Cain couldn't have been offered to Brock, who ever wins between cain and carwin will face Brock. And I'm sure Brock does want to fight Fedor, because he said himself at the beginning, he wants to fight the best, either you're good or you're not, and Fedor is the best competition out there right now

**Liquidrob** · 07-19-2009, 09:43 PM

I dont know why Fedor would even sign with the UFC at this point, he wants his freedom, wont sign his likeness away, Dana wont budge on these things either

If Brock wants to fight Fedor, get out of the UFC, until than he is 2nd class champ and only hillbillys think he is the best HW in the UFC world

Fedor has a bunch of guys to fight outside of the UFC and can make good money doing it, Brett Rogers, Overeem, Roger Gracie, barnett is its a close fight and throw in a giant or 2 in Japan and thats his next couple of years

Maybe even Big Foot Silva, hope he gets to fight back again in the US, he has some great potential

LOL @ Liquidtroll in bold.

I agree, as i've said all along, Fedor has no real incentive to sign with UFC. He has plenty of fights on the table, and there will always be a promoter willing to lose money to put it together.

They already planted seeds for Brett Rogers. Big Foot Silva wold be a big fight in Japan. And like rob said, they always have pro wrestlers/giants/cartoon characters/actors/sumos whatever to throw at him for New Years Eve shows.

Besides, Barnett is taking him out anyway. Fedor taps on Aug. 1.

You don't think Brock is the best heavyweight in the UFC? Who, exactly, has a better resume in recent fights?

Brock should be ranked #2 behind only Fedor in the world right now, with Barnett able to jump to #2 or #1 depending on how the Fedor fight goes.

Also, regarding Fedor, Dana will definitely be more willing to budge on some contract negotiation terms because he realizes just how big the dollar signs are if they do Brock v. Fedor soon. No UFC fighter has had the mainstream publicity Brock has recently, and they would like to cash in sooner than later with the biggest fight they can make. That makes Fedor in the UFC a real possibility despite all the past issues.

UFC world as in the UFC is the only form of MMA

Dana can make as much money with Brock vs Carwin/Cain/Randy II/Mir III/Cro Cop or whoever else instead of Fedor

Dana will not budge on certain things, no way he lets Fedor do a 1 fight deal or something along those lines for a title shot against Brock without owning Fedor

Just let the winner of the next TUF HW show fight Brock, he can pay winner 5k to show, 5K to win and get as much ratings as paying Fedor

Cro Cop on Brock

"I have to say that Lesnar's victory is actually a loss for MMA as a sport. I dont want to be missunderstood, Lesnar is very dangerous but I am an old school fighter and I prefer technique. This was a loss for MMA. Almost all that Lesnar accomplished is a factor of pure raw power. Lesnar does not have many fights in his career and I would love to see how he would react to two or three good low kicks."

Just give Cro Cop a title shot, please dont waste him again

**Warner2BruceTD** · 07-20-2009, 03:32 PM

Everyone wants to jump on the Lesnar money train. This shit is great, you got guys lined up around the block talking shit and angling for a paycheck.

Mir
Carwin
Couture
Cro Cop
Lashley

Wouldnt be surprised to see Mark Kerr come out from under a rock to get in line, or Tank Abbott to fall out of a bar, or Tim Sylvia come out of his latest coma.

**RosettaStoned** · 07-20-2009, 03:34 PM

Is Mike Swick trying to get a piece, or does he just think Lesnar is a douchebag?

As long as he remains Champ Brock is stuck in the UFC.

Another reason why the UFCs match-making is horrid

Rich Franklin vs Dan Henderson 2 will headline UFC 103 on Sept. 19

http://mmamania.com/2009/07/20/rich-franklin-vs-dan-henderson-ii-will-headline-ufc-103-on-sept-19/

Former champions Rich Franklin (25-4) and Dan Henderson (25-7) will collide for the second time this year in the UFC 103 main event from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, on Sept. 19. ...

**calgaryballer** · 07-20-2009, 05:38 PM

I was :Smh: at that. I like both guys, but their first fight was extremely average. Rich was supposed to move up to LHW, with Dan winning the shot on Ultimate Fighter. I don't want to see them again at 205, 195, or 185.
