Ill start off the tribute with Fedor's most recent fight against Lindland. Enjoy.

Fedor Emelianenko VS Matt Lindland:
This is Fedor’s most recent fight up to date. It was the last time he was seen fighting and it took place on April 17th, 07. Fedor was challenged by Matt Lindland, a Olympic wrestling medalist at Bodog Fight - Clash of the Nations in Russia. With his wrestling credentials, Lindland was thought to have a real chance against Fedor, but Fedor’s perfect record tells us it was not the case. Lindland opened up a cut on Fedor early in the fight, but Fedor was pretty much in control when the fight got onto the ground early. You can see how good Fedor’s ground game is in this fight. It was rumored that Fedor’s opponent should have been Couture in this Bodog event, but Couture turned down the offer. With so many people talking about Randy Couture’s Greco-Roman wrestling being something that can stop Fedor, we can see what Lindland’s Greco-Roman wrestling can do to Fedor in this fight.


Fedor Emelianenko VS Babalu Sobral:
A match between Fedor and Babalu at RINGS - 10th Anniversary. This was actually not as one sided as most would expect.


Fedor Emelianenko VS Kevin Randleman:

Fedor faces The Monster Randleman at Pride - Critical Countdown 2004. Im sure you have seen the highlight of this fight, this is the fight where Randleman does the infamous suplex on Fedor. One of the craziest slams in MMA history, but it still wont stop Fedor as he would come back from it and win. Randleman shows great respect to Fedor after the fight.


Fedor Emelianenko VS Crocop:
This is the match between Fedor and Crocop at Pride Final Conflict 2005. This was a huge fight during that time, the hype surrounding it was crazy. Fedor and Crocop were both considered the best and most dangerous HW around. So this fight was a clash of the titans during that time. You can see Fedor coming in with a game plan, as he fought with a different style. A lot of people incluing Fedor’s brother was victims to Crocop and Fedor knew exactly how to fight him. Below are 2 videos of Crocop’s training leading to this fight, the 3rd video shows both fighters at the stadium right before the match and the 4th video is the actual fight.

The Fight


Fedor Emelianenko VS Naoya Ogawa:
This is the fight between Fedor and Ogawa at Pride - Final Conflict 2004. Note Ogawa’s cocky face at the beginning and he didn’t touch gloves with Fedor leaving Fedor just hanging his knuckles in the air. Ogawa will certain pay for that.


Fedor Emelianenko VS Ricardo Arona:
Fedor matches up against Arona at RINGS - King of Kings 2000 Block B. A lot of people thought this was a close fight and thought that Arona actually has a great chance.
