Looks like Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield is off before summer

Yeah, he’s some kind of elite special forces type from the East.

Kharitonov is a seriously dangerous fighter, and if Mirko ends up in the cage with him, he's going to have a hell of a time...

Daniel Chavez14 said:Yeah, I guess I should remind everyone here that I was actually the one who first cooked up this whole MMF (Minotaur-Mirko-Fedor) triangle theory. This was way back before Mirko even stepped into the cage against minotaur. Now, suddenly, it feels like everyone is acting like they came up with it themselves. 😳 🙂

Exactly! I remember that clearly!

👍

Look, folks: ever since Mirko stepped away from politics and the movie business, he’s been training harder than I ever thought possible. Honestly, at this point, Mirko is easily the most prepared and dangerous fighter in the MMA game.

I truly believe he could go toe-to-toe and absolutely wreck minotaur, Fedor, or even that massive Russian heavyweight!

Look, can we please just get this straight once and for all? Neither the movies nor the political noise had anything to do with the ups and downs of Mirko’s career...

Anyone who actually knows him understands that his entire life revolves around his training schedule, not the other way around...

And for the record—since people seem to think he's retired or caught up in politics—he's still active. Just thought I'd clear that up.

So what else was actually responsible for his failures??
Is it just because you've convinced yourself that an American can't win on pure grit?
There’s probably some truth to that, but if you ask me, his biggest mistake was just slacking off when it came to training.

I remember hearing a pro athlete once say that when he was in peak condition, the ball would land exactly where he wanted it, right on the money. But after just a single week of subpar training, even a tiny slip-up would send the ball landing 10 centimeters left or right of the target.

Look, stop talking about things you clearly don't understand. You haven't seen his training sessions, you've never actually stepped into the gym with him, and frankly, you don't have the slightest clue what high-level training actually looks like.
It’s honestly unbelievable how people just hand these victories to him on a silver platter... ridiculous.

Everyone loses sometimes. If you had ever actually watched a fight in a ring, you'd realize that's just how the game works. One day you walk away with the win, and the next... you lose. Even to the exact same opponent. It happens.

And I have no idea where you even found that amateur like Joe Rogan to compare him to... just awful.

Honestly, Fedor is just a total chicken.

wanderingridge: we're all well aware of that... 🙂🙂

Still thinking about this from June 26th.

No way. NOT AGAIN. I freaking knew it. This is garbage.

Fedor is playing mind games with Cro Cop

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Mirko Filipović didn't hold back, absolutely losing his cool when addressing Fedor Emelianenko's latest attempt to push back their June 26th showdown:

- It’s infuriating. He’s still trying to pull all the strings. He knows perfectly well I need to fight in June, so he’s trying to drag this whole thing into August just to screw me over—leaving me with a measly 45 days to prep while he gets four full months. Now they’re actually trying to pitch Minotaur as an opponent, and only two months before the scheduled date! But look, my manager Ken Imai tells me Fedor has already headed out to his training camp, so nothing is officially postponed until August yet—that's what a furious Cro Cop told us.

I’m really hoping this just winds Fedor up even more, so he's absolutely livid 😠 by the time fight night actually rolls around. 😁

Plus, it honestly looks like he’s genuinely terrified of Fedor, which is exactly what we want to see. 🙂
