He used to be one of my favorites! Too bad he took sooooo much time off as he could have been one of the greats. He could take a beating like no other, and then would come back and beat the hell out of his opponent.

Taktarov Back in BodogFIGHT ‘Russia vs. USA 2'

Although unnoticed by American fans, bodogFIGHT has started selling tickets for its second pay-per-view show from Russia, aptly named "Russia vs. USA 2."

The Nov. 30 event will again take place at the Khodynka Arena in Moscow, which played host to the super fight between Fedor Emelianenko and Matt Lindland in April.

Because of cost-cutting measures inside the promotion, the card may not be as stacked with superstars as in the past but still features some intriguing matchups. UFC legend Oleg Taktarov will come out of retirement to fight UFC veteran John Marsh in the main event. We will have more on the comeback of the "Russian Bear" later this week.
