DREAM: Still looking for someone to fight Alexander Emelianenko

[Warchief]

DREAM has reported that they are still trying to set up a fight for Alexander Emelianenko. It is no secret that Alexander Emelianenko is in negociations with DREAM as they already tried to set up a fight for him with Mark Hunt. However, Mark Hunt was able to make the call as he said it would be tough of a fight with little time to train.

As Quoted by Mark Hunt:

Now that the K1 thing is out of the way it's all good baby: all MMA and MMA only. These guys (DREAM) want me to fight Aleksander (Emelianeko) in about three weeks time on May 11th! I was like no way because it's too short a time with no training. I don't want risk fighting like that. But if they compensate me enough for taking that risk then it's all good and I?ll fight. The money has to be right. DREAM plan was to see how Fedor (Emelianeko) goes and when and if he wins the DREAM title, and then I will fight him

I really don't think so...without stirring up the Randy vs. UFC shit, the issue with Randy is that he claims that he just wants to fight the best.

If he won't fight Nog because he's "not worthy", why would he fight Aleks?

I'm sure Monson would take the fight.lol

No. Fedor is the only fight that "makes sense," remember?

(Note: the eyes rolling is directed at Randy, not you, lewis!)

No, No and No! Randy isn't fighting anyone except Fedor. Randy is overrated and he realizes that his value will never be higher than it is right now. I believe this is why he won't fight Nog. He would lose and he's aware of that. Aleks would be a very tough fight for him and he'd probably lose. Too much risk when he's looking for a huge payday with Fedor.

I'm not sure why Hunt thinks he's the guy to get Fedor next. Fedor has already beat him and there are bigger fights out there. I like Hunt, but he's not at the top of anything and he acts like everyone should be pursuing fights with him or that top 10 guys need to beat some other top 10 guy to earn a shot with him. He's really only beat Cro Cop. Wandy got screwed in their fight and Hunt outweighed him by over 100 lbs. Aleks is a big guy and would probably KO him. He only does well against small guys.

Maybe I'm reading your post wrong but did you say that Aleks would probably KO Hunt?

No sir, you did not read it wrong. I realize Hunts' head is made of steel but I think Aleks could KO him.
