fedor is the best in the world and these dumbass people cant even spell his name
the translator is making up like half of the stuff he says
If Fedor attempted to speak english he would sound like Borat.
He is the best fighter ever!
Go go Fedor u are proud of all Slavic countries!
You are a dumbass.
“It doesn’t matter what a great role model does for the exception of illegal activities…..”
What about Dana? He doesn’t do anything illegal.
Look, Fedor is great but he can’t be my role model. Only blue-collar fags like yourself would look up to an MMA fighter as a role model.
@wonggfan …you don’t make any sense and never respond to my points directly.
It doesn’t matter what a great role model does for the exception of illegal activities…..its how he handles himself outside the ring.
He is the best at what he does so naturally kids will look up to him as they do so he is a great role model for them!
You are an idiot!
fuck you wonggfan mother fucker .fedor is the best !!! smile from Serbia
Fedor is a great role model???
I think in your own little world MMA fighters are good role models.
I love MMA and I have tons of respect for these guys. But I would never say they are my role model.
It’s really sad that your role model is an MMA fighter.
Fedor is a dominant champ. And he is no way insecure about his position. Only insecure contenders like Mir or Tito would talk shit.
Umm..I never said he is not a good human being because he got divorced. You are too dumb to realize that no one would make such a stupid argument.
I was refuting your point. Namely that Fedor is a good human being because you somehow believe the image portrayed by him.
I don’t know if he is a good person. And I would never say anyone is a good person unless I know the dude.
So..I think it it is you that should not assume anything.
Learn to reason properly. It will help you in your life.
Also citing divorce rate in US to refute the point that divorces are bad is utter stupidity.
Again, I don’t think divorce is always bad. I think having an affair is bad. And I don’t know if Fedor had an affair. But the circumstances are little suspicious.
Whole27…you need to learn to reason logically. Seriously, do you even have a college degree?
@wonggfan ….lmao…because he got a divorce he is not a good human being?? lol
the divorce rate in the US is over 50%!
You have no idea why fedor and his ex wife broke up…no idea! Don’t assume u know.
People change over time. Fedor is obviously a great role model. He never talks trash about his opponents and only says good things about everyone. He is the best at what he does and does it with class.
Role model and a human being?
You only know what is shown to you by Fedor’s public image engineering.
He dumped his wife for a new woman after he became sucessful. And yes his wife supported him when he was a struggling fighter.
Fedor is a good fighter and his very humble. But saying that he is a role model and a good human being is retarded.
are you saying Russians are the best? Russians were never the best and it is a 3rd world country by some standards.
Stop spreading nationalistic bullshit. There is a difference between celebrating 4th of july and joining KKK.
takoi spakoinii kagda obseaetsa, a v boiu takoi takticinii!!! dai Boh tebe zdarovie i vsego nailutsevo…
@jwang604 true!!!
i would do the same
fedor go to ufc pls
i just love this guys disposition
STOP asking for the UFC ! he don’t care fighting that weight lifters
@MitchelWeaver …AHHHHHHHHHH, I LOVE THIS GUY!
TO SAY HE IS NOT THE GREATEST EVER NOT ONLY AS A FIGHTER BUT AS A ROLE MODEL AND HUMAN BEING IS TO NOT KNOW WHAT THE HELL YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT!!!
RUSSIANS THE BEST
“I dont know how a man as calm as him can be so dangerous inside the ring”
Winning in MMA is 90% mental, and Fedor’s mind is like a carefully sharpened… tank.
Seriously, though, all the top MMA athletes have one thing in common: calm. None of the fighters who do the hype and testosterone-adrenaline-rage crap ever make it far in the sport, they just make mistakes or gas out. Calm allows you to push much harder and faster, not wasting energy on bodily chemical dumps.
They obviously had a typo in there from how they meant to spell it, but it should be noted that there is no “correct way” to spell his name in English, as it is a name written in Cyrillic (Russian alphabet).
All other versions of his name are transliterations to English, and therefore all just as incorrect as one another.
His name is pronounced part way between “feo-dore” and “fy-oder” (not Fed-ore or Fay-dore), so Yemellyanenko Fyoder would be around closest for a transliteration.
Fedor is a Zen Master.
