"Definitely me. I'm a proud Mexican fighter. Anybody who steps in that ring with me, it's like **** them, I'm gonna beat them. The guy's gonna have to kill me. I think he's an awesome fighter, he's the best. It's not like the movies or TV with the biggest and most muscular guy going out there and he's the baddest guy, it's not always like that. Like Cheick Kongo, I don't look anything like him, but if you got the heart and the fighter spirit, that counts for a lot."
Cain Velasquez answering the question from MMA.Fanhouse, who would win between you and Fedor. (Transcription by MMA Mania) while prepping for Ben Rothwell at UFC 104.

He’s going to get ripped mercilessly for this, but I get the feeling from his answer that he’d say the same of anyone. He’s just a proud, confident guy.
I STILL poop rainbows.

He’d get murdered.

Why
would he get ripped mercilessly for his comments?
He didn’t say anything outrageous he said he’d win what’s he supposed to say I’d get my ass kicked?
He also mentioned Fedor’s the best so this whole thing is much ado about nothing.

Because this is the Internet

And because some people...
feel that there is a double standard in play for comments like “I’m a proud Mexican fighter.” and having tattoos like “Brown Pride”.
Which there kind of is.

He'd get ripped..
for saying something stupid. Instead of guaranteeing victory and making a fool of himself, he could say it would be a good fight, or ‘I believe I have the tools to beat Fedor’.
I guarantee you, no MMA fan worth his salt believes 100% that he’d beat Fedor.

Hispanic isn't an ethnicity.
It points only to country of origin – a spanish speaking one. Spain counts. Brazil doesn’t.
I suspect he’s of mixed European and American Aboriginal stock. That’s his ethnicity.

Sorry, we are going to have to agree to disagree. Hispanic is an ethnicity. I don’t know why you would bring up Portuguese speaking Brazil. Kind of a non sequitur. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hispanic_and_Latino_Americans
Hispanics and Latinos constitute 15.1% of the total United States population, or 45.4 million people,1 forming the second largest ethnic group, after non-Hispanic White Americans (which is also composed of dozens of sub-groups).2 Again, Hispanic and Latino Americans are the largest ethnic minority in the United States; Black Americans, in turn, are the largest racial minority, after White Americans in general (non-Hispanic and Hispanic).[3

I guess every fighter that hasn’t been beaten or is in the mix for a heavyweight title thinks they can beat Fedor. Technically anything can happen in MMA but I seriously doubt that Velasquez could beat Fedor. While he is still improving, Velasquez is just a one dimensional fighter who relies on his world class wrestling and decent ground and pound skills to beat decent opposition. If Fedor and Velasquez fought today I have a feeling it would go very similar to the Fedor vs Kevin Randleman fight. Velasquez would rely on his take downs and ground and pound to win the fight but would ultimately get submitted.

most people would have had there neck broken if that happened to them
fedor knows sambo which teaches how to land when thrown. if you saw the fight on pride you can actually see fedor tuck an relax his neck when he hits the ground. that prevented a broken neck. he then submitted randleman with a kimura.

This begs for a link to the Cracked article
So here it is, courtesy of Seanbaby
Oh, SHIT!
Pride Critical Countdown 2004: Fedor Emelianenko vs. Kevin Randleman
Fedor Emelianenko is a merciless knockout machine that emerged from the ruins of war torn Stalingrad to avenge the angry dead. Kevin Randleman is a wrestler whose body was kidnapped by science and mostly replaced with horse DNA. After an early takedown by Randleman, Fedor scrambled to his feet and gave Randleman his back. It is stupidly inadequate to say that what followed next was the greatest suplex in the suplexiverse.
Randleman brought Fedor up in a perfect arc, jumped off his feet, and trebuchet’ed the weight of both of them directly on the point of Fedor’s head. It was like he was trying to make dinosaurs extinct again. When wheelchair salesmen watch it, their eyeballs turn to dollar signs.
But instead of bravely learning to walk again years later, Fedor swept him, got side control, punched him in the head 18 times, jumped to north-south, and locked in a kimura. All in the span of 45 seconds. For baseball fans, this is like getting your eye knocked out by a fastball, then hitting 16 home runs with one swing.
After the fight, a reporter asked Fedor how he was able to recover from such a devastating throw, and through a translator Fedor explained, "It didn’t affect me. I train to fall great distances." Oh, shit.

I can’t when has Cain performed a throw anywhere near that explosive? Randleman was a physical freak who was probably chemically assisted.

I have to give Cain credit, he’s probably got better sub defence than Randleman, Coleman, or really anyone at Hammerhouse ever did. I still don’t think he’d win though.

Kongo almost finished that fight multiple times and was the closest to a finish until the last 5 seconds of the fight. I wish he tried a flying knee in the first instead of trying to shove Cain down.
As for Cain’s insinuation that Kongo has muscles but no heart and fighting spirit – Kongo was throwing punches from the bottom while he was mounted and sure to lose a UD. The reason he lost that fight wasn’t for lack of effort – it’s just that he isn’t much of a grappler.

if lesnar brought in matt hughes to his camp and he taught lesnar how to best to get.......
his opponents in the crucifix position he could beat fedor. there is no doubt in my mind lesnar could take fedor to the ground. it’s keeping him there thats the problem. if lesnar could get (that is a big could) fedor in crucifix position fedor would have no chance to get a submission. fedor’s face would be twice as bloody as mir’s face was b/c fedor is a bleeder. fight is over. i doubt fight will ever happen b/c fedor’s mangement must know lesnar is just going to get better so the longer he waits the worst it would be for him. vegas actually has a line on the fight if it happens -300 favorite for fedor. +225 for lesnar.

If he ate shots from Fedor like he did from Kongo, it would be a short night for him.
And if he does take Fedor down, he has to stay out of subs, which he hasn’t proven whether he can do or not in his whopping six fights.

I honestly think Gonzaga could, I emphasize could, give Fedor fits.
Don't argue for the sake of arguing....

have you noticed how Gonzaga
folds under pressure?
That’s going to be a big problem against Fedor.

its not like fedor would ever fight him anyway
a moot point. He never fights anyone ever as it is, thats why his legions of fans have to bring up his fights from 5+ years ago constantly.
