    Why have you put "34lbs." on a separate line as if it will be a big factor in the fight? Did you see Fedor- Zuluzinho cyclops

    34 might also be the amount of seconds it takes for Fedor
    to win. WAR FEDOR!

    Well, at a 177lb weight disadvantage, it took 26 seconds for Fedor to dispatch of Zulu, so by my mathematical calculations, at a mere 50lb weight disadvantage, it should take less than 0 seconds.

    Bigfoot - Zulu...

    Yeah, they're both at about the same skill level.

    Did you even know he compiled a 38-0 Vale Tudo record in Brazil? God, you don't know what you're talking about.

    44 pounds was the difference between Silva and Kyle when Silva nearly got finished by a light heavyweight, the weight difference will be no problem for Fedor.

    Exactly the reason i started joking about Zulu. How Mryzyzyyzyzyzyzyz thinks 34lbs will make any difference to Fedor, who has been outweighed in almost all of his fights, is beyond me.

    If Bigfoot can control the distance well, and able to control Fedor on the ground then he can win, he's much more technical fighter than Rogers who gave Fedor problems with his size.


    Fedor is much faster though, and if Bigfoot is not careful the same thing can happen again as in his last fight.


    Im going with Fedor tko rd 1, but it could be a very difficult fight.

    the weight difference is what Bigfoot has going for him in this fight. If he can get on top of Fedor and apply his 50lb weight advantage well then there could be problems. Barnett breaks it down well:

    I think Fedor is gonna want to put on a clinic. I think he'll toy with him for the first 3 to 4 minutes then smash him to pieces. He was looking extra smiley and cuddly in the weigh-ins, that can only spell trouble for Silva.

    Plus, how will Fedor NOT be able to hit that head.

    What I meant when I said that was I know corn syrup is less healthy than real sugar.

    I don't know how you got the idea I was taking about the actual fight.

    Fedor needs to aim for the neck/jawline, caus if he hits any part of that huge dome his hands are done.

    Similar situation to Haye V Valuev, one big shot on that head and Haye broke his hand, Fedor has had trouble with broken hands in the past, hopefully that won't be repeated this time around.

    If your watching the fights on the web tomorrow, make sure to watch the fights in order they happened as the commentator always spoil the results of previous fights.
