StrikeForce: Fedor vs Rogers

[Malcolm Kelly]

If I was Brett Rogers I would have been really scared at the sight of Fedor coming after me like the Terminator in this picture. By the way, if my sig pic is too big, please let me know and tell me how I can make it smaller. Thanks.

Speaking of the Terminator, here is FLYING T-FEDOR 2.0

Fedor is not refined in his striking ability at all. He throws loopy punches which could easily be countered if Rogers would have thrown straights and jabs because of his length. Fedor can take an enormous amount of punishment and has the greatest chin I have ever seen in any sport, but opponents have hit him before. Fedor's weakness is definitely his stand up and he doesn't have freakish reaction speed.

He throws looping punches because they're effective. MMA punches are different than boxing ones due to the difference in glove size. And yes, he does have a freakish reaction time. Look at all the punches he slipped in the Arlovski fight. Arlovski barely landed anything.

And you can't say Fedor's weakness is the stand up game when he beat a prime Cro Cop with stand up. Then he KO'd Arlovski and Brett Rogers with the stand up.

I've always thought Mirko was overrated and Rogers was definitely overrated. Arlovsky has a good standing skill set but has a weak chin. He was definitely outboxing Fedor until he got caught. I'm not saying that Fedor is not the best heavyweight in MMA right now, but he doesn't have freakish reaction time as Arlovsky was tagging him over and over. Fedor is very nimble and has an amazing ground game, but he is not an elusive fighter like Silva and Machida. He does have great KO power and the man can take a punch like no other human I've ever seen.

The thing is if you watch his fight with Arlovski in slow motion, Arlovski doesn't land very many of his shots. He slips most of the punches. You have to see it in slow motion though to notice it. I thought Arlovski kept tagging him in real time also.

Your right. Rewatched that fight in slow motion just now. I still stand by my original statement about Fedor not being very refined with his stand up. He is the best heavyweight in MMA without a doubt, but his stand up can get a little sloppy at times.

Fair enough.

sloppy enough to decapitate a man. in case you didn't know Brett Rogers was mudered by Fedor. the fight seriously was on a 15 minute tape delay(I'm serious about the delay obviously not about the gif)

 

[Hoofbite]

That's pretty funny

Haha. I was just about to post that gif.

Here's another gif.

yo Malcom, lose the gif in your sig cause it slows down the page and once a mod see's it they will get rid of it cause they're not allowed in sigs.
