Well done Fedor
no head strikes or what??
Way to beat up on that LHW.
Work it fedor! He totally dominated that fight.
Fedor would beat randy but it would be a good fight. what a load of shit talkin about a match between fedor and Lesnar, they already discovered a match with randy wouldn’t happen while randy was in the UFC so why do they think it would be any different with lesnar??
“Way to beat up on that LHW.”
Babalu fought in the heavyweight division at that time.
yeah thats like saying brock just beat a LHW. Idiot
The rules for Rings during this time included no punches to the face when on the ground.
dan2thek- yea no strikes to the head of downed opponents allowed in RINGS. That’s why couture got subbed hard in the semis.
Retarded league… it looks like no upkicks either. The rules suck in Rings.
dan2thek- i was thinkin the same thing- no head shots, unless they are on their feet?
same with kicks? not to a downed opponent? and no upkicks, either?
fedor walks on toilet paper cuz hes the shit!
he moves like a lightweight and hits like a heavyweight.
Fedor by charlie horse
lol Min
realistically, these fights end in decision, subs or….tap out to strikes to the liver?
at any rate, even with his highly favored strikes in the guard position being unavailable, complete and utter take down domination for Fedor….both offensively and defensively
gotta say though, bobalu’s reversal from being on the wrong end of a naked choke to being in Fedor’s guard was clinical!
Fedor’s trainer from the corner keeps shouting: You’re the man, good job, smart boy”
Ring suck!!!!!
Fedor is an amazing fighter and I take nothing away from him, he is one of my favorites and has fought a lot of tough opponents (Babalu) being one of them, but I think he still has some things to prove against some fighters. The politics involved are so frustrating
Fedor would chew Lesnar up. Get real people. Fedor is the best lb for lb heavyweight ever.
Fairplay to Babalu, he almost had Fedor in trouble once or twice…
