Tomorrow night on Network television.

Any MMA fans better watch this! Fedor is arguably the best ever, and Brett Rogers is a huge BEAST from St. Paul. One of the top up and coming heavyweights. I met him a few weeks back at Majors during UFC 104.

I know I'll be watching.

I hope Brett Rogers knocks him out. Fedor is a bitch for ducking Brock and the UFC.

I think Rogers has a chance. That dude is an absolute BEAST. I stood next to him and almost cried.

I don't watch MMA but I did last night. The matches wern't really very interesting exept for the Fedor match. Wow. Being a great fighter has far less to do with to do with strength than it does with talent. Fedor was out muscled by Rogers but still floored him. I have great respect for him as a fighter and may have to see what he does next.

Yeah, pretty crazy huh? MMA is definitely more about experience and technique than pure strength. You'd never guess that Fedor is one of the best MMA fighters ever just by looking at him! He looks like a delivery guy or something.

uggggh. So mad Stupid Fedor beat Rogers. I remember him from Harding and was rooting for him like crazy. The good thing about Rogers is that he's only 28. He's going to make some big money in MMA. UFC had better jump on him now. Like so many fights, the guy in control relaxes just a bit and pays for it. It reminds me of the first Brock/Mir fight. Brock was so mad afterward because during the fight he knew he was the better fighter. Obviously it wasn't that clear in this one BUT I will argue that Fedor would not have lasted another round had he not connected...

But he did. What a bytch. I hope Rogers or Brock lays him out in the next year or so. Matter of fact, let's get Rogers vs. Brock first!

The other fights sucked.

Lol those other fights were garbage huh? Sad thing is that's the best Strikeforce has to offer. That Shields guy that punches like a little girl and Mousasi are two of their very best fighters.

I'm not as down on Fedor's performance as most people. Getting his nose cut right at the beginning of the fight was pretty fluky and I think that's the only reason Rogers was ever in this fight. Rogers looks promising but if he wants to be a contender he's going to need to be better prepared and conditioned. He was completely gassed halfway through the 1st round.

Good points. I'm reading stuff online that people think Fedor is "overrated" and "not impressive." I don't agree. He's a complete stud and definitely one of the best MMA fighters ever. It would have went much better for him if he didn't get that fluke nose cut, as you mentioned.
