I'm really surprised they are talking about Vitor Belfort replacing him. He's a helluva puncher, but this is Fedor we're talking about. :rolleyes:

That sucks it would have been a good fight. I think Vitor is way too small to fight Fedor. Lashley is too inexperienced. I would like to see him fight Overeem.

When did they fight the first time?

Man, my boy Josh just can't stay off the juice. This kind of thing could be crippling for a promotion like Affliction. They don't have the bench to replace Barnett and they don't run the number of events to push a crappy card on the fans because there are better ones coming up. Maybe Fedor could fight both Vitor and Lashley? I've been sitting on the fence with this one anyway, but I'm sure not going to pay to watch Fedor knock out Mark Hunt!

Haha, sorry about that, I was just being facetious, I should have worded it differently ...I meant to say it as if I had heard there was going to be one and I forgot when it was supposed to take place :biggrin:

I don't know if the HW division is just really weak right now or if Fedor is just that good, but the only guys I want to see fight him are Barnett, Overeem, and the much hated Lesnar. Barnett and Overeem obviously have the skills along with the physicality needed to give Fedor a tough fight while Lesnar is not very experienced, but physically a beast. He may give Fedor fits just from being so big, strong, fast, and agile not to mention a great wrestler. Then again Fedor might just knock him out or submit him without breaking a sweat or blinking.
