you must be kidding, Maite Derouet. There were PLENTY of great fight this year on UFC, and many of them will contest for fights of the year. On bellator we see fighters, which UFC doesn't need anymore, and old men. No thrill on them at all.
sam stone Numbers don t lie, PPV sales are downs for 2 years in a row, pulls out from main events have been more & more frequent, i think the Last 4 PPV have their main and co event changed for the worst..
What an iconic fight, and the way both Mir and Fedor are carrying themselves is commendable. It's also being promoted perfectly, no drama just focused on the fight and the mental preparation leading up to it. I can't wait to watch this clash of champions!
Pride encouraged steroids, the only time Pride fighters failed steroid test was when Pride came to USA (because there was some testing in USA), and that was way before USADA came to UFC, Fedor was never random tested like what USADA does, Baby Fedor aka Kiril Sidelnikov was caught for steroids. They both train together. Lance Armstrong was never tested positive for steroids/EPO. ncache.ilbe.com/files/attach/new/20130807/377678/63187236/1745835218/b9f11ed4cdcf586a3f12ecd29f16bfef.jpg
Bro if Fedor was on steroids than he should get his money back lol physically he’s bear built with fatty tissue, literally the opposite effect of roids
slevinlindsay umm yeah youre dumb if you automatically equate a confederate flag to racism. I never really cared for it, but living in the south i know plenty of non racist people who still have them. Seriously cant be that smart if you automatically think you know what a person is about based on a profile pic.
WTF Bellator, seven minutes? How about you make a full length show and air it on Paramount and RUclips, and maybe help promote the fight. What do you say?
Koubaa Sofien Fedor just needs to keep his chin tucked and he will be fine. However if Frank land an over hand right while the chin is exposed could be a different fight altogether.
Steve What did u just associate technical striking with Frank Mir?! lmao. Thats hilarious dude. He's one of the sloppiest uncoordinated HW strikers ever.
2Fap 2Furious I was meaning on the mitts. But I also think over all Mir is a more technical fighter, and Fedor is more of a tornado you might survive or you might get tossed
both are good fighters and good people and that's most important. Am Russian gonna be cheering Fedor. Should be an interesting fight and hope if he wins he putts sonen back under the rock for all his trash talk viva mma viva Bellator. Salut!
gamessportsandmore it's relevant because fedor isn't in his prime anymore, he isn't what he was. It kinda sad we never got to see him fight in the us during his prime. I completely agree with your comment though, I don't believe fedor was juiced during his tear through pride.
justin fedor isn't in his prime but if fedor had a brain in his head he would know two things: 1) he has alresdy achieved enough and has nothinf left to prove. 2- at his age he can't prove anything even if he wanted to.
relevent because fedor has aged and frank hasnt. some of that is down to his natural size but most is down to the juice. wouldnt shock me to hear sonnen has been back on it
justin How do you know he wasn't juicing? His only legit wins were against Big Nog and Crocop (he got obliterated in the UFC). Fedor mostly worked for Japanese pro-wrestling promoters and shady Russians. They put jobbers and freaks in front of him. That said, the only guy who has something to lose here is Mir. Win or lose, Mir has lost his dignity.
RRR no one is saying that they're still in their prime and this fight should have taken place 12 years ago blah blah. If you are a true mma fan, you are watching this fight.
Get Bellator on 5spike in uk please. You put fight shows on over here too that we cannot watch. Big market here for you too. I’m sure the same people own the channel who own paramount
The more I hear Frank talk the more I like him. He seems like a decent level headed guy. But I'm still rooting for Fedor. It isn't USA vs Russia which it seems some people are making it out to be. I started watching MMA when Pride was around. There Fedor ruled with class and style.
Rigas Bountouris If Mir is in horrible shape, got paid to lay down or to keep the fight on the feet. Emelienanko is a skilled version of Kimbo Slice...
c walker Mir is a good fighter known for his incredible comebacks. However i feel that his stand up has always been a cause for concern. If Mir worked more on his standup hed be a force to be reckoned with ( not that he's not one now ) Regarding Fedor, i think he is the best heavyweight of all time and the most skilled at that. His timing, explosiveness and accuracy with his stand up makes him the GOAT in my eyes. I just cant see Mir winning on the feet, i think Fedor catches him early. With that being said, i hope nothing but the best for both fighters and that they both come out of this fight safe and in good health.
Rigas Bountouris Your assessment of Mir is on a point. However, you're describing Fedor at his prime when he fought for the Japanese pro-wrestling promoters and the shady Russians. His best wins came at the hands of Crocop and Big Nog. The rest of his fights were against washed up, jobbers and freaks. He was a good fighter. GOAT? Not even close to the top 10. Top ten heavyweight? Yes, eight or ninth. The GOAT is GSP by far.
