Default fedor to ufc???

anyone know the contract he has with pride, seeing how cro cop and others are all in the ufc, if you want to be the best you pretty much have to jump to ufc to fight the best, anyone think he might jump to ufc

I think Fedor has just signed a 2 year deal thru 08 with Pride.

UFC doesnt really have the best. I mean, besides Chuck, Mirko and maybe Rampage the UFC's bigger division still dont have the depth of big talent that PRide has....I bet that will change over the course of the year, but for now Pride has more of the better fighters. Pride has the top HW with Fedor and they have the top LHW with Shogun, and both of those division are pretty deep.
BUt like i said above....UFC is growing and Pride seems to be on the rocks....so who knows what is in store for '07....i hope ufc aquires more Pride fighters

I agree, If the ufc continues to grow it might look like watching pride in a cage intead of the ring. I agree right now pride still has more depth but hopefully down the road crocop might get a chance to avenge his losses to fedor , hunt and nog. Hopefully shogun or wand would come to the ufc since I doubt they would fight each other and shogun deserves a title shot.

Right now the only way the UFC could have Fedor fight for them is if they held an event in Russia.... Thats the only Loop hole in Fedor's Contract... As far as depth in the biger divisions the UFC is taking a step at a time... Mirko, Vera, Sylvia, AA, and maybe Soon to be Alex E. thats Growing in LHW you got Chucky, Rampage, Tito, Eastman apparently, and Babalu I mean they are growing and will continue to grow.. if the ufc would have signed Mychida that would have been nice as well as Lindland... The UFC is Smart Watch out Pride after losing ur TV deal you might just see pride going under in the next two years...
