MMA legend and long-time Heavyweight champ of Pride Fighting Championship taught an MMA master class in Moscow recently and RT Sport News was there with a camera and a translator. Some of Fedor's comments:
To students: "Look this is something like what I did against Randleman (demonstrates kimura).
To students: "This is how is worked against Sylvia and Fujita. You have to slide your hand in and lock it (demonstrates rear naked choke).
On teaching the class: "I enjoyed this master class very much. I could see that many of them were skilled enough. Some of them even compete themselves. Because of that it's been very entertaining for me.
On the potential for Russian MMA: "Russia has a lot of intelligent fighters who are very strong mentally. That's how they're special.
On coming out of retirement: "I don't think so. Only if God tells me to come back. No other way."
