Fedor should take it right to the ground and go for the armbar.

I think people are underestimating Fedor.

Im genuinely curious what will happen.  

My old pride boner is telling me fedor will destroy, but the rest of me isnt quite as confident.

Good fight

It's a good fight, and by no means a "stupid" or "random" fight but it came out of left field. Fedor vs Lashley has been building for a while, that fight would have made more sense but this is a legitimate Heavyweight Matchup.

Has it been officailly confirmed that Fedor is on the Bellator Roster?

Why would Lashley had made more sense?  He not very good at all, and he has fought cans, his entire career.  Not sure how that fight would make more sense then Mitrione? Who is arguably a top 10 heavy weight. Lashley would be lucky if he was a top 40 heavy weight, in all honesty.

If the Fedor that fought Maldonado shows up, Mitrione will knock him out.

it's the fight everyone wants

It waa talke about in Strikeforce, it was talked about in affliction, Lashley called his comeback before he announced it and said he wanted the fight. He recently called for it again. It's a fight a long time coming. With hype and storyline already set.

*It's the fight nobody wants.

There you go bud, fixed it for ya.

Anyways, I think Mitrione would run through Fedor. If Flabio can knock Fedor out like he did... Meathead can certainly do it.

This is a tough one to pick if it happens. Fedor is shot at this point and Mitrione could certainly KO him but Mitrione getting taken down is typically an automatic loss.

But honestly the Fabio fight made my whole opinion about Fedor's comeback change. I feel like at this point the best thing Fedor could do would be to retire or take freakshow fights in Japan for the sweet yakuza money.

If Fedor does lose, then he should definitely retire.
