Dana White keeps calling Fedor a farce but this guy is the best hw in the world and has beat up ur current world champ (nog) baddd a couple times. It wasn't even close. He calls Randy the best hw, because he beat sylvia (who was finished by nog) and because he beat gonzaga (a person who dana white said no one heard of until beating CC)? The fact is Randy did look really good in those fights but he hasn't beat great competition either! Beating Sylvia and GG makes you #1 suddenly?
If he beats Nog... I'll give him credibility but I hope Nog submits him in the first round, so Dana can stop praising randy so much. The fact is Randy would be one mistake away from being submitted if he fights Nog.
The thing I do agree with Dana though is when he said Sylvia let Randy have the opportunity to fight for the title, so the least Randy can do is show the same respect and courtesy to Nog and fight him in return.

Nog finished one of the top HWs in the UFC in beating Sylvia (Randy really being the only one ranked above him).
I know it is MMA math... but MMA math works in Fedor's case.. he has beaten every top ten fighter he ever faced (and everyone else he has ever faced for that matter)
Hmm, Randy is the best HW in the world (16-8 record)?
Calls Fedor a farce and says his last worthy opponent was Cro Cop, yeah Mark Hunt wasn't ranked in the top 10 at the time or anything was he?
Fedor beat Cro Cop and Cro Cop just lost to 2 guys no ones heard of, yet Dana White tried to deem Kongo as the next big thing at HW and Gonzaga was shark food for Cro Cop, the guy Dana White went out and handed the highest paying contract in UFC history via a base salary of $350,000 per fight with a supposed multi-million dollar signing bonus.
And since when does it matter who's heard of you? It's easy to see skills. Fedor was a nobody comig into the HErring fight and no one picked him to win. Nog was a nobody coming into the Coleman fight and no one picked him to win.
Dana White is just very bitter because he thought getting Cro Cop would yield more PPV buys than Fedor so he went after him instead of Fedor and it backfired horribly since his multi-million dollar investment is 1-2 and has been fightting with no heart in all 3 of his UFC fights.

I love to see Randy vs. Nog, but I don't think Randy wants it, it a bad match-up for him.
I don't think Couture can stop Nog on the feet or ground, I see Nog subbing Randy of win a close decision.
If Dana really wants to prove that Fedor is a farce then do a cross-promotion just like they were going to do with liddell-silva in 2006 or when liddell entered in the grand prix in 2003. I think even M1 said that they would do it in the octagon. Basically, if Randy is beaten by a guy from another organization, that kills the credibilty of the hw division because randy was considered the top guy..so i can see why dana doesn't wanna do that. However, stop calling Fedor a farce.
I hate how Dana thinks that Mark hunt is not a worthy opponent. He was top 10 when they fought. He calls him just a kick boxer? what the fuk do u call kongo then? Mark hunt showed better ground skills in the fedor match than kongo did in any of his matches. Plus CC is also kick boxer.. .why did Dana sign him? What do you call Sylvia? does he fight on the ground?
