If Fedor picks up the victory, which I think he will, what exactly will this prove? He can still beat middleweights that want to fight in HW? How is this any different from when he fought Matt Lindland?

Apparently SF's announce team has been dropped in favour of Goldberg and Rogan. So Zuffa shows have now got the same commentators

I don't think it is. This is just a fight for the fans. Both fighters want it (well I'm not 100% sure about Fedor), so let's enjoy it without thinking of its subsequent effect on rankings. Henderson wishes to test himself and M-1 doesn't mind. Simply think of it as PRIDE heavyweight champion taking on PRIDE light heavyweight and middleweight champion... If Dan succeeds, though, it's gonna be huge. It's like becoming the best PRIDE fighter ever... in a way

Hater much? What will it prove??
Hendo is LHW champion, fedor is undersized HW.
This means Fedor just won against A LHW champion end of story.

What?
I listen to Joe and also to his podcasts. Joe has a lotof respect for Fedor.
He critiqued Fedor a few times like many did, because he fights guys that are too big and he is not willing to learn bjj.

This is an exhibition match for me, it holds no value other than being a great spectacle.
Don't give me heat for this because Fedor is a true legend, but i can see Hendo winning by a standing one punch KO.

and as we all know Strikeforce has a very deep LHW division!  Maybe after he is done with Fedor he'll defend his title against Houston Alexander!
Seriously dude, get a grip! Strikeforce LHW division isn't quite at its peak. You can neg rep me all you want but the fact still remains that Hendo is pretty much a big fish in a little pond.

Thank You! I like your arguments better then the other guy I just replied to! I think I'll take your advice Senator. I just hope it will be better the Fedor vs. Lindland!

Neg Rep: "Your Lack of Respect For Fedor Offends Me"
WTF I just negged this douche for disrespect of Fedor and he is still Green after 14 posts, who the fcuk gave this guy Green, this must be the work of Rival or Toxic, I call upon all Fedor Fans to show this fool whats up and make this fool red for the rest of his fcuking life.

Wow.. your douchebag reflex just cannot be suppressed. Yes, by all means, let's neg rep someone for having a different opinion.
He made a joking comment about Fedor Christ - get him! Burn the heretic at Strikeforce's holy altar before the UFC takes away all our good fights! *foam at mouth*
