Fedor could’ve finished the fight in 15 seconds if he didn’t allow Chael to get up several times.

Is there a video of Fedor vs Chael?
That Fedor fought Chael Sonnen is hilarious. Isn't Chael a middleweight? Has Fedor ever fought below heavyweight?
Gotta love Bellator.
Gotta love Bellator.
Gotta hand it to Chael, he's fought a lot of great fighters in his career.
I think Chael was heavier than Fedor.
Chael had no chance in this fight, he made Fedor look like he was still in his prime.
Maybe time for Chael to retire, think he'd be a decent pundit.
Fedor weighed in 9lbs more than Chael.
Good post match presser, he is one of the better talkers in the sport, in my opinion.
Oh, i remember wrong then. My bad.

He always comes across great. Nothing but respect for that man.
The party goes on
That's a man that has lost his focus
Love Fedor...but ffs he was gassing in the first Rd...think Bader is going to win the final.
Good video of Khabib's camp on the night before and the day of the fight.
Teddy Atlas' words at the beginning and end of that video are so poignant...
Latifi vs Anderson added to UFC 232. Shaping up to be a good card this. Hope the MMA gods don't screw us over.
That’s a man who doesn’t give a feck. It’s crazy how he’s using the UFC to print money, with no real intention of living the lifestyle that might actually turn him into the sort of elite athlete he’s being marketed as.
Ultimately Conor is doing the right thing. He knows the fight game is temporary, so why not make as much money as possible then reinvest it in various other business ventures. He should have a few more fights in him before he moves on, unless of course he loses his next one in which case he may go the way of Ronda Rousey after she lost to Nunes.
I wouldn't say he was using them. I'm sure financially the relationship is more than reciprocal. The crazy part is him continuing to half arse it and step into the octagon with people who can and will put a severe beating on him if they get the opportunity. When Khabib had the kimura on him I winced because I was 100% sure he was going to tear his shoulder out of the socket. I think some lenient refereeing saved him in that instance.
True. It’s a quid pro quo arrangement. The only suckers are the people forking out for PPV.
Dunno why people react to GSP really. He changed his mind every 2 minutes. He said 2 different things in that interview!
Anyone planning to watch this?
Bet it will be really slow and cringy.
The CO is a Norwegian, so i might watch it if i find a good stream.

No way Ortiz doesn't win that (it'd be hilarious if he does lose though.)
Oscar is a scumbag for putting it on which is no surprise, Ortiz is a scumbag for clearly taking advtange or Liddell being fecked these days as some weird redemption for himself as well. Chuck needs saving from himself, I don't know if he's skint or just wants to fight again but he was getting brutally KOed years ago I can't see how this ends well for him.
I'm gobsmacked that they actually want to charge money for that garbage.
And yeah, Chuck should really not be fighting any more.
No, he has never fought below heavyweight, and that is, for most who hold Fedor as the GOAT or in contention, the reason why.
Fedor could have had a legitimate chance to make 185 through most of his career, by cleaning up his diet, running a low BF% and then water cutting down to 185. Realistically Chael was "bigger" than Fedor in that fight, in terms of lean body mass. You had a soft Fedor rolling in 9 pounds heavier than a much leaner Chael.
Fedor fought most of his career around 230, and he'd be lucky to have been running sub 20% body fat, I'd actually guess he was around 23% most of his career. That means he was could have dropped ~30 pounds just by dropping down to the 10% range, which is well within water weight distance of 185. Whether or not he could have actually made 185, he would have been very close, which is remarkable considering he fought his entire career at HW.
You're* 
Conor McGregor seems a lot more mentally strong than Rhonda Rousey IMO. He was like that after the Diaz loss as well and I reckon he might want another shot at Khabib. Should be a fun fight and the UFC will probably make it happen and cash in.
Conor talks a lot of shite to sell fights, but he definitely loves fighting and would be the type doing so even if he never made it to the big leagues. Think he said he grew up in a 'fight or get battered every day' environment and it shows. Think he's taken loads of L's and beatings in his life and that has strengthened his resolve unlike a Nas or Rousey.
He might not like losing, but he can certainly handle it.

It's a fair stance to be honest but it's obvious he's just setting up the Conor fight for GSP here

Got dragged down a rabbit hole reading about this guy and exactly what happened. Seems like a an absolute thunder cnut.