This is gonna be my first Belator fight I purposely watch. My money is on Fedor! Belator should sign Fedor's brother Alexander, got a few good years left in him
A admire a woman who stands by her man the whole way through until the fight , it reminds me of the drag races when I see a man driving and a woman mechanic tending to his car that’s a special relationship and a woman who can make it as safe as she can through the drama , I’m a fan of both, may the best man win , and let the legends collide.
Frank's striking coach kinda concerns me. I feel like he can perhaps be getting poor notions into Frank's head. I worry for him getting hit by a left hook. It just seems like his loose guard will get him
c walker pride and dream isn't legit? Didn't realize the fights with Noguiera, cro cop, Gary goodrich, Mark coleman, Mark hunt, arlovski, Kevin randleman, etc were "not legit". My point was he has more than enough experience to not be "afraid" of going to the ground. Yes mir is super dangerous.
I am more excited for Fedor vs Mir than I am for most UFC fights.
Yeah bro, I'm now in all the way with Bellator because of this fight.
I can not fucking wait!
That is because UFC promise a lots and deliver nothing this year, at least Bellator s fighters don t pull out fights like the spoiled UFC fighters.
Quincy Jones
Adding big names and title on your records ALWAYS improve your legacy speech.
you must be kidding, Maite Derouet. There were PLENTY of great fight this year on UFC, and many of them will contest for fights of the year.
On bellator we see fighters, which UFC doesn't need anymore, and old men. No thrill on them at all.

Bellators countdowns are awesome. I just wish they were longer.
Yeah, wish they were all as long as the sonnen Silva countdown.
Agreed
Nah bro the secret is to give you just not enough so your still hungry.
They got the recipe right.
Michael Hill what are you doing here then fucktard ?
Somebidy can tell me when that fight is gonna be???
2 legends 2 veterans. I've been following these 2 for 14 years.
I wish Most of these dream matches happened 10 years ago
First time I've seen a Bellator countdown, great style, totally different from UFC.
Yeah, I just started watching from episode 1 of this series. Much better than UFC's imo
Fedor playing chess... Frank "clash on clans"
TheFlanker47 When Fedor wins chess it's always with a finish
Frank is one of the best jits guy in the world and with out a dought would be the best hw ever if he didn't get into that motorcycle accident.
ZombieWolf *doubt
If it goes to the ground Frank has a good chance. If they standing up, trading with each other, Fedor has a good chance.
The first one that eats a jab will go to sleep 🤣
both so classy and respectful!
What an iconic fight, and the way both Mir and Fedor are carrying themselves is commendable. It's also being promoted perfectly, no drama just focused on the fight and the mental preparation leading up to it. I can't wait to watch this clash of champions!
I’m excited for this fight. Nice work Bellator
Bro ... Fedor is the most clean fighter in history (no roids like the rest 90% figthers)
Pride encouraged steroids, the only time Pride fighters failed steroid test was when Pride came to USA (because there was some testing in USA), and that was way before USADA came to UFC, Fedor was never random tested like what USADA does, Baby Fedor aka Kiril Sidelnikov was caught for steroids. They both train together. Lance Armstrong was never tested positive for steroids/EPO.

Lance Armstrong is a legend when it comes to passing doping tests.
Your an idiot he was on roofs in pride and that Russian tournament against Maldonado.
Bro if Fedor was on steroids than he should get his money back lol physically he’s bear built with fatty tissue, literally the opposite effect of roids
stjfv01 your e a fucking idiot. No steroids can definetly still leave you fat. There are many different PEDS with many different effects.
I like this format, without any narrator.
Fedor!
nanukbigwithe Russians hate rebels so you should choose Frank Mir. We spit on your flag.
Shut your ass up. Im Russian. We cheer him together in solidarity!
Fedor gona get TKO'd
slevinlindsay umm yeah youre dumb if you automatically equate a confederate flag to racism. I never really cared for it, but living in the south i know plenty of non racist people who still have them.
Seriously cant be that smart if you automatically think you know what a person is about based on a profile pic.
slevinlindsay lol the irony, "hey let me force my racism on you based on your profile pic" what a hypocrite
WTF Bellator, seven minutes? How about you make a full length show and air it on Paramount and RUclips, and maybe help promote the fight. What do you say?
C'mon bro 2min is long enough for any man ;)
So 7 is like a bit of desert too, its perfect.
Frank Mir is extremely well spoken, especially for the depth of conversation he uses to explain things. He should become a promoter.
Great job on these coundowns. Love the dramatic music. 👍
I like the calmness and confidence on Fedor. I hope he wins
That press conference was just like Rocky 4, the American laughing and cracking jokes and the Russian dead serious and confident.
Mir looks slower than my internet
fedor does lol
Koubaa Sofien Fedor just needs to keep his chin tucked and he will be fine. However if Frank land an over hand right while the chin is exposed could be a different fight altogether.
