I knew fedor would win and he did, with great versatility, I must say I was worried for the russian it looked like a true legend was in danger of being dropped, he took some real offense from the giant hong man choi, but I believed fedor the winner from the start, and everyone who knows anything about mma were proven right.

I mean to his due Hong Man Is A Complete Colossus and a Powerful and deadly human being, but in mma hes not much more then a circus freak, hes a tower of muscle

but that only means so much when your against THE BEST.

FEDOR!!!! FEDOR!!!!

Better Luck Next Time HMC, Wonder what would of happened with the nbt Brock Lesnar …

Why are you retards talking about WWE “fighters”? I use that word very loosely. Fedor is going to keep kicking the crap out of crappy fighters until he comes to the UFC and fights actual MMA competition. Cro Cop, Rua, Wanderlie, Sokodoujou (or however you spell it) were all good Pride or K1 fighters that look like shit in the UFC. Anderson Silva and Rampage would be your obvious exceptions.

ice, have you ever heard of crocop of hunt? k1 heavyweights who created a stellar career in mma! another terribly wrong point you’ve made is saying choi isnt muscular- you might actually want to have a look at some of his fight videos. for a guy who weighs 165kg, he is VERY muscular.

it is possible for fedor to beat choi in standup as well. lebanner and mighty mo both beat choi via textbook technique and a gameplan that couldnt be more simple than it was(mo koed choi). the only problem here is that fedor isnt as big as lebanner and mighty mo and as an mma fighter, his standup skills are not as good as for eg lebanners. but still, his standup should be good enough for choi. i dont think leg kicks can hurt choi. imo it would be better to hit him in the face because he’s not very used to that. if fedor manages to rock him, he should take him down to the ground in a nanosecond and make sure to land on top(its hard to balance the takedown when someone is that huge) and go for the gnp or a submission.

so, for me the key to fedors victory is going under choi’s guard and then hard punching his face and then backing out just to do it again and again. and when hes ‘ready’(rocked) go for the takedown, land on top and gnp or submit him.

choi, however, has a solid chance of winning if he has learnt anything from his fights with mo and lebanner. if he wants to win he has to save his energy and keep the distance. throwing knees would make things easier for fedor (easy takedown) so he needs to use his arms only(he never kicks anyway). he should throw jabs to collect points and he should go for the ko or tko only if he manages to rock fedor, not before that because we all know how hard fedors chin is and also his recovery time is quick.
this will be a good fight. i give fedor a 55:45 chance to win only because of two obvious reasons: 1)he’s been out for a while and 2) choi’s size

I can’t believe I am actually hearing this….most of you think Hong Man Choi will beat Fedor? Have any of you even watched the K-1 fight from last year where he took the title from Gary Goodridge? The guy is just big. He has no technique or skill. His one attribute is he is big. Also, let’s look at how most K-1 fighters have done in MMA…especially at the heavyweight levels. They have done horribly…mostly because they are just big dudes who go into heavyweight K-1 and just hit eachother with little attention to technique or skill. Fedor took out Gary Goodridge in Pride much faster than Hong Man Choi did in K-1 and in a much more convincing fashion. When Fedor was done with him he was face down on the mat not standing up. Also, Fedor has knocked out and submitted other guys who were much bigger than him many times in the past. He is actually quite a small heavyweight. Yeah, hong man choi is big and Fedor might not be able to pick him up but a sweep or a trip or a heel tap doesn’t require that. I wonder how good Hong Man Choi’s balance is. Judging from the fights I have seen and the giants lack of coordination I would say his balance probably sucks. Lastly, Hong Man Choi is very big but he is not muscularly massive so I doubt he could throw Fedor around either…especially on the ground. Fedor beats him easily in the first round by submission, knockout, or whatever else he feels like that night. For that matter any of the top name heavyweights could kick Hong Man Choi’s ass. Size without strength, technique, coordination, or anything else that makes a good fighter means nothing when it is put up against skilled MMA fighter.
