Default Who's Next (Or Left) For Fedor?

If he does infact stay with Bodog like the recent reports have been saying who are they gonna throw at him, and will it be somebody worth a damn?

I'd say right now Josh Barnett looks like a good choice for Bodog. He obviously doesn't wanna fight for the UFC/PRIDE merger for whatever reason and this fight could happen anywhere in the world, seeing as how Barnett doesn't want to fight in the States or whatever.

If not him, hopefully Antonio Silva, otherwise I want to see Fedor back in the PRIDE ring or in the octagon for the first time. Give him Barnett and then hopefully we see him fight Chuck and Cro Cop.

Put him in the cage. I think he will get beat there...

I'll say it again, I think Werdum could beat Fedor, he could match Fedors ground game.

I think Fedor's going to have to start fighting two people at once or something.

there are plenty for him to fight in many orgs, i just hope he doesn't get bored of fighting, because that is what will lead to his first loss.

he can fight: AA, Silvia, Werdum, Cro Cop (again), Vera, etc.

Some of those he hasn't fought yet aren't really worthy, but who cares?

Plus, if he is fighting outside his weight class, him verses Chuck would pull huge numbers, though Fedor will most likely make Chuck look foolish.

I'll be honest, I lost some respect for Fedor tonight...he grabbed the ropes multiple times and Matt was controlling him.

He is still the best obviously, I think he'll lose in the next 2 years if he fights someone of caliber like CC, Werdum or Nog.

I know hes considering going with bodog but he's a Pride champion. It would not be a good deal for value and competiton if he were to turn his back to Pride. There's still those matches left who he can face. After seeing Lindland pick him up in ease, he'd have big problems if he were to get in a cage with someone like Randy because basically if Fedor didnt hold the ropes he would of got punched in his brow where it was already bleeding since the first punch and it couldve with that bad cut he had ended his night. After seeing tonight i never noticed Fedor had a problem with the takedown. Ive seen the Randleman slam but I guess no one ever really got into that game against him. He did counter it but he was using the ropes far too much. I know you guys dont think Randys going past Crocop but I think after tonight if the Fedor-Couture match ever happend it'd be horrfic for Fedor especially inside a cage. If you caught the fight tonight or whenver it aired for you guys hopefully you know what i mean but it was thought to be just a minor hole for Fedor to be taking down seemed to be a bigger hole in my oppinion.

Whats left for him is his publicity. The guy needs exposure. Nog, Rampage and CroCop will be huge now that they joined the UFC. US is the biggest market in the world and he deserves exposure for his enormous talent. He needs to come over to the UFC. Nothing else to prove in Pride with all the best HWs in the UFC now.

werdum would be a good fight for him

dont count out CC

Big Nog has a chance but I dont see them fighting again

he can fight randy, AA, monson, barnett, and he can kill sylvia.
