I can't believe people first it was Fedor will lose because this is the year of the upset. Now since he won its Fedor won because he held onto the ropes. No he didnt his hand landed on the ropes, Lindland went for the slam, Fedor planted his foot shifted his weight, and reversed Lindland. I know people want to see fedor lose around these parts, but what a shock(not) Fedor beat fair and square lindland. He was just another victim in Fedors quest for world domination. He isnt called The Badest Man on the Planet because they just wanted to give him a cool name.
It's because he is!!!!!!!!!!!

Agreed.

Even if Fedor did get slammed who said Lindland would have won anyway?

And i liked Fedor's Uchi Mata

buo

yeah. Fedor's "jui-jitsu" overcame Lindland's wrestling

the reversal on one tippy-toe is unreal...I had to watch that part around 20 times and still could figure out how Fedor could pull that of, on a 26 year old Olympic medalist at Greco.

This is a joke. Lindland is not even on fedors level. Any complaining should stop because lindland had no chance from the start

Come on are u siriuse. Stuff like that happens. If lindland was good he wouldnt have gotten dominated like he did.

I know this is the wrong place to ask this but how do u start a thread

fedor clearly won the fight. but he also clearly grabbed the ropes. fedor would have on the fight in the end but i do think lindland could have taken him down.


and wat the ****? lindland is only 26?

How many times have you watched that? Ive just watched it about 20 times over. Even though the ref was saying let go of the ropes doesnt mean he was grabbing them. His hand never once even touched the ropes his four arm just kept hitting it. He did not cheat by any means so get over it!

From what ive heard, this is not the only time he grabbed the rope. and i dont care how many times anyone has watched that, nobody could convince me that he is not grabbing the rope

i will admit though, that mid-air reversal is godlike

All these talks of cheating crack me up. Lets say Lindland did manage to get Fedor on his back, would that mean Lindland won? Fedor has been on his back in plenty of fights with other grade-A wrestlers that are stronger than Lindland (Coleman, Randleman for example) and have been able to either overpower his way out or subbed his opponent.

Chuck Liddell held on to the cage(full grip) like 3 different times during hi 2nd fight with Randy but I don't see anyone saying anything about that only that Randy got "owned".
