Who has he fought in the past 5 years worthy of his "status" in the mma world?
When has he faught anyone hold the current tittle in the UFC , the BIggest organization for MMA in the world. end of story..
FYI his impressive record:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedor_Emelianenko
I believe strongly and agree with Victor that Fedor is probably the best in the world and he will win decisively in the rematch.
Leaving his arm in, for both the first armbar, and the triangle, wasn't his only mistake.
I'm most of them will be address..
Fedor has a great record, went for a long time without a loss great, wonderful. Its time for everyone to get off his nut sack. Criticizing him is not something that should be accepted as crazy talk.
He clearly makes mistakes, and we would see more of them if he would fight people of his caliber once in a while.
