Default Fedor vs Aoki tomorrow

Damn it's been quiet in here.
Maybe some wagers on this exhibition match taking place tomorrow are in order?

I'm saying either Aoki by Fukushima Crab Hold, or Fedor by reverse flying gogoplata.

Not as much size difference between the two as I'd imagined.

I thought Aoki was a lightweight!?!?! Did you see the 8 questions with Fedor on Sherdog? Always pure class!

Fedor by roll kick!

Hijack - Who you got for Hatton/Pacman?

I think Pac has the edge in skill, but Hatton is tough as nails. Probably Pac by decision, if his discipline and training camp have been up to par that is.

Fedor- yes a class act. That guy exemplifies what's good in martial arts in my opinion. Always humble, always training, always calm.

Pacman pretty much has the works - be interesting to see if Mayweather has been able to give Hatton any kind of a defense in the last 4 months.

Well simple work for Fedor, will he ever really face the top draw fighters again? I hope so, but it looks like he will have settle for "big name" asian fighters or UFC cast offs for the time being

Rumor is it's gonna be Fedor vs. Barnett next.

Cast offs...haha. Does anyone doubt that Barnett or Arlovski could take the UFC HW belt tomorrow?

After barnett's performance against Gilbert Yeul (sp)? The pitbull hasn't been looking super hot against not so fantastic competition either. I think Carwin would give give Andre a handful...dunno about Barnett, but I don't think he's two or three classes above for sure.

Before losing to Fedor, Arlovski smoked some guys - his hands have improved.

I'd put $$ on Barnett to take anyone in the UFC.

Nice clip of Fedor rolling with Mousasi (Gegard is badass)

Yeah saw that - Kenny Florian said he had an inside source that said Fedor Barnet was defo not happening - leastwise not this summer?

As for Barnet looking bad against Yvel - have you ever seen anybody throw so many shots from the bottom and keep their head mobile? I thought he looked good rather than Barnet looking bad (not being able to get out of it not withstanding!Lol)
