Cro did really shitty in the UFC, mainly because of drug testing. He had easy fights and he still had a losing record.
Fedor would have had the richest contract in UFC history and wouldnt be given B list fighters that Cro had.
I think Fedor would beat Randy but I dont think he beats the top giys of that time. I see him winning 50% if he was lucky
if they would’ve gotten him when they were first trying i think fedor mops up the ufc.
One of the biggest travesties in HW MMA is pre wreck Mir vs Fedor never happened
No
I am a huge Fedor fan, I’ve rooted for him except when he fought Mino. I am still a big fan and hope he beat Arloski
I think Fedor was used to a ring and did not train in a cage.
To be more successful his team has to plug that weakness.
He trained years in the Netherlands and speaks good English.
It’s all a moot point now. He is just collecting checks which I am fine with. I’ll watch all his fights because I love him.
If he had come straight over when Pride folded its pretty much old man Randy who he most likely would have obliterated, Gonzaga, Nog who he already beat and Mir. I think he would have had a good shot at becoming champ vs that field.
A few years later vs prime Cain and JDS? he’d have gotten fucked up. The Brock fight would have been interesting though.
Good insight
Frank Mir would have beat the shit out of him around that time
Dana White claimed that Fedor was scared of fighting Tim Sylvia, who was the reigning UFC heavyweight champion.
Nogeuira immediately beat Sylvia, who was then signed by Strikeforce to face Fedor. Fedor completely humiliated and destroyed Sylvia in under a minute, then beat previous UFC heavyweight champion Alofsky.
LOL!
I don’t believe Dana here
I know one thing, if you had time travelled and dropped off ANYBODY in 2005 on the night he fought CroCop, he would have won.
If they would have trained in a cage day one they would have had longer stellar careers
I honestly think same trajectory… 5ish wins at HW (all title fights) then start trading wins and losses.
