Not Sure if they'll Replay it, but FSN has a Pride Show & Late Last Night (Actually Veeeery EARLY this Morning:: )they had a Tribute Show on Fedor... Hosted by Mark Glazer & Frank Trigg... They Showed Fedor vs Heath Herring, Gary Goodridge, Kevin Randleman, Mark Coleman & Mirko Cro Cop... Dude Doesn't LOOK Like it on the Surface(Receding Hairline, Pudgy Build, Lack of Definition), but he's Awesome...& Frank Trigg did an EXCELLENT Job of Explaining WHY & HOW Fedor is sooooooo Good, to Novices like REED... Most of ya'll have Probably Seen these Fights Anyways, but REED Hadn't...GOOD Shit!!!... How will Fedor's Legacy B Affected if he NEVER EVER Signs w/UFC???... REED:dunno:
i don't think it will be affected, he already has a legendary status that very few mma fighters have, if any. BTW, I always liked FrankK Trigg too, he was a good arch enemy to Matt Hughes.
Yep, Fedor is pretty awesome. I watched Total Elimination 2004 (Fedor-Coleman), Critical Countdown 2004 (Fedor-Randleman), and Fedor Crocop live (I think that was either the New Year's show or Final Conflict 2005). Fedor shaking off the Randleplex onto his head and getting the W was fantastic.
REED had Heard about this, but Watching it was SURREAL... Fedor Tapped Dude Out like a Minute Later:: ... REED
The amazing thing was that in the previous round of the tournament, Fedor fought Coleman and Randleman CRUSHED Mirko Crocop in a stunning upset. Randleman was looked at as a LIVE underdog, and when he dumped Fedor on his head, the crowd went crazy...then Fedor got top position and a kimura...but the height and distance Randleman catapulted him into the air was nothing short of freaky! ::
i am watching that fight on youtube right now. One commentator called Randleman Jackson by mistake, and Rampage says "That's alright, all black folk look alike.". :laughing:
Goodridge was a beast in his day. Hey Reed, check out Gary Goodridge's fight with Paul Herrera, I think. You wanna see devastation. There's a story about that fight: Patrick Smith, a black kickboxer, got jumped by Tank Abbott and his entourage. Herrera was either in the entourage or just happened to train with Abbott. Smith found out that Herrera was going to fight Goodridge, so Smith told Goodridge's manager the story and said that Herrera was a racist. The fight was the result and I think Gary might have had that on his mind a bit. :: :: ::
Is that the Fight where Goodridge Locks Up 1 of his Arms w/his Legs, then Repeatedly Elbows the Living Shit Out of him???... BO'ed him like 7-8 Times, til he was Unconcious???... If so, REED Saw that on UFC's Greatest Knockouts, Volume 1...VERY Brief yet VIOLENT Fight:eeeek: :eeeek: REED:clap:
Both arms were locked up AND THEN his head got elbowed about 7 or 8 times. THAT was a very efficient asswhupping! :clap: ::
Could you just see what would happen if some punk tried to start shit with him at a bar because he thought he was just a pudgy, balding little farmboy?:eeeek: Kinda like when Urlacher tried to start shit with Bas Rutten until he found out who he was.
:: :bears: That is actually one of the things I like about fedor. He really doesn't look like a fighting machine, but he absolutely is. I tend to like things that are wolves in sheep's clothing, even cars for example, that are much faster than they look.
& he NEVER EVER Shows Emotion... U NEVER See FEAR, EXCITEMENT, ANGER or PAIN N this Guy...He's Similar to Cotto N that Regard... Fedor has the Body & Hairstyle of a 45 year Old FORMER Athlete.:: ..He Looks like a Football Coach or Something, but NOT Like U'd Picture a Fighting Machine to Look... REED
Very true. Nogueira LOOKS like a grappling machine. Fedor looks like a beer truck driver right up until he rips your arm off. ::
Word is that Sylvia is mad at his UFC pay and may end up in M-1. Fedor would put that bum in a pinebox :bears:
that slam randleman did on fedor looked quite painful. the guy may not have much of a physique, but neither did al bundy, who was damn near undefeated in well over a decade as far as I know.