Looool
There will be blood, and it will come from Frank's face. Can't wait
IDK who will win? Fedors punches on the mits looks pretty vicious. Mirs looks more technical.
Steve What did u just associate technical striking with Frank Mir?! lmao. Thats hilarious dude. He's one of the sloppiest uncoordinated HW strikers ever.
One power punch from Fedor and Frank is out. The problem is.... Fedor's chin = one half-strength punch from Frank and Fedor is out.
2Fap 2Furious I was meaning on the mitts. But I also think over all Mir is a more technical fighter, and Fedor is more of a tornado you might survive or you might get tossed
I think Mir by ground and pound.
Is Frank's mirs boxing coach legit????? That little short fat guy?????
both are good fighters and good people and that's most important. Am Russian gonna be cheering Fedor. Should be an interesting fight and hope if he wins he putts sonen back under the rock for all his trash talk viva mma viva Bellator. Salut!
Frank mir in the UFC: "Your not suppose to be in here" - Skyrim-.
They both respect each other so much! I hope those translator translate accurately cuz sometimes they skip some parts of translation...
My heart wants Fedor, but Dam! MIR on that juice!! If he wins you can’t really credit him. He looked older in UFC yet younger now lol
stjfv01 that's relevant because? Everyone was juicing in pride fedor still beat them(granted he might have been a juicer too but highly unlikely).
gamessportsandmore it's relevant because fedor isn't in his prime anymore, he isn't what he was. It kinda sad we never got to see him fight in the us during his prime. I completely agree with your comment though, I don't believe fedor was juiced during his tear through pride.

6:24 buddy Fedor is equally as known for submissions as Frank😂
Not lately. His ground game is pretty weak now. It used to be amazing though.
They are both pass there prime they need to stop fighting its embarrasing.
RRR no one is saying that they're still in their prime and this fight should have taken place 12 years ago blah blah. If you are a true mma fan, you are watching this fight.
Not acurate subtitles for Fedor, but good quality stuff overall. Thanks.
I love both of them!! Legends!
I love these.
Technical note.
The music underneath is too loud
I'm really looking forward to this !!!!
It all goes down tomorrow can't wait
I like Fedor, he doesn’t do a lot of talking. I respect that.
Bellaor does really good prefight programming
That Mir, he has given and received a lot of violence in his time. This fight does not matter. Both are legends.
This really needed more episodes. They did 2 back to back then dropped the ball for a week with nothing. Hype kind of died.
Bellator!! Get these events on uk tv stop neglecting us we are a fighting country
Im pumped for this fight. 2 absolute legends. Also love these countdowns. But you gotta drop Big John hes a lame buzz kill
Just found out this fight is sponsored by Ensure, Depends, and AARP. I'm excited!
Great fight 2 legends even if its about 5 years to late
I really like Fedor and mir so it is hard to watch this fight
No matter what as a real MMA fan I hope that will be a hard and great fight,is there anybody want to watch exciting fight?
You think Fedor watches Jerry Springer???!!!! wtf
Sean MacConnell
With a six pack, a case of Doritos and a tub of Heavenly Hash.
Danny D
Tried to be polite. He looks like he ate a truckload of Doritos.
This is going to be a great fight!
Get Bellator on 5spike in uk please. You put fight shows on over here too that we cannot watch. Big market here for you too. I’m sure the same people own the channel who own paramount
Any one's brand dies in the UFC, goes to Bellator.
5:18 Chubby Asian guy teaching Frank how to fight😂
Kinda cheesy to give Fedor some Jerry Springer shirts... how embarrassing.. Fedor doesn't even know who that is... SMH
The Wedge
They couldn't afford the Salvation Army store. They went dumpster diving instead.
DREAM FIGTHS---
FEDOR VS VELÁSQUEZ
RAMPAGE VS RUA 2
CEJUDO VS CRUZ
ORTIZ VS JONES
RAMPAGE VS ORTIZ
BARNETT VS NGANOU
Fedor stopped evolving long ago Mir has kept getting better although that chin is definitely shot now. Still excited for it.
I like both of these fighters so I am sure I will be sad on Saturday night :-(
Both of them looking good it will be interesting
Very good music !!!
I'm there! I wanna meet the "Guys let's talk about this fight" RUclips predictions guy AKA Worldtravelerman!
Mir always looks like he is hitting a heavy bag in a fight. Like he counts his punches. Never seems to flow to me.
The more I hear Frank talk the more I like him. He seems like a decent level headed guy. But I'm still rooting for Fedor. It isn't USA vs Russia which it seems some people are making it out to be. I started watching MMA when Pride was around. There Fedor ruled with class and style.
I want to see fight Fedor vs CroCop Two Beast !!!
