I honestly think Fedor should just go out there and headhunt the second the ref waves it on. Like, super aggressively. If bader is going to lose, it's going to be in the first half of the first by a big punch. He's kind of like Cowboy in that he's a slow starter but once he gets into a groove he's very tough to beat. Fedor cannot hope to win over the distance.

That's kinda what I meant by Bader has more of a shot LOSING, Than Fedor has of WINNING. The average person would say well, of course. One has to win / lose. If one wins, the other obviously loses. What I'm saying is that, If the fight goes the distance, Bader already won. There's Nooo chance Fedor wins by Decision. I'd honestly question Bader for throwing the fight If Fedor won by decision.  That's what I meant. Bader has a better chance losing the fight, in any manner, than Fedor has of winning the fight.. In any manner. I dnt know if I'd give Fedor the clear advantage over Bader, in any department. Maybe, AND A HUGE MAYBE to the power. But to go against that, Bader has a chin. He can take a serious shot. Annnd he's super durable. I just dnt see Fedor hurting Bader to get the KO. But that's just me. Annnd I understand, that it only takes that one shot. Either the one behind the ear, or the one you dnt see coming. They both will ruin your life.

@bradthom I think Fedor & Bader both want to finish early. I expect fireworks in round 1.
 I'll be betting Fedor gets the better of bader by keeping distance and letting bader be the aggressor and catching him as he comes in or counter punching bader after or in the middle of baders attack.
I also agree the longer it goes the more it favors bader grinding out a decision. And there is always a chance bader catches fedor first. Whoever gets off first wins in this one. That's what I think.

Emelianenko vs. Bader
Fedor Emelianenko, TKO, R1
To be perfectly honest, Bader will probably win. He's at his physical peak while Fedor's career has reached it's twilight, but ffs, do you really expect me to pick against The Last Emperor? Fedor by 1st round KO.

I'm surprise to see how many of you think Fedor could win. Best win on Fedor resume are Hunt & Arlovsky. That was 9 years ago. Now he is old and get drop first punch by guy like Mitrionne.


I think Bader can fight fedor only striking and still knock him out like he does with Latiffi.

@hyrm mittrione and fedor both hit each other simultaneously in that fight. And mittrione is a south paw boxer which Is weird for an orthodox stance like fedor. both guys have got heavyweight power.

5dimes is showing Hager at +500, it has to be a mistake, but if I bet on him will I actually get those odds or can they cancel my bet since it's clearly wrong and should be somewhere between -500 to -800.

Anyone ever been through a situation like this?
