I just found out about this fight. I knew Fedor was going to fight on New Year's Eve but I didn't know it was going to be Mark Hunt. That should be a great match. What do you guys think?
good fight...until it goes to the ground and then it's armbar time....

I've been a big Fedor fan ever since I saw his first Pride matches with Semi Schultz and then Heath Herring. I don't think there's a better fighter in the world. But with a guy like Hunt, just like Crocop, there's always that punchers chance. So I hope Fedor wins and I think the odds are in his favor, but there's always that punchers chance.
No doubt that just about anyone in pride has a puncher's chance (or at least in randleman's case a body slammer's chance!). Heck, Randleman KO'ed Crocop! Can't forget Fedor almost getting knocked out by Fujita as well! Fedor is just a complete machine....to strong, to skilled both on the ground and on his feet, and amazingly conditioned (his 3 round mauling of Crocop demonstrated this...). Yup, he is indeed the "Russian Experiment".

I see this one staying on the feet only as long as it takes for Fedor to get a single leg trip. He's much too smart to stand and trade with Mark.
If a high left missle from CroCop couldn't take out Hunt then doubtful Fedor is gonna risk breaking his hand again.
I'm thinking kimura.

I echo the thoughts expressed here, I cant see Dan beating Fedor. He may get a good shot on him but will he be able to finish. Fedor is one of the best game planners in mma at the moment, if he excutes he'll stay out of danger.
I'd like to see Josh Barnett, after a couple more fights get a go at Fedor.

I skipped the fish oil syrup this morning, but I used BCAA creamer in my coffee. Hopefully that will compensate enough to prevent muscle loss.-RedLefty
lol
You see, Fedor & I have this agreement. I let him know the best technique to win with and he in turn leaves Sarah Connor alone.
