I was watching tv earlier and saw a promo for Affliction's Trilogy event where they stated that Fedor had won his last two fights by "devastating knockout". Thats not true. He knocked Arlovski out and subbed Sylvia. Its not that big of deal, but im kind of bias because i find they way affliction does business to be very stupid when it comes to the actual fight game. Great t-shirt company though.

This is a bit like EliteXC (or the UFC for that matter) biasing Kimbo.

Meh. It's no big deal at all. The MMA fans who know who Fedor is already knows he knocked Timmy silly before sinking in that choke.

It's good marketing either way.

D.P.

Not a big deal, but just reinforces my belief that Affliction revolves around Fedor, and marketing Fedor.

It's possible they just categorized a submission as a type of knockout. Thats how I see it anyways'!

It's not a big deal if you ask me. I remember UFC fixing MMA record of Vernon White on UFC 49 in order to make him look as a better fighter than he really was. It was a co-main event and he was facing Chuck Liddell, so his real MMA record would've looked pathetic (especially if Buffer had announced it), because the guys who have more losses than victories aren't to headline PPV.

Do guys with loosing records even get into the UFC?

i dont believe so. but it depends on the amount of fights that hes been in or if that fighter always puts on an exciting fight.

As far as I've observed, fighters in the UFC either have winning records or even records! I haven't seen any loosing records yet! Maybe in PRIDE because they were a bit more lax but not in the UFC!
