DreamFighters.com has learned that Fedor Emelianenko has just recently made public his next fight with Affliction. Affliction, has yet to confirm, nor the other fighting party, but this comes from the mouth of Fedor Emelianenko.


The next Aflliction event is being prepared for November but we are trying to move it to October so I can have enough time to prepare for my other fight in Dream around December (NYE)''. For his next opponent, Fedor has been clear: It will be Andrei Arlovski. I still don't know who I am goign to fight in Dream ("Probally Mirko Crocop"), but I plan to fight Josh Barnett in March in USA.


Fedor has said:My next opponent is Andrei Arlovski

I think matchup wise this will last more than the 36 seconds, but possibly not by much.

[robdog]

Fedor by vicious GnP

71 seconds.

AA better go for it in this fight. If he's tentative, he'll lose for sure. His best chance is to try and KO/stun Fedor or go down swinging IMO.

[AE14]

71 seconds.

I am not going any higher than 55 seconds

The only heavyweight right now who I would have confidence in making it a fight is either Barnett or Nog. Howevber, we all know Nog would lose, and I am not sure how competitive Barnett would be.

So Fedor is gonna fight Arlovski, maybe Mirko, and then Barnett within the next 8 months, awesome. It's gonna be tough for people to complain about him not fighting top competition, but they'll find a way. I'd really rather him fight Kharitonov on NYE. I love Fedor, but I want to see him fight the best. I guess we haven't really seen much of Sergei or Mirko lately, but I think Sergei would give Fedor more trouble. Plus, Fedor already beat Mirko, when Mirko was at his best.

Yup. Barnett and Sergei would give Fedor the most problems, imo. Nog would get owned again, that is just a fight he cant win. He can beat every other heavyweight out there, but he just cant come close to beating Fedor.

[AE14]

the only one with a snowballs chance in hell is Barnett, and I rate that at 10% at best, I am being generous here

[Rodja]

It will be a bad night for AA. I'm glad that Fedor wants to be so active now. I just hope he doesn't get hit by the injury bug at some point again. Perhaps the layoff will be a good thing because it gave his hands time to really heal up and not take such a pounding.

[Mulletsoldier]

I'm sure I'm not the only one disenchanted by a Mirko/Fedya rematch. If this was 2.5 years ago, I would be, but after CC's UFC debacle, he has lost much of his allure, appeal, and with it the anticipation of this matchup.

[KurtisWicked]

If Arlvoski doesn't fix his problem of keeping his hands down when he pushes forward its gonna be a short night. Hell, it probably won't matter.

Yeah, it's ironic when you have chronic hand injuries... because you've beaten so many peoples faces in...

I know man, its such a pain in the a$$:bb3::bruce3:

And you're not even refering to the hand injuries....

Hand injuries???

Agreed. Mirko has a lot to prove before he becomes an "anticipated" fight with Fedor. As of right now, there seems no mystery in who would walk away the winner in that fight.

Ive lost all faith in mirko. He has officially tucked his balls in and walked away from the sport, imo. He is a great striker but he has no heart whatsoever. Fedor would crush his current state in the 1st round.

agreed, it would not last very long. It is a shame for CC, after the Gonbzaga fight he is nowhere near what he once was

I don't agree. A big wrestler with a good TDs and sub defense poses a decent threat to Fedor. I'd have to look back at Josh's TDs to see if it's possible. He may not be able to deal with the speed, though.
