http://www.sherdog.com/news/news/update-fedor-rogers-meet-nov-7-on-cbs-19758

Date has been set, location hasn't. Article is saying the front runner is chicago which would be perfect. I got friends there, and with all the money im going to make on that event, I could use a vacation.

I expect UFC to announce a fight night Nov 7.

Doesn't sound like a fight night is an option with all the card shuffling from Rampage pulling out.

[brooks85]

Man i was afraid this shit was going to happen. Rampage is a ****ing bitch. The odds if this movie being any good is about 10%. A-team is garbage, the biggest demographic of mma fans are not even old enough to know what A-team is. God, and you know that movie is going to suck too, ****ing remakes. I dont care if page fights or not, but its horseshit he is messing up other events.

When you say you are going to make a lot of money, you don't mean by betting on Rogers do you???

[brooks85]

no sir, ill be on fedor HUGE. Fedor by Kimura 1:19 Round 1.

but ill have some backup parlays with rogers just in case, already started working on them.

[brooks85]

Looks like mousasi is going to be on this card but not confirmed against who yet. Seems whitehead, randleman and filho are the front runners. Small possibility Arona maybe signs with strikeforce but no way they make that fight yet. Id say its going to be filho because their is bad blood there, except mousasi doesnt seem like the guy to sell a fight. But they definitely do not like each other.

[The HOFF]

Mousasi vs Filho would be awesome, but Filho would fail the drug test!

[illmatick]

Filho wouldn't stand a chance, I never understood all the hype around that guy

[naokothewarrior]

Nice, Fedor FTW

[RobbReport]

i thought it said roger federer for a second.

Wrong...Fedor by Arm bar 1st round.

here's what's going to happen. Brett Rogers is going to come charging and Fedor will get the take down and quickly transition to an arm bar. you heard it here first.

[brooks85]

for fedor to get an arm bar, odds on he would be on the bottom. not going to happen, its a kimura or even a KO, brett hasn't been hit by any like fedor

[Boddhissatva]

Fedor arm barred COleman twice from the bottom.

And he did a crazy, upside down, reverse arm bar on Lindland..

that being said...

Fedor will be very wise to get the take down.

Brett Rogers has some heavy hands.

[brooks85]

thats what i mean, fedor will not be on the bottom against brett rogers

Fedor on the bottom = armbar
Fedor on top = kimura

[Boddhissatva]

thats what i mean, fedor will not be on the bottom against brett rogers

Fedor on the bottom = armbar
Fedor on top = kimura

Oops...my Bad. I should try reading slower.

Either way, I hope my sportsbook offers a prop bet in regards to outcome.

I have Fedor by submission.

[brooks85]

hey, we are on the same page then, fedor is as smart as they come and rogers has 7.5'' reach advantage. Im thinking sub also.

Is there a line on this fight yet?

Brett Rogers +370
Fedor Emelianeko -450

[Pabinator]

Will you guys be suprised if Rogers wins? I wouldnt be at all. Im even considering taking Brett on this fight.

[brooks85]

surprised, ya I would definitely be. On paper, there is no reason fedor should get hit. Rogers is heavy handed and quick but nothing new to fedor. Brett doesn't have technical striking, doesn't meant he won't bring it to this fight, so fedor should have no issue getting inside his reach for a td or KO. Fedors striking is easily better than rogers and easily the best rogers has ever faced. I could see this fight going exactly like sylvia fight. Rogers throws out a jab or makes the big mistake and throws out some looping punch that ko'd AA, next thing we see is bretts face is catching a nasty 10 punch combo.

[Pabinator]

I guess I havent seen Mr Fedor fight with a young live guy in a while. I've only seen him fight with the UFC rejects like Sylvia (who lost to Ray Mercer btw) & Andre Arvlaski (who lost to Rodgers). And being that I saw Fedor show signs of problems with Andre's hands before Andre's chin quit. And I think Bret Rodgers looks like a bigger MR T and we all see what MR T did to Rocky in Rocky 3 who takes the best azz whippings off all time!

I see FEdor barely winning because Bret gets tired half way through round 2. Or Brett Smash's that over rated Prick down (Or I wish)

A more likely outcome is that Fedor gets the take down because of an overly aggressive Rogers comes rushing in...and Fedor will secure a dangerous position and utilize his sambo skills and get the submission early.

have to give you some points for the best avatar at SBR

[brooks85]

that is a good one



looks like mousasi is official now... still no opponent

[The HOFF]

"Ultimate Fighter" season nine contestant Mark Miller will make his Strikeforce debut Nov. 7 against Deray Davis on the undercard of Strikeforce on CBS.

MMAWeekly.com first learned of the match-up Tuesday from sources close to Miller.

The Sears Centre Arena in suburban Chicago hosts the live network debut of the promotion, headlined by heavyweights Fedor Emelianenko and Brett Rogers.

Before making his reality show debut, Miller (14-5) had lost two consecutive fights, most recently against UFC newcomer Mike Pierce at SportFight 24 in September 2008. Five months prior, he lost a bid for the welterweight title against Jay Hieron in the now defunct International Fight League.

Davis (5-1-1) made a brief appearance in Bellator Fighting Championshps this year, losing to Jesse Juarez by TKO in May. The loss snapped a four-fight win streak. The 26-year-old fighter currently fights out of Team Corral in Indiana.

alrighttttt

[teaserpleaser]

why do they want to get Fabrico killed Bigfoot will probably ko him

[brooks85]

Definitely seems like a match up they could have built up for the next event. Bring two new guys for silva/werdum and save that match up for the next event. But, I guess they are going for the biggest draw possible.


Looks like AA will be visiting jackson's camp for 10-days and plans on fighting in dec or jan.

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

Gegard Mousasi opponent has been named and it will be a non title fight with SuperHulk fianlist Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou. So the televised fight card looks great

Fedor Emelianenko vs. Brett Rogers
Jason Miller vs. Jake Shields
Gegard Mousasi Vs Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou
Fabricio Werdum vs. Antonio Silva

[The HOFF]

This has shaped up to be the best card since UFC 100.

[Bread]

Now we get to sit back and enjoy the injuries/positive testings

[Pabinator]

Gosh I hope Rogers bash's his head in
