Let me just say that Fedor is a Monster,

Just to get that out of the way.

BUT-

Fedors greatest asset is his game plan- thats right I said it- even more than his Sambo or that AWESOME Hairdo, its that GAMEPLAN he comes in with that is the secret to his success.

Tim starts so slow I wonder if he even wakes up 5 minutes before a fight- I mean does he get his first cup of coffee after round 1?

Here is what will give Fedor Problems

Randy is better than it than he is.

Randy is the reason Forrest Beat Rampage- they found a whole in Rampage- even let it slip on TV- Rampages Trainer even SAID they knew the gameplan- and they were going to stop it easily

Hmmm Didn;t work. FG STILL ran the gameplan and took it 5 rounds and won (if you don;t agree with the des- SO?)

Look at the last Fight Fedor Had where he actually took some damage vs the Giant Korean- Fedor went down QUICK, TWICE and absorbed a LOT of shots- and just kept going for an Armbar my 9 year old could avoid- got it and GK Tapped

Randy has done nothing but study Fedor fighting Cans (and Tim)

and if there is a hole there in Fedors Game- Randy will find it.

"Some guys go into a fight and lose all senses... do that against Fedor and you are done. "

Other than the Josh Barnett fight I have NEVER seen Randy not be able to put the fight on pause it seems and change direction.- If you watch the Nog fight- Fedor seemed to do the same thing- but to be honest with you- I don't know if Nog was EVER on top in that fight- He almost never tried to stand with him- and sorry, grabbing onto his foot an trying to pull him down was just a BAD plan by Nog - and other than about 5 triangle attempts- Fedor just got to practice his G&P - and never really even took ANY Damage

You lay 15-25 minutes on Randy- and YOU will have to worry about more than Triangles

Fedor had a great standing fight with Cro-Cop, - Fedor did a great bit of Damage once he backed him into a corner - but thats another story

In my mind that was the LAST good opponent he fought before Timmy

The Last All-American 40+ year old Fedor fought- Coleman- I have no idea what Mark was thinking in that fight- Maybe he thought Fedor might break a hand on his face?

Fedor does not have the Sprawl of Chuck- so Randy will take him down - and RC is not going to be intimidated like Most.

Let me break this down for you, since you didn;t really give me much here.

1a. Randy is the best wrestler that Fedor has seen in the past 8 years,

b. Fedor is NOT going to be the best wrestler Randy has seen in 8 years

2a. Fedor is MORE than willing to go down to the ground-

b. there is no place Randy wants more than the ground

3a. Fedor is quicker than any big man in MMA

b. Randy is USED to being the slower man in the ring

4a. Fedor will take punishment for a better position

b Randy will not over extend himself to put punishment on his opponent, if a looping punch can give up an Armbar- randy is one of a FEW fighters that don;t take the punch.

I'm not saying Randy will beat Fedor easy- or like Anderson Silva vs Rich Franklin

What I am saying is that Randy will wear him out on the ground- and unless Fedor gets a few shots in on Randy going for a takedown- or his sprawl is MUCH better than he has shown

Fedor has not seen round 2 since the Colman fight- and that 40 year old took every punch in Fedors arsenal- and counter punched with his face.

If Randy takes a full round of punches- Fedor is DONE on the ground

Randy Round 4 (strikes)
