I have no idea what Striforce is thinking? Rogers is fighting Overeem in May. I understand that Overeem is a friggin bitch and has ducked US competition for years, but Rogers is coming off a loss and still he's fighting for the belt. That's like giving the Gold medal to an athlete that comes in last. And Werdum v. Fedor in June? Does anyone in their right mind think that Brandon Vera would beat Fedor? I'd take Fedor bound to a wheelchair over Vera.

These next two months will determine alot of Strikeforce's future. If Rogers and Fedor both win, they fight again in like a year after another long M-1 contract dispute when Fedor's already beat him? If Overeem/Fedor win and M-1 and SF can actually agree on something for once, then SF might be able stay afloat awhile longer. But if they keep putting themselves in these situations, they are going to ruin themselves.

M-1 will be the reason why SF will fail.


If Fedor truly believes he's the best why not fight top 10 guys? Oh wait, I forgot M-1 wants that record to stay intact and just have Fedor fight bottom feeders. Seriously Werdum? what has he done? Beat Gonzaga twice, before he became a known contender in the HW division. Fedor needs to stop ducking top-tier talent and fight the top guys in Brock, Carwin, JDS, Cain, and Mir for god sakes.

Yeah, Fedor needs to get to the UFC as he is done with the fights he agreed to with Strikeforce because time is wasting and I'm not going to be happy with seeing a 40 year old Fedor fight a 38 year old Brock.

Vadim Finkelstein will never let it happen, and Fedor will never agree to it.

Couldn't agree more...Fedor is not afraid of anyone...will fight anyone, anytime. Finkelstein (or whatever his name is....) is the asshole. He needs fedor to promote M-1 and he won't be a draw if he loses.

When I was working I thought to myself, "What if the Russian Mob is controlling Fedor and M-1?"

I know I'm probablly wrong, but what if.
