yet another meaningless fight for Fedor. At least now he is more in a position to take meanginless fights than when he was the consensus #1 HW in the world. It is also meaningless for Hendo to earn the belt, and then not defend it. If Fedor wants to fight undersized fighters, he should drop down to fight them.
Also, if Fedor and Hendo are still under the overpriced contracts they signed with SF, then this could be an early bank-buster for Zuffa, and might intensify their desire to just scrap SF, which I’m not sure is good for fighters or fans (yes, blame Hendo and Fedor for that, not Zuffa).
Though I’m sure whoever wins this will have immediate and highly undeserved calls to fight the UFC champ.
Still, it could be a good fight.

Pointless? Pointless?!?! Why does a strap need to be on the line for a fight to mean something? This would be an epic clash between two great MMA fighters. Sure they’re both closer to the end than the beginning of their careers, but come on! Any MMA fan should be clamoring for this fight. Who else on SF roster would you rather see either of these guys fight? Does Hendo vs Lawal really peak your interest?

@Pen Fifteen
there is a ton of young guys that are coming up that will be fighting for belts in both SF and UFC. This sport is still young and the chance to see what could be the first of many legends fights makes me want to see this.

I agree with closedminded. I might actually care if this fight was for the strap, and, let’s say, the winner gets a UFC title shot. Now you’re talking. But as a one-off HW contest, it’s pointless.

Dan is the man!….he takes the fight at whatever weight? He has stones of steel and is the kind of tough SOB that Jonny Cash wrote songs about….Fedor’s management should learn something from him.

Am I the only one who thinks this fight is pointless? It’s a nifty idea but I don’t think their is anything to gain from it.

Fedor’s gonna lose every way possible before he retires. This time, KO.
