Cool. I'm a big fan of Fedor.

 

there are plenty of guys in this world that i'm intimated by, but there is only one that i can honestly say that i fear with a passion....and that man is named Fedor!!!

 

Fedor Emelianenko is practically automated ... and to think Kevin Randleman calls himself 'indestructible' pfffffft!

 

Have to two of them ever fought each other? And who won if they did? And where could I see the fight?

 

They sure have, at Pride: Critical Countdown 2004. The announcers are Mauro Ranallo, Bas Rutten, and Quinton "Rampage" Jackson. I won't tell you who won, but I suppose you could look it up, if you wanted to spoil it for yourself.

 

There was an episode of "Pros vs. Joes" that featured Jose Canseco, Michael Irvin, Kevin Willis, and Randy Couture. The 'Joes' were talkin' trash about all of the athletes, except for Couture. I think they genuinely nervous about him. Personally, I'd be totally pumped to go a round with Randy or Fedor.

 

It is so hard to see contact with the knockout against Arlovski, but he dropped like a stone. He looked like he almost jumped into Fedor's fist.

 

In the replays of the Emelianenko VS Arlovski you can see him get caught right on the side of the jaw. Just a galncing blow, but you can see it. It highlights the fact the Andrei is a powerful fighter with a glass jaw. And the Emelianenko VS Randleman fight was a great battle. Definitely worth watching.

 

Yeah I see he get caught, but it really didn't seem like much of a punch. It's hard to believe he got knocked out from that, so you're right in that he A) has a glass jaw or B) there was way more to the punch than was visible.

I saw the Randleman/Emelianenko fight on YouTube. I heard that Emelianenko coming to the UFC is probably not going to happen either.

 

Some of the most devastating knockouts look like they barely make contact at all. The fist breezes through the chin so smoothly that it almost looks like it misses. Chuck Liddell on Vernon White, for example.

Blows to the chin, the temple, and right behind the ear are more likely to cause a knockout than a punch flush to the face or the side of the head.

The reason blows to the temple or the chin are so devastating is that they torque the head really sharply, which delivers a sharp shock to the brain stem. (a punch right behind the ear shocks the brain stem as well.)

Knockouts happen when your head gets jolted sharply. And if you hit somebody right on the point of the chin, it doesn't take a lot of contact to deliver a serious jolt. If you look at Dan Henderson knocking out Michael Bisping last month, he blasted him... but it's not that he made a ton of contact, it's that he it him in a way that snapped Bisping's head halfway around.

 

fedor made the wrong move signing with strikeforce. M1 is a greedy fuckin company. In the long run Fedor would have made more money and had more exposure fighting for the UFC. Once strikeforce folds, which it will, fedor will fight for the UFC but for less money.

 

Fucking lethal knees from kevin at 1.45. Fedor's submission abilities are unreal!

 

Dude, the odds of you ever meeting -- let along having to fight -- Fedor are slim to none, so your "fear" is a little silly to say the least. It's like someone being afraid of toilet paper.
