The UFC 100 Fedor Chant: CP Readers Launch a Viral Phenomenon! (Hopefully!)
(All hail the Emperor. Props: KingAtRock)
Sometimes the Power of the Potato Nation is just too strong to be ignored, brother. For those of you who don't hang out in our forums section, you missed this recent brainstorm from "LargeMidget":
Despite some parade-raining by "My Fight Wiffa Cheeto," our friend "kadumel" took up the mantle and began promoting the idea on several MMA message boards. Though his thread on Sherdog was taken down for unknown reasons (maybe it was too awesome?), his thread on the UG is flourishing, with almost 100 responses, most of them positive — which inspired one supporter (or kadumel himself, it isn't really clear) to launch an official homepage for the movement, fedorchant.com. All from one little post on one little message board.
Is chanting "Fedor!" at UFC 100 a mature, respectful thing to do? No, probably not. And most of us know that the UFC's failure to sign Emelianenko has more to do with Sambo tournaments and Russian stadiums than a simple opening of the checkbook. But we're not gonna lie — if this actually came together, it would make us pretty freakin' proud. So if you know anybody going to #100, make sure to let them know about it, aight?
Now all we have to do is agree on the pronunciation: Is it "FAY-dor," "FEE-oh-dor," or "HYO-dor-ooh"?

YESSSSSS!!!!
Old, Bald and Irish Says:
That would be sooooo sweet if that happened.
I'd love to see Mir/Brock's post fight comments get drowned out by the chanting of "FEDOR!", "FEDOR!".
...Dana would personally leap up and pull the plugs on the audio feed.

And everyone don't forget to spread the word! Add your thoughts and insights on the forums!!
Anonymous Says:
those who can actually afford a ticket to #100 probably won't have the balls to do the chant. i'd LOVE to see that happen though!
aj Says:
Now we need spray paint templates of his face outline to tag it everywhere.
Todd the Angry Armchair Fighter Says:
If this works I see a chant of "show us your bewbies" working at the next Gina Carano fight
Levi Says:
1. Disrespectful
2. You'll pronounce it wrong anyway
Frank Mur Says:
What would happen if we all chanted OBAMA?
Alehandro Says:
I've seen some sherdog posts thinking about this too. I doubt people who will have tickets will even know who fedor is.
Hermit Says:
ITS "FYO-DOOR" (FYO sounds like "F+YO")
elusive Says:
no if you start to chant this you will just look like a faggot
Armfarmer Says:
I'm sure Dana will just be shitting himself with surprise.. assuming his internet is broken from now utnil ufc 100...
rokabee Says:
I already told you guys on the forums, this is gonna work unless I'm there. Send me there and I will start the BIGGEST FEDOR CHANT EVER KNOWN TO MAN! Ya Digg?
Kaibo Says:
I think this would have been more appropriate at Lesnar/Randy... this is UFC 100; we should be thanking them for bringing the sport so far along. That's like going to someone’s birthday party and starting shit with them. The point does need to get across though...I'M CONFLICTED

FAY-dor FAY-dor !!!!!!!!!

