Fedor is smiling at Rogers in that one shot because he can see inside his soul.

Wow

Rogers makes Fedor look in tip top shape. He’s not training with Tim Sylvia is he?

I guess promoting rogers isnt the idea behind this shoot. I bet when he was there it went something like this.

After 30+ photos of Fedor they call Rogers
“Ok Mr Grimm we are ready for you, just stand next to Fedor”
click, click, click
“Ok brett now time for your close ups”
click
“ok thats a wrap pack it up”

That size difference has definitely got to turn heads to the non hardcore mma fans. I cant wait to explain to my noobie mma friends how the small russian dude is going to KO this huge black guy

They probably should’ve done this one with the shirts on.

When in doubt

Wear a suit.

no doubt

Rogers has some impressive man boobs though…

I'm the kind of girl who loves to watch a GOOD fight!

i feel like i've seen this in a movie somewhere....

This is like the entire Rocky franchise’s plot all smashed up together into one fight

Fedor is going to wipe the floor with him. You can see it in his smirk.

Someone mentioned the plot of Rocky III and other than being funny, it could happen.

Fedor just had a public workout where he was all smiles, just like Rocky.

Brett is a big black man with a mohawk that kills people with his stand up, like Clubber Lang.

Brett alraedy cut a promo where he will become God by defeating Fedor.

The pieces are there gentlemen.

Well...

except Fedor, even speaking Russian, is easier to understand than Sylvester Stalone.

Are you Kidding me?

I guess I don’t know what “being in shape” is, I suppose. lol.

It does seem like Fedor is in better shape but damn, man! The Size difference between the two is ENORMOUS!! Now I believe The Grimm when he said he would eat his soul….

And to the ones making the Rocky III reference? Clubber Lang(Mr.T) was about the same Height and build as Rocky(Sly) was, with the exception of the Mohawk of Death.

Brett Rogers is more like the african american version of THUNDERLIPS against Rocky.

All in all, it should be a fun fight to watch. I have a feeling that this fight won’t end as quickly as some say it will. I think it might go more than 2 rounds….

And I still think that Brett is going to catch Fedor on the chin just right and then the entire MMA world will be turned upside down.
