    Ok, we all know the fight with Choi is a joke. Choi is a sideshow fighter who was supposed to be Brock Lesnar's 1st opponent, but couldn't get medically cleared. He has 1 true MMA fight under his belt, a quick KO over someone called Bobby Ologun.

    So the top P4P fighter in the world is facing a 1-0 fighter.

    Anyway you spin it, that's pathetic.

    So if you had your choice, what non UFC Heavy would you like to see Fedor face? He obviously can't fight Couture, Arlovski, Nog, Sylvia, Gonzaga and the rest, so who out there would be a good opponant for Fedor?

    Josh Barnett got owned by CroCop numerous times, a CroCop with little ground game. He's not the man to pin your hopes on.

    I don't think Josh Barnett can beat Fedor. But I would love to see M-1 get the deal done.

    Is Pedro Rizzo or Jeff Monson in a contract with anyone? They both would lose to Fedor(IMO) but both would be decent fights.
