    Looks like it might be Fedor vs. Monson.. (according to Jeff)

    Jeff Monson has the tools to upset anyone, I am going to look forward to this fight.


    Jeff Monson Possibly Facing Fedor Emelianenko
    Dann Stupp, MMAjunkie.com
    October 29, 2007

    Ten-year MMA veteran and former UFC fighter Jeff Monson (23-7 MMA, 4-3 UFC) says he may be the first fighter to face noted heavyweight Fedor Emelianenko (26-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC) under the M-1 Global banner.

    Monson confirmed that he's in talks with M-1 Global and that there's a "very good possibility" that he'll fight Emelianenko in his first fight with the organization. During Monday's press conference, Cox said that Emelianenko would headline their first event. A date hasn't been announced for the event, though M-1 officials believe it'll happen as soon as February.

    Monson is indeed a brute, but I'll take Fedor. But then I always take Fedor.

    Monson is swole for sure but his standup isn't anywhere near being up to the task of taking on Fedor though if he could keep it on the ground he may have a chance. of course.. that goes for every really good ground guy.. and, unfortunately for them, it's tough to keep Fedor on the ground when he knows he can stand up and pummel the CRAP outta you's

    I say Fedor KO's 2nd round (in 5 min/rounds)

    Monson is a beast, but he couldn't even count on his grappling skills against Silvia.......

    I like Monson but I personally dont think his skills even compare to Fedors... I really think Fedor wins on the ground too.
