Face it Dana, money is not everything. Certainly not for people like Fedor.
@meridian_james57 жыл бұрын
Well, the money would have reflected his skill level and legacy. 30 million plus back in ppv cut plus fighting Brock at Cowboy stadium would have been legendary. Fedor just wanted to take the cowards way out and fight for 2.5 million a fight against lesser competition. It ultimately resulted in Strikeforce being sold to the UFC because they couldn't make enough money off the small gates. Dana White was shocked because they courted him very heavily. Then they were prepared to pay him more than Silva, GSP, and Brock put together. Then they were letting him do Sambo and all this other bs he wanted. So yes, after all that and he still turned the deal down shows that the guy wanted no business with JDS, Cain, or Brock. Becuase Fedor's team knew he would get beat on three times and be out there.

When it comes to business dealings, and trying to negotiate a relatively huge deal that would be mutually beneficial for all parties involved, not getting the respect of a face to face meeting is quite an insult. Especially when Dana publicly challenged and insulted them. Traditional values, while going by the wayside everywhere, are still more common in Europe and especially Asia then they are here in the US. Hence the statement I made. So unless you have anything to offer to the debate, fuck off.......See what I'm saying about people from the US being rude ; )

@Danielson184 Mark Hunt had won the k1 title back then and was supposed to be one of the best strikers out there and Fedor outstriked him. Zulu was 15-0 all wins by ko or tko. Do u think its a big difference in ufc:s heavyweight division? Who did Carwin had to beat for titleshot? Mir? Who did JDS had to beat? Nelsson? Who had Lesnar beat? 50 years old couture?

fedor's greatness can not be questioned. he beat the shit out of top guys from all styles as well as out the very top mma guys. PRIDE had different format. great top fights, superfights, special fights and great rules. they had everything. the great thing about fedor is that he managed to beat the best in a span of 10 years. usually HW fighters don't stay on the very top for more than 2-3 years. he is the alpha male of the 2000-2010 mma era. now it's JDS,cain, cormier, werdum and overeem's time.
