Good stuff. Fedor will always be the GOAT, but I’m hoping for an upset.

Enjoyed that conference call.

PD, how can you root against Fedor. That’s like Philly fans booing Santa Clause. It just isn’t right.

by Coy on Nov 4, 2009 11:46 AM EST reply actions  

It would huge, and Rogers is a blue collar guy that seems pretty humble at this point in his career.

Fedor's striking coach, Alexander Michkov says "Fedor has slowed": "With regard to age, it certainly has an effect," Michkov said. "To some extent, a decrease in high speed performance, but this is offset by experience." "Now the speed, of course, is a little slower, but -- knock on wood -- continues to be enough for Fedor to win," Michkov said. "There's a reduction in speed, but his combination of attacks have grown. And, in my opinion, to date, he remains the fastest heavyweight."

Mike Reilly from Team Bison, Brett Rogers’ head trainer talks Fedor vs. Rogers: PDG: You mentioned that before; that even though none of Brett’s fights had gone to the ground you guys had been working on his ground game extensively. Mike Reilly: ... I think part of the problem in this fight was that our game plan consisted more of the standup game and maybe we should have surprised Fedor with more of an emphasis on the ground game. PDG: So in your opinion did Brett win the first round? Mike Reilly: I definitely believe that he won the first round because there was only two big punches landed and both of them came from Brett. He also controlled the action against the cage and even though Fedor’s Superman Punch got an ovation from the crowd it had no effect on Brett. We controlled the action standing; he got the escape on the ground and landed good punches on the ground. So yes, I believe he won the first round but you never know because lately you don’t know what the judges are watching. You could blindfold three chimps and the scoring would be more accurate. In between rounds I told Brett that he was doing a good job and that Fedor had to of realized he wasn't going to be able to do any damage on the ground. We were definitely very confident going into round two but obviously the fight did not end how we wanted it to. More at punchdrunkgamer.com Strikeforce: Emelianenko vs. Rogers coverage
