Hahaha, United States versus Russia again, very funny!
|
I pray to any gods that exist that this isn't the man Fedor loses to. :(
|
Prayer
Oh Lord Jesus may it not be so!
|
I haven\'t seen too much of Rogers, 2 or 3 fights, but from what I gather the dudes got very little ground game. What\'s the worry? Fedor will tool him.
|
Rogers better pray that he\'ll be able to keep this fight standing, and that he hits Fedor right on the button. This is yet another fight to protect Fedor, who is Strikeforce\'s Kimbo Slice, only talented.
Fedor deserves one or two gimmes, especially after taking on back to back former UFC champions Sylvia and Arlovski. No matter what anyone says, those two would still be competitive in the UFC today, and the wins shouldn\'t be discounted. The same goes for Rogers, although I look at his victory over Arlovski as more of a fluke. A flash KO does nothing to prove how well he\'ll be able to do in an actual battle, which is what I expect to come out of Fedor. |
I\'m afraid that Fedor will try to standup with Rogers,if that happens it can go 50/50 if not then Fedor by Armbar.
|
Fedor\'s Standup
Well Fedor tried standing up with Arlovski and look what happened!
|
I just watched some Brett Rogers fights and i now realize what is going to make the difference in this fight. Brett Rogers has Big Black in his corner. How could he possibly lose when he has that guy in his posse? Seriously though, what is the connection between these dudes other then being huge black dudes? Anyone know?
|
I ordered some cheap nose bleed tickets for this event. I don\'t imagine Fedor will be in the Chicago area again for a long time, if ever, so it is worth $35 to see him live once.
I just wish Babalu was on this card... |
