Round 1: Werdum enters in his gi, Fedor with his customary blank stare. Big John McCarthy tells them to get it on, and they circle each other in the center of the cage. Fedor clips Werdum in the fist punching exchange and the Brazilian topples backwards. Emelianenko jumps on him immediately and Werdum reaches for an armbar. Fedor escapes, but in his zeal to hit Werdum he gets caught up in a triangle choke. It's tight, and his head is visibly changing colors. Emelianenko can't pull out of it, and Werdum is also putting pressure on the arm. One light tap from Fedor, and it's over. Werdum leaps to his feet and runs screaming in joy to his corner.

Fabricio Werdum def. Fedor Emelianenko via submission (triangle choke/armbar) at 1:09 of round 1

And just like that, the aura of invincibility is shattered.

Ha, ha, ha :rofl: I was really a big Fedor fan up until he kept ducking all the good fighters and the fact that he disses the UFC fighters but does not want to fight any of them. So I find it kind of funny that he lost to Werdum and so fast at that. I guess Werdum is going to fight Overeem now? Maybe he will step up to the plate...

we can now truly say OVERRATED!! your right Boanerges he has been doing alot of talking while ducking fighters. okay maybe not overrated. lets just say he's not immortal.

Im just waiting for all the Fedor nuthuggers to say that Fedor was past his prime and old. Yes he was over rated!

I've seen two Cyborg fights and both times her opponents were left looking like minced meat.

That woman is a monster.

i think you are giving her too much credit calling her a woman. i'd say she is 50% female, at the most.

Fedor is still an MMA legend a 31-2 record. I mean look at the name he has fought. I would have liked to see him fight in the UFC and not duck some real challenges lately. When he fought Andrei Arlovski he was lossing. It looked like When Andrei had him a little rocked he just got to overzealous and got caught.

Werdum I believe had a 2-2 record in the UFC. They release people to quickly IMO sometimes. But it looks like it worked out for Werdum.

Cyborg is a flipping beast.

Hah. Take that Fedor. I don't like crap-talkers, it's very unsportsmanlike conduct.

I do think Fedor would have had that fight if he wasn't an idiot.. shoulda stepped back and forced Werdum on his feet again.

I don't think Fedor is overrated because of this one loss. I think this loss is good for him, it takes the pressure off of him and he'll be back on his feet and hopefully climb back up the rankings.
What sucks is a lot of people jump boats when fighters lose, a lot of ppl jumped off the Machida band wagon once Shogun KO'd him, when Shogun was submitted to Forrest, and so on. I tend to stick to my favorites regardless of they lose. So WAR FEDOR! Get back on your feet and make a graet come back!
He was very respectful and gracious in defeat, and people are laughing at him. Was he REALLY the #1 HW or P4P? Maybe, maybe not. But I wouldn't call him overrated, we'll see what the future holds for Fedor.
And I'm not a Fedor nuthugger btw, though I am a Shogun nuthugger.