I'd fancy Fedor for the win, but I watched the Maldonado fight, where he got battered around by a LHW cut by the UFC.
Two fucking legends!
I think bellator is doing better than ufc at the moment
Both fighters worthy people because very modest, at the airport there was no crowd, it is very big from their party endurance!
The Winner Is Fedor Emelianenko :) 20 second TKO
This shit is going to be epic.
Fedor wins this one.
Rigas Bountouris
If Mir is in horrible shape, got paid to lay down or to keep the fight on the feet.
Emelienanko is a skilled version of Kimbo Slice...
c walker Mir is a good fighter known for his incredible comebacks. However i feel that his stand up has always been a cause for concern. If Mir worked more on his standup hed be a force to be reckoned with ( not that he's not one now ) Regarding Fedor, i think he is the best heavyweight of all time and the most skilled at that. His timing, explosiveness and accuracy with his stand up makes him the GOAT in my eyes. I just cant see Mir winning on the feet, i think Fedor catches him early.

He was a good fighter. GOAT? Not even close to the top 10. Top ten heavyweight? Yes, eight or ninth.
The GOAT is GSP by far.
Danny D
I have seen all of his fights. He was a good fighter. Just not a great one.
I never drank the Japanese Kool aid.
c walker "Kimbo Slice is similar to Fedor." Opinion immediately discarded.
Fedooooor goat, and bellator 200 Mirko Cro Cop. Thanks bellator
BELLATOR MMA! How do I buy a grey team fedor t-shirt???
I doubt Fedor watches Jerry Springer, what were they thinking, lol
Mir is a good guy!!!
I can't speak for anyone but myself; but damn I want Mir vs. Chael! I think Chael has a great chance to take the crown.
I love Mir, but he's slow, Fedor for the win I'm afraid....but agree, I'm excited and like having Bellator around!
Fedor is the legend of MMA!
This will end bad for mir! But he gets to fight one of the best!
This is gonna be my first Belator fight I purposely watch. My money is on Fedor! Belator should sign Fedor's brother Alexander, got a few good years left in him
A admire a woman who stands by her man the whole way through until the fight , it reminds me of the drag races when I see a man driving and a woman mechanic tending to his car that’s a special relationship and a woman who can make it as safe as she can through the drama , I’m a fan of both, may the best man win , and let the legends collide.
When did SHOOTER MCCGAVIN BECOME AN MMA COACH?
it sucks how one of them has to lose tonight
You have very important fight. Well il take two train each +12 Hour long drive :D Nicely done Fedor :D hope everything works out well for him
where are the other 2 episodes??
THE LAST EMPEROR.
Frank's striking coach kinda concerns me. I feel like he can perhaps be getting poor notions into Frank's head. I worry for him getting hit by a left hook. It just seems like his loose guard will get him
WAR FEDOR!!!! Please Lord grant us a victory for the Last Emperor
Федя,мы с тобой!
Ivan Yurievich
Durak!
If it passes the first round i would be in shock someone pulls guard or someone goes 😪
Do you have to pay to watch this fight?
Should be on a pay-per-view
why is a manager holding mitts for fedor?? I think old frankies got this...
Fedor could've been a shreded light heavyweight with that heavyweight KO power
i cant see frank winning but i couldnt see fedor jumping head first into a triangle or walking into a haymaker in first 30 seconds.
Does anyone know what song is playing in the background?
Frank mir playing 12 to 14 hours a day that retarted game clash of clans. His wife,childrens and his fans must be proud
seein the weight Mir shed....he's still serious, he will win
Can't. Wait.
Frank Mir is always trying to sound all philosophical, I'ma laugh if his calm ass gets put to sleep
Bro if only they fought at their prime🔥, either way someone's getting smeared
I really like Frank and Fedor
Roy Nelson comments on this fight in this clip recorded today: ruclips.net/video/xhGxlrYN0OM/видео.html
What an amateur question, go watch some fedor fights and see how scared of the ground he is.
Derek
The legit fights or the Pride and Dream fights.
In his legit fights he got mauled on the ground and subbed.
Not sure what your point is.
c walker pride and dream isn't legit? Didn't realize the fights with Noguiera, cro cop, Gary goodrich, Mark coleman, Mark hunt, arlovski, Kevin randleman, etc were "not legit". My point was he has more than enough experience to not be "afraid" of going to the ground. Yes mir is super dangerous.
Joe Sudz Brock beat the life out of mir in the rematch, not a good argument.
c walker was that "legit" enough for ya lmaoooo
Think Fedor is keeping his head up during striking in this video to fool Mir? He's usually good at tucking that neck.
If Fedor doesn't KO Mir I will be disappoint.
Damn what a fight, ufc without Conor is soooo behind
So Mir used to read all the time and now he just plays clah of clans all day.
7:22 why is chael sonnens father training fedor😐
