Be honest, when Fedor’s legs went briefly wobbly at around the 0:17 mark, you thought to yourself, ‘Oh shit, Arlovski might actually do it.’ Then Arlovski jumped into one of those "overhand murderballs" that Goldstein warned against, and you remembered, ‘Oh yeah, it’s Fedor in there.’
More videos from last night’s fights after the jump.
Vitor Belfort vs. Matt Lindland
Renato Sobral vs. Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira vs. Vladimir Matyushenko (round 2)
Josh Barnett vs. Gilbert Yvel, Round 1
Round 3








1. That KO was not a "lucky punch". This is what Fedor does; he sees a weakness/opening and has the experience, speed and power to capitalize it to the max - that is why he is the best MMA fighter (at least so far).
2. Arlovski had no control over the fight and his punches were not "connecting". I have watched all of Fedors fights and I have noticed that he bleeds very easily if/when he gets punched hard.
Note that in the interview after the fight with Arlovski he hasn't got a scratch - plus if I'm not mistaken he says so himself, that Arlovski's punches were weak.
I suggest you watch Fedor vs CroCop where Fedor gets his face plastered and judge for yourselves.
3. Every time Fedor wins, the retards come out of their caves and start yapping about who Fedor should fight next - that would obviously kick his ass. One of my favourites is Fedor vs Kimbo. Funny shit. Yeah. Kimbo would be sliced alright...
Other wiseguys say he got lucky (again!?!) - he was losing the fight - he fights washed up guys, etc.
This is my answer to these clowns:
First. What matters is that at the end of the fight Fedor is always standing up victorious.
Second. People with Fedors experience and ability don't win by luck - they simply wait for the opponent to make a mistake and knock him the fuck out. The way I see it if you're fighting against an MMA heavyweight champion of Fedors class you would be lucky if you don't get KO'd (see CroCop).
Third and final. Fedor fights whomever his contract/agent/trainer allow him to. I don't think he's scared of anyone or that he would ever back down from a fight in fear of losing his title.
Cheers!
