IFL The International Fight League is an American mixed martial arts promotion billed as the world's first MMA league. Instead of the established norm for MMA events, where matchups are strictly one-on-one affairs, each IFL card is a showdown between two camps of at least three fighters, each fighter fighting one match against another in the opposing camps. The IFL is currently televised in the United States on FSN / Fox Sports Net.

burke_p has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Fedor vs. Roy Nelson

It’s hard not to like Roy Nelson. The guy has been a quote machine the past few months. But his best work might have been after his successful defense of the IFL heavyweight title in which he knocked out Fabiano Scherner in the first round.

Instead of saying he’ll fight whoever his employer wants him to fight next, Nelson named names. And he named a big one by calling out none other than Fedor Emelianenko.

“I would love that fight,” Nelson responded when asked about Fedor by Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal. “But I doubt they would want Fedor to lose before he fought Randy (Couture), so I doubt I’d get that fight.”

I’m all for a Nelson vs. Fedor fight. It would be Fedor’s first legitimate challenge in several years.


fedor by KO round 1

I would put Roy Nelson near the end of a top twenty current HW list, but I really don't think he has much in his arsenal to compete with Fedor and I would see Fedor's arm being raised within two minutes...

Roy's not a kickboxer or a MW, Fedor wants nothing to do with him.

If Fedor lost to this bum, I would kill myself. This guy has some nerve calling out Fedor when he hasnt beat one guy in the top 50

For what it's worth, I thought Roy Nelson beat Ben Rothwell. That was a terrible decision.
