I realized a little while back that the only way Fedor ever fights in the UFC was if he lost. So if it had to happen, this wasn't a total loss. My feed went out, but i hear Fedor knocked him down, jumped in and got caught in a triangle. That's not getting his arse whooped or dominated. Hopefully his posse quits asking for the moon, and Dana can put a sock in it long enough to not offend the guy and get him signed.



Fedor was way too aggressive. It was really kind of a glancing blow that he knocked Werdum down with, u could tell he wasn't hurt. Then Fedor dives straight into Werdum's full guard and was almost immediately in a triangle. He thrashed loose and went right back into it and was in another triangle...this time to the finish. He didn't get his arse kicked, but its def. his fault he lost.

Fedor post fight:

quote:

Emelianenko, who was said to have been consoling his sullen team members backstage afterward, was characteristically calm following the defeat, smiling to the press as he answered questions.

“It happens that I was made kind of an idol,” said Emelianenko. “Everybody loses. That happens. I’m an ordinary human being, as is all of us and if it is God’s will, the next fight I will win.”

The Russian star said he would welcome a rematch with Werdum if the Brazilian granted it.

“I am very, very sorry and it’s a pity that I disappointed people that really believed in me and trusted me, but everything in this life happens for some reason,” said Emelianenko.

Emelianenko made no excuses for the loss. He said his camp went according to plan and nothing felt or appeared out of the ordinary as he headed into his 34th professional bout.

“I tried to work out (motivated) to come into the fight in my best shape and the fight today showed that maybe I didn’t work enough,” he said. “I didn’t manage to make all my technique to become automatic. That means I will have to work more.”
