The Last Emporer

There was a thread awhile ago by SBD about who our "Tiger Woods" is.

Here's one of mine:

awesome!  but now im tired

WOW! That guys a freakin' wall dude. But eventually like all the rest he will meet his match. For now though he looks like the baddest dude on the planet.

 BADASS  

But as much as I enjoy the stand up strikers over the grapplers.....IMO: This dude is the Ultimate badass!!!!

Fedor..... If I ever see his manager/agent/M1 Business Partner on the street I'm gonna give him a norris style roundhouse kick in the neck.

Fedor is just another fighter to me now......well almost, he's still a bad dude. I'm just never gonna pay to see him fight second and third tier talent.....ever.   

I hear you on that. Who knows what really went on between Dana and Finklestein...but the whole cross-promotion thing is BS.

Then again...it wouldn't kill UFC to cross promote just one or two times. Sure, it might not be the BEST business decision, but they'd still make money.

Anyway, Fedor signed to Strikeforce. So just find someone who has Showtime and watch his fights for free!

PS - Joel - Fedor would murder Royce on the ground. He has more submission victories than KOs or TKOs.

I don't know Dustin....Royce is FAST and does not waste too much energy running all over the ring "boxing"...He seems to go for the take down right off the bat  AND has been known to subdue guys 3 times his weight class - ever see the Royce / Kimo fight?

It would be nice to see a Royce / Fedor fight 


Any thoughts on Kimbo?

Good call Dustin. Fedor is one bada@# dude.

Sorry Mooch but I think Dustin is right on this one Royce Gracie is a super talented dude but he is a more one dimensional fighter. Fedor can kill you anywhere and I think Royce would have a tough time taking him down. Did you ever see what that guy Sakuraba did to the Gracie clan?

I wish Fedor would come and put Brock Lesnar in his place. Probably won't happen but sure would be cool to see.

nope...what happened? Any utube on it?

The thing I admire most about Royce is that he looks like an average joe. Fedor is down right scary looking and no one in his right mind would want to mess with him. Royce looks like a teddy bear compared to Fedor and I believe many don't get intimidated so much by Gracie and there lies the advantage

Either way, both these guys are good at what they do. I would pay to see them fight

Fedor v. Royce
In a mythical fight no time limits where both dudes at their peaks = royce gets his gi shoved up his pie hole

nope...what happened? Any utube on it?

From his guard, Sakuraba was trying to work a kimura on Royler Gracie.  I mean he was at it for a few moments, so its not like it was a surprise move or anything.  At some point, Sak lets go, they stand up, then Sak goes for it again, and gets it.  Royler's arm dislocates (I think at the elbow), but Royler does not tap out.  Ref stops the fight. Pretty gutsy display by both.  I always liked Royler since his early victory in the WCC back in the year 199X. 

OMG, this thread is bringing it all back.  During undergrad, I used to train at Rickson's.  The classes were great, co-ed.  Mayim Bialik (a neuroscience major) used to roll.  True story hahaha.  Who woulda imagined "Blossom" doing BJJ??   

Here you go Mooch. Not my taste in music but you get the idea. He pretty much destroyed every Gracie they threw at him.

ever see the Royce / Kimo fight?

Yes....Are you nuts? Fedor has short hair.....whats royce gonna do with no pony tail to pull    
Joking.....somewhat.  I like Royce but there would be no fight between him and most of todays fighters.....especially not Fedor (who's background is in sambo<thats grappling brother).  

Great topic...Fedro is a freaking animal...my dad is a huge Gracie fan...and that last dude Kuzushi doing those double footed stomps, he must have nads of steel!!!

Book marked this to show my pa...we view UFC,WEC togther he will get a kick out of this post...thanks guys...

I see a lot of kicking oppentants on the ground/back of head...that wouldn't be allowed nowadays...in a few of the fights highlighted-guy is obviously out of it, and the ref isn't even paying attention!!! damn what all out wars...

And again FEDRO is an ANIMAL...

Those highlights are from Pride Fighting Championships. Their rules allowed stomps, knees to the head of a downed oponent, and SOCCER KICKS!! But for some reason elbows were not allowed...lol.
