Fedor yawner

Today’s Fedor Emelianenko press conference in Anaheim, CA, turned out be pretty much what I expected – a whole lot of nothing.

Fedor has not signed with the UFC, although he’s gotten an offer and made a counter-offer and there will likely be a counter-counter-offer and so on. Those negotiations are ongoing, but since M-1 Global, of which Fedor is a stakeholder, only wants a a co-promotion deal we may not see the Russian heavyweight in the Octagon anytime soon. Fedor and M-1 have also been made an offer by Strikeforce, which is being considered.

The only definitive statement to come out of the presser is that Fedor will highlight the new EA Sports MMA video game along with Gegard Mousasi and Renato “Babalu” Sobral that’ll be release sometime next year for Playstation 3 and XBox 360 consoles. So there’s that to look forward to.
