without Fedor, Affliction 2 might be missing the magic that Affliction Banned had. Hand injury? That sounds like BS.

fedor and barnett have yet to fight. Also I dont think anyone can really challenge the last emperor. He is just TOO good.

I thought they were keeping Randy vs Fedor secret. Is fedor going to compete for M-1 Global for new years?

Fedor is the man.

i actually thought that tim silvia would be the toughest test so far for Fedor and we see how that ended up. I wanted to see Fedor fight in the next event but it may work out better this way. If AA beats Barnett he will be pumped to fight Fedor. But Fedor and Barnett would be great to see because Barnett seems to have no fear in the ring. Does anyone know if Fedor and Barnett have fought before in the past?

the winner will prolly end up fighting fedor at the next card neway….i dont reallly think that andrei matches up with fedor newhere…he has a chance standing up but it’s not that good of a chance….bottom line is fedor is a beast and not even coutoure can beat him…he might get the closest but i just dont see it happening

I think Arlovski is a challenge for any heavyweight right now. I think he matches up well with Fedor in every aspect except on the ground where he would have to work some more jitz. But yeah, I don’t think AA needs a tune-up, I really thought this match was great for him and Fedor. I hope they do land Barnett as an opponent.

Yeah I want to watch this fight too. Great points about giving AA another fight to tune-up some more. Barnett sounds like a great fill-in until Fedor is healed up.

i don’t think AA would last with fedor this soon. AA needs to build that confidence back up first. i personally would like to see barnett vs fedor… since barnett did whoop his brother Aleks a few years back. but AA-barnett would still be exciting too.
