I personally don't train any MMA disciplines, so this was interesting to read. I think Fedor is going to be hit harder than he has been hit in a long time. Rogers power and size will be too much. Rogers KO Rd 2. Seems that even though the MMA community is extremely competitive, there is also a close knit support and respect.

If by some stroke of luck Rogers wins this fight it will cripple strikeforces hw division. Fedor is there only drawing card at hw with overeem never fighting for them and rogers just doesn't have the drawing power to make a main event or ppv buys in my opinion. But again good luck to him we will se if he lasts longer in the ring with Fedor then it takes to do the fighter intro's, I don't think it will. Fedor armbar round 1 within 2 minutes Good for Rogers for taking his training seriously but lets face it he has a snowballs chance in hell of beating Fedor.

Look forward to seeing more articles from you. I know everybody that watches mma that im friends with(and who care about the fight) is rooting for Rogers. Myself included. GnP on Fedor works(if your a lot bigger), and he's prone to cut. Elbows, Elbows, Elbows! Hope all is going well in training Mike. Look forward to seeing more articles from you.

Fedor, who just got married, is probably back to training with the same group of guys at his gym and maybe Mousasi is helping. Didn't Bret make several comments about he never studied Fedor or watched any of his fights and that he doesn't feel like there is a need because he is going to do what he does. Seems to me he has just surrounded himself with a group of completely focused trainers who are looking to cash in on nocking the king off his thrown. I am interested in hearing about what all these different camps of guys are saying about the training and who they think will win. I know that even when Randy has helped people train for a fight he has still stuck to his gut when picking a winner, almost as if he is separating friends from business. What are these guys going to say?
