Fighters.com’s Heavyweight Champion “Last Emperor” Fedor Emelianenko‘s (30-1) Strikeforce matchup versus ninth-ranked “Vai Cavalo” Fabricio Werdum (12-4-1) has been rumored for April, then May, and now Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker is pegging the fight for June, according to MMA Weekly.
Coker said, “Fedor is now scheduled to fight in June towards the end of the month in America against Fabricio Werdum.”
But, Coker left open the possibility that Emelianenko could fight Hidehiko Yoshida (9-7-1) at ASTRA’s inaugural event in Tokyo April 25.
“I’ve heard the rumors as well,” Coker admitted to MMA Weekly. “and as I know more I will let the media know in America, and let the media know here, but I believe that’s just a rumor.”

Fedr i still the best Heavyweight MMA fighter in the world. Has anyone beaten him lately? Nobody. No one has. I love watching him fight, because it’s like knowing the outcome, but wanting to see it any way.
I hate that! My keyboard doesn’t work correctly right now. I have to buy a new one. I’ll be typing away, thinking every letter is being typed, yet after I hit the send key, I look and see whole words missing. Sorry.
What I was trying to say is: Fedor is still the best…
fedor is the baddest mother fucker in the the world and we love him coz of his humbleness and respect to the sport. His biggest critic is dana white. He better just do his job and get the fedor vs brock lesnar on. That fight would be bigger than mayweather vs pacquaio.
