great great match up.
Hers the full fight card.................
Wanderlei Silva vs Ricardo Arona
Alistair Overeem vs Mauricio Rua
Fedor Emelianenko vs Mirko Filipovic
Igor Vovchanchyn vs Kazuhiro Nakamura
Hidehiko Yoshida vs Tank Abbott
when is the fight, I'd like to order it
It will air on August 29th, The ppv is packed with some amazing fights.
Did anyone see Tank KO Cabbage? How do you think he'll do in his fight?
Has much has i love Tank for is entertainement value i cant see him win in any way in this fight. Yoshida will bring him down like he did with Mark Hunt and he will submit him.
Tank knocked out Cabbage at Rumble on the Rock, but Cabbage is another brawler with no talent.
I have a feeling that Arona will not get knocked down by Wandy, i just cant wait to see this fight.
Alistair Overeem vs Mauricio Rua is gonna bang YEAH
Kimbo is going to make a surprise appearance and KO every contestant then slap the ref. and the man/men producing the show..
Whoa!!!!! I have to see this. Every fight looks like it will be awesome.
Also, CroCop will own Fedor. ;)
Dont count Fedor out just yet, Cro Cop is bad, he is very violent and he can bang, he is the new sensation sort to speak.
Fedor has unique takedowns, he throws a flurry of punches at you then the takedown.
If Fedor stands he is dead but if he takes it too the ground he got some sick Groud and Pound.
On the other hand Cro Cop has been training a lot on the ground so..........
I have much respect for Fedor and think he is an awesome fighter! I just believe that CroCop is too damn powerful for him. We'll see. :) I can't wait!Quote:

Cro Cop couldnt beat Nogueira and Fedor whipped Nog's ass 3 times.
All Fedor has to do is not get kicked in the head and its on.
Cro Cop has gone to decision many times.
He has 2 weapons head kick and sprawl.
MMA doesnt work that way, just because Nog beat Crocop and Fedor beat nogeira that doesnt mean Fedor > CrocopQuote:

That was a while back and Crocop is by far the fastest improving MMA fghter ever, coming from pure standup fighting he has had the best success of all the K1 fighters that came to pride, after losing to randelmen via unexpected punch, Crocop is now a very cautious and very very strong overall fighter. He would beat Nog if 9 out of 10 times if they fought now.
Not taking anything away from Fedor, he is without a doubt the proven, undisputed best heavyweght who never lost except a freak-cut incident a long time ago. He is smarter than any fighter and very very sneaky, his punches can rock a bear and he knows ground attack!! the reason he whooped NOG 3 times is because fedor has perfect submission escape!! thats why nog never managed to catch him n anything. Nog always gets pounded on but eventually catches the big guy at the end, but in this case he can never catch fedor so he just gets pounded on!! and loses!!
Crocop: Continuously improving, super accurate striker, very strong/can push away from takedowns , very strong mentaly at this point in his career
Fedor: All around excellence, very intelligent, doesnt feel pain, but confidence a lttle down in this fight because his belt is on the line and upsets can happen, saw his brother and teamate both get KO's by crocop,
anything can happen!! i bet kimbo does jump in and ruin the fight
The PPV is the 29th?? That would be a monday...is that correct??
Hey Im a huge fan of Cro Cop, and I would like to see him win but honestly if I were to put odds on it I would have to give it to Fedor. Hes a solid well rounded and proven fighter and can bang it out with the best of them...with that being said though...its always and exciting fight when Crop Cop is on the card cause that high kick can drop anyone on anygiven day... I think alot will depend on the ref too...as to whether he will be quick to stand them up or not...the Jap. refs tend to be partial from one match to another...none the less been waiting a long time for this fight..got my tickets already!!!
tank can easily get that one punch in and very possibly end the fight... unlikely but very possible! Its just that the man is too old now, probably not in shape, and not as strong!! but, by far the best to watch!!Quote:
