SevenZeroFive Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 baka Dana really wants Brandon to fight Matt Hamill actually, Hamill was pulled off the fight because he suffered a knee injury, that's why Soz was tapped as a replacement. i haven't seen any news of the fight being scratched completely. it's still part of the complete fight card on all the news sites, but the weird thing is it's not on UFC.com's fight card list.

dragonei Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 All of a sudden si steroid faced assasin ang most hated figure right now in MMA. A couple of weeks ago it was Brock Lesnar hehehe. Its probably not just him who is on the juice. Tim Sylvia and Royce Gracie I believe have also been in the same controversy. I believe if athletic commissions will do off comepetition random testing they will be able to find more atheletes who will test positive for illegal substances. What they usually do is time their intake of roids, in such a way that it will be off their system once testing will commensce. Actually, most athelete take roids not to increase muscle mass, but to actually help dealing with the pain they have to go trough with training. But like Tito Ortiz said, there is really just no substitute for hard work Quote Link to comment
JustSmile=) Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Still, Vadim Finkelchtein, Emelianenko’s manager and M-1 Global president, clings to the idea that the Russian’s involvement with the UFC will only come through co-promotional efforts. ^^ This will never happen. And I hope UFC don't co-promote their brand just to get Fedor. Quote Link to comment

El Chapo Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Ayos kaya pala tinangal muna kasi nawala si The Hammer. Panay pinoy kasi pinapalaban kay Mat, pagkakataon sana ni Vera irevenge pagkatalo ng mga Pinoy :heh: Quote Link to comment
dragonei Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Couture VS Noguiera - Both fighters are trying to recover from a loss. And hopefully the winner gets a crack at Lesnar. If couture cant shine on this one, its probably the end of the road for him. Hed be compiling 10 loses, which is so to say half of his win. BUT oh well, he never ceases to surpirse fight fans.

If I'm not mistaken, the winner of this fight will take on the winner of the Cain Velasquez VS Shane Carwin fight which happens on UFC 104. Then the winner of that fight takes on Brock Lesnar.

(ayaw ng ma-edit yung previous post) Unless Dana pushes through with the Lesnar VS Emelianenko fight on UFC 108 which happens next year Jan 2, 2010 to determine who's the greatest MMA Heavyweight alive today.

Great Milenko Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 LA Times reports that Fedor Emelianenko and UFC are ‘finalizing deal’ Almost one year to the day it held its first event on July 19, 2008, Affliction Entertainment folded its mixed martial arts division and returned to the UFC under an agreement that will allow the clothing brand to once again sponsor the world’s top promotion and the fighters under its umbrella. Affliction indicated that an inability to find a worthy replacement for Josh Barnett — who tested positive for anabolic steroids and was denied a license to compete — led to the decision to cancel its “Trilogy” event, which was expected to take place from the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., on Aug. 1. It was the straw that broke the camel’s back for the critically acclaimed but far from profitable venture. The end of Affliction MMA — much like the end of Elite XC in 2008 — left a coterie of fighters under contract who no longer have a place to call home. And at the top of that list of unemployed combatants is perhaps the most prized asset in all of MMA: Former PRIDE heavyweight champion Fedor Emelianenko. Zuffa worked hard to bring the Russian on board after the collapse of Pride FC in 2007; however, talks broke down when the parties could not agree on an exclusive fight contract. UFC President Dana White and M-1 Global spent the next two years pointing fingers, but a report from the LA Times earlier today suggests that whatever hangups preventing the two promotions from working together in the past may now be water under the bridge. From the LA Times Web site: “A long-awaited agreement between the Ultimate Fighting Championship and the man considered the world’s best mixed martial arts fighter, Fedor Emelianenko, is expected to be announced by UFC President Dana White on Friday, a source with information about the negotiations told The Times today. The source, who asked not to be identified because he’s not authorized to speak publicly about the dealings, called negotiations between the UFC and Fedor ‘very civil’ just days after Fedor’s scheduled Affliction Trilogy fight Saturday against Josh Barnett was canceled.” The UFC has scheduled a press conference for July 31 to cover a bevy of formal announcements, including their new Affliction deal, among other things. White has already gone on record to state that if acquired, Fedor’s first fight would be for the UFC heavyweight championship, presumably against division kingpin Brock Lesnar. If the signing of “The Last Emperor” is on Friday’s docket, it could represent not just one of the biggest announcements in UFC history, but perhaps a whole new era in mixed martial arts. However, nothing is official at this time. In fact, M-1 recently denied the LA Times report as “not accurate” in an SI.com article. Stay tuned … these next three days should tell the tale, hopefully, once and for all. Quote Link to comment
SevenZeroFive Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 ^^ This will never happen. And I hope UFC don't co-promote their brand just to get Fedor. You know what's interesting? Fedor's brother Aleks thinks exactly the opposite. He thinks, according to a post on Bloody Elbow, Vadim's "just using Fedor to push through with his own business plans". He is, after all, a majority stakeholder in M-1 Global, which means that if Fedor does go to the UFC Vadim loses the main man in his fight promotion, which would mean instant death (see: EliteXC, Affliction Entertainment). Aleks has a very valid and interesting point, IMO. Quote Link to comment
clubber_lang Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 If the reports are true, then I bet Fedor will fight Brock on The Ultimate 2009 this December... Quote Link to comment

JustSmile=) Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 (edited) FEDOR NOT A UFC FIGHTER f#&k Vadim Finkelchtein!! What does he have on Fedor that he cant talk to UFC himself? I know for a fact that M1 is paying him a lot, but is Fedor that greedy? I want Fedor to fight in the UFC so that we can end the arguement who is the best P4P fighter. With Ben Rothwell signing with UFC, there is no question that the best HW aside from Fedor is in UFC. I hope Vadim Finkelchtein gets hit by a bus so he can do us all a big favor.. Let's see if anything exciting will be announced by the UFC on July 31. Edited July 30, 2009 by G_sKiLLz Quote Link to comment

Let's see if anything exciting will be announced by the UFC on July 31.I've been waiting for the day that Fedor steps into the octagon to face some real competition. The only way that he can cement his legacy as one of the best MMA fighters (of all time) is by signing w/ the UFC. Until then, we'll have to wait Dana's announcement before this month ends.