Dana White is too fucken real to go on the fucken inter-fucken-net. He wont fucken know what the faggot-bitch hit him
biohazardone Says:
Damn......pretty good idea if you ask me. I wonder if dana would actually relent and do something about getting fedor. It is quite a possibility.....if just those nutty russians could come to their senses. red devil fuckers!!!!!!
Perma Says:
I have plans to attend UFC 100, (holding 8 tickets as we speak) not sure if my court stuff will allow me to attend by if I do, I will try my best to start this chant, in the past I have chanted Fedor at key times while attending UFC events. (Lesner-Couture, Penn-GSP)
But the majority of the people at UFC events are like little Dana White clones and have no clue who the fck I'm talking about.
Fedor should buy a fcking ticket and appear at that point I would bet you anything his name woud be chanted like none other.
Infact I have extra tickets I planned on selling to cover my trip but Fedor wants to go I'll give him 2 tickets(omg would'nt that be the coolest thing ever to have him sit with ya at a UFC event) no worrying about dueche bags in Affilction Tshirts starting a fight in your section and having wannabe police bitches block your view during a fight you really want to see.
ANYWAYS I will Chant FEE-Dor and hope I can get more then one other douche to join in.
Anonymous Says:
they should be thanking the fans, because all the work they have done would count for nothing if it werent for people like us, and we deserve an undisputed champion.
Tom Says:
They should definitely do the chant.
The winner of Lesnar vs. Mir shouldn't be offended by it either -- hell, both those guys know perfectly well that Fedor's the greatest, and they'd both love to fight him. They should join in the chant!
Kadumels bleeding vage Says:
bunch of pussies, who cares if fedor the last gay emperor fights in the ufc, when gsp destroys that little latin boy he'll become number 1 pfp on the most popular fighter on the planet.
polish Says:
This would be good because it would prove to Dana and the Fertittas that people DO KNOW who Fedor is.... Sure there are some idiot casual fans who know nothing other than the UFC and THE ICEMAN ZOMG... BUT there are also those of us who will always have Fedor as # 1 HW no matter who sits a lot the UFCs throne unless something serious changes.
Vyapaar Says:
It Is Pronounced....."FAY-DOOR"
YesSir47 Says:
This will not happen- these tickets are too damn expensive- the real MMA fans who would actually start this chant will not be in attendance since they can't afford it.
Kadumel Says:
Just to add more confusion, I have heard it is pronounced Fey-yo-door, like Theodore but in Russian.
Kadumels bleeding vage Says:
yah why dont we start a campaign to chant the name of the ufc lhw champ when babalu is defending his belt with strikeforce, that will be real cool because everyone will know that the ufc champ is better. so cool, so cool, so cool....... why dont we just fuck the ufc and go watch old pride dvds and the occasional dream event, yah that will show them to sign some fat russian.
artigale Says:
Any chance we can get this on the other MMA pages? Fightlinker? BE? Not just the forums but the main page like CP did? Hell some one make a video and get them to put it on Break.com. But at the end of the video have a hot girl kick you in the nuts so that you know it will make the main page.
AKRhino Says:
Let's just chant his last name! Emialien.... Emi..... ah fuck it, let's just chant Affliciton!!!!!
Kadumels bleeding vage Says:
ungrateful "mma fans"
My Fight Wiffa Cheeto Says:
Parade Raining is what I'm about... after three days up I didn't see many people signing up for it on the UG. However if it's taking off, then cool, just as long as it's chanted like that Japanese TV show pronounced it and that it's done AFTER the match, which kadumel and LargeMidget already agreed was the right thing to do.
Jay Smith Says:
fuckin dumb!
Jay Smith Says:
@ Kadumel
Great idea
@ Kadumels bleeding vage
fuckin dumb
Kadumel Says:
@ Kadumels bleeding vage - Dana, I didn't know you read this site.
k Says:
Maybe you should focus on getting those 10,000 signatures you wanted on your petition first...
My Fight Wiffa Cheeto Says:
Parade Raining is what I'm about... lol... Hate. Hate. Hate. Hate.
After three days up I didn't see many people signing up for it on the UG. However if it's taking off, then cool, just as long as it's chanted like that Japanese TV show pronounced it (Hyo-Door-Ooh) and that it's done AFTER the match, which kadumel and LargeMidget already agreed was the right thing to do.
I mean who wouldn't want to see Fedor fight the best in the world... I mean if by some stretch of God, Conseco beats Hong Man Choi at DREAM 9, you know that juiceball is gonna be calling out Mr. Emelienenko... lol
lilbigvince Says:
Ill chant... loudly... but why not direct our attention at M1 Global. They are the real road blocks to bringing Fedor to the UFC.
FUCK M1 and their retarted terms.

Nothing less to be expected from the fans of the guy who armbared god himself!
hahaha that would be so fun, close up on dna white plz when crowd is screaming for the MAN
PS: ban the gsp retard plz
Perma Says:
Kadumel likes it when GSP does not use the vasoline with him
Wyatt Says:
Well, in Russian it is pronounced like fYOdor...but this is America so we'll Anglicize it as best we can. For chanting Purposes I'm going with FFFAAAYYY DOOOOOOR FFFAAAYYY DOOOOOR it's either that or "Give Us Fedor" Clap Clap clapclapclap "Give Us Fedor" Clap Clap clapclapclap
I'm going so...thoughts? What is the best way to incite a mob?
@bleeding vage: Die in a fire.

band23 Says:
we should sneak tito into the event and ave him start the chant but there is no way we could have omar the tent maker craft something to cover his head or his ego into the building.
Darwin Says:
