Some stuff about Rogers, real quick:

8th Ranked Heavyweight in the World

10 - 0

9 Knockouts

1 Submission

Only one of his opponents has made it to the second round.

I wonder who broke the news to him that he's not going to be undefeated anymore and that he doesn't have a choice in the matter.

I don't know what's more apalling. The fact that you think Rogers is going to get past the 2nd round, or that you seem so sure of it, like I'm CRAZY for thinking Fedor has a chance, let alone going to pull out a victory.

Did you really just ask me if I'm kidding? Did you really? Let me read it again, hang on.


I believe you are on drugs at the moment, or were on them too often in your youth, my friend.

I think people who just pop in here shouldn't say things that they think are funny.

I think he's rated accurately, based on his career.

If Fedor really wanted to fight he'd have signed with the UFC. Simple as that. But no, M1 wanted to keep their name all over him. Look at the advertisement for this fight. It isn't simply Strikeforce. It's M1 Global Strikeforce. He fought retreads in Affliction. We will never know how good Fedor is or could be until he fights real competition.

Part of his signing contract was that M1 owns half of Strikeforce. It will be M1 Strikeforce until it burns down now.

Haha both incorrect, gentlemen. M1 doesn't OWN half of Strikeforce. As a free agent, what Fedor was most stubborn about was that whoever he signed with had to do CO-PROMOTIONS with M1 Global. The UFC is too big a name. They couldn't have done a co-promotion, and I don't blame them. Dana White has too big an ego. Fedor owns some huge percentage of M1 Global so it's in his best interest financially to sign the contract with whatever promotion agrees to do a co-promotion with the company he's a huge shareholder in. Strikeforce agreed to that, and that's why he went there. Not because he's afraid, or stupid, or doesn't want to fight real competition. And by the way, did you not hear me say that Brett Rogers is the 8th ranked Heavyweight in the world and he's 10-0? That's not real competition? Who is? Brock Lesnar I'll bet. The people who only watch UFC need to change the record. Not you, Sal, just saying, in general.

I actually believe Corwin could beat Lesnar and Cain Velazquez definitely could beat him. I understand the whole promotional/$$ of Fedor going to Strikeforce, I just think that no matter how many people he destroys, he'll always be questioned because he's not in the UFC. It'd be like if Lebron would've gone to Europe out of high school instead of the NBA.

DOM i said what i said because anytime anyone says something against fedor you go off and start sayin they on drugs. i will give you that he has beat alot of top contenders but he's only fought 3 times in last 22 months. the last sambo tourn i seen he was beat finished third. second if he really wanted to he could have signed a two or three fight deal with the UFC and shut everyone up but instead he put money first, would a true champion have done that? most competitive people i know would have gone for the glory. so in all the light i truely think Rogers has the advantage that is if Strickforce doesn't fold first
