I don't think it was a refusal to give recognition - it seemed to me like Fedor didn't fancy testing himself in the UFC and his people put money issues in as a deliberate obstacle....
UFC wasn`t the place to be at the time.he would have minced the likes of sylvia,mir and couture.he was on a savage streak and dana white didn`t want to give him the wages he deserved.fedor has accomplished so much that i don`t think he regrets not signing up.i don`t think he didn`t fancy UFC,the best heavyweights were in pride NOT ufc so i don`t think anyone would have put him off
God I hope Sonnen beats this c**t. Have a bad feeling about it though, can see him dominating the fight again, but tough to see how he doesn't get caught with a submission at some point. It's not just the first fight, that's always his problem, always leaves himself exposed. Either Sonnen via decision or Silva submits him again.
After all the shite talks gone on and the way Silva was dying to kill Sonnen he other night, i think Silva by early victory. But i'd love for Chael to win.
i don`t know how any mma fan would want this drug cheat/criminal to beat silva unless you`re a yank in which sonnen is their only hope in that division.2 years of disrespectful poisonous bullsh*t from a guy who really is up his own ass.i want silva to brutalize that piece of sh*t.i am going for silva to knock that c*nt out brutally after 3 rounds
sonnen won`t be talked about again when silva`s done with that big mouth c*cksucker.silva will knock him down again and again and he will taunt sonnen too.its gonna be sweet
Anderson is so good because he can do whatever he wants in the Octagon, and he wants to beat the shit out of Sonnen, and that's exactly what's going to happen.
laughable comment.have you been listening to sonnen over the last two years,disrespecting mma legends, the brazilian people and insulting silva and his family over and over again.sonnen is a cancer in the sport.maia didn`t deserve to be in the same octagon as silva and his gameplan in that fight was idiotic
