who has he fought that was quality? 

Heath Herring
Nogueria
Mark Coleman
Mirko Filipovic
Mark Hunt
Matt Lindland
Andre Arlovski
Tim Silvia...


I do not think Randleman and Goodrich are as good as these, but they are not freaks or chumps.

Yea, that was the guys second career MMA fight, clearly a worthy opponent of fedor. He did get his MMA record back to 2-2 after his recent victory over Jose Canseco.

Hmmm lets see how wrong you are.
1. Fedor has one loss
2. He never fought Canseco
It is blatantly ovious with your recent video post and lack of knowledge that you are just talking shit and trolling about MMA.

Tim Sylvia sucks.  Matt lindland is a 185lber. Yea, he is good...in his weighclass.

Mark Hunt?  lol, 5-6 MMA record.
Mark Coleman 39 years old when he fought fedor.  4-5 in his last 9 fights.

Sylvia was heavyweight champion so he is not a chump. Lindland weighed 218 for the fight.
Coleman was a good fighter, not great, but good. Here is his last nine fights.

Nt exactly a bunch of chumps Coleman fought. The rest you cannot touch with even with your obvious bias.
Your whole premise was that Fedor has fought no one but "freaks and chumps". I have shown that he has fought more than a few quality opponents to include someone who has held the belt.

The only way we will know is if and when Dana signs him to fight Lesner. On a side note Fedor fought Randleman who is incredibly strong and is a collegiate champion wrestler. Sounds a lot like Lesner, and Fedor submitted him. I have no doubt that Fedor and Lesner will match up will together.

you are really comparing randleman to lesnar. Lesnar needs to cut to get under 265 and Randleman fights in the under 205 weight class. 
Sylvia has lost 4 of his last 5 fights, sounds like he sucks.
Lindland weighing 218 for the fight is irrevelant, he fights in 185lb class.  He probably had to put on water weight just to weigh in legally.

You can keep trying to pick apart individual fighters apart, but the turth is this. You have repeatedly said Fedor has only fought chumps, freaks, and old fat asses, when in fact he has fought quality opponents, and is considered by his peers to be one of the best fighters period, not just in his class. Your original statements or off base and factually incorrect, and all your nitpicking will not change that.

So, Dana White's announcement came yesterday, and it had to do with getting Tito Ortiz back as well as a few other guys.  ...the big news (or lack of news) was that it's still a no-go with Fedor.  Fedor wants a co-promotion.  Dana White likened it to Brett Favre coming to the NFL, but only if the NFL gave him half.

And while I do think that White has a point, this is exactly why he's a hack as a businessman.  You don't openly talk about deals at that level.  It's bad business, and if anything, it's going to cause a pissing match between him and Fedor, making a deal in the future even harder.  Also, his quote is ridiculous and he says "shit" and "fuck", which is totally unprofessional for a guy at his level, when speaking to media.
