Fedor funny business

Last night I reported that Fedor Emelianenko had been offered a $30-million, six fight deal with the UFC that he turned down because the UFC refused to co-promote with M-1 Global. Now, a day later, MMA Fanhouse is telling a different story.

Quoting an anonymous source close to the negotiations (which could be complete bullshit, who knows?), the actual offer on the table was a three-fight contract with a guarantee of less than $2 million per fight. Of course, that’s not including ancillaries like a cut of the pay-per-view revenue, which could conceivably push Fedor’s take home pay closer to the $6 million per fight originally reported.

Doesn’t matter. Fedor/M-1 have said no and the heavyweight is now on a flight back to Russia. At least until tomorrow when UFC president Dana White pulls a rabbit out of his ass. You never know, could happen. But at this point I just ant to see Fedor fight somebody, anybody. Hell, I’d be happy watching Fedor fight Carrot Top. Really happy, actually. Have you seen Carrot Top lately? The dude is freakishly jacked up.
