Point is, with the possible exception of the Bigfoot fight, the man has never been defeated in a way where his opponent seemed superior. What other fighter other than GSP can say that?

I know he has a lot more left and I really hope that he comes back. Just imagine how deadly he could be if he trained at Greg Jackson's... damn.

He'll be back...

Well I'm going to end this with one of my favorites quotes from him.


"Years ago we hardly had anything to eat. Now I earn more money and I see every opponent as a man that tries to put me back to that poorer period. That man has to be eliminated."

Emelianenko, Fedor

1- Terrible management from his managers,
2- No Mental preparations for a lose, or for approaching a fight after a lost that came after a decade.

I really wish he moves to Greg Jackson's, or at least go to some place where he trains with fighters that are currently competing, not go to Netherlands and train with Arnesto Hoost. Man what can that fela do to you today?
