14 people have held the heavyweight belt in the UFC and Fedor is 7-0-1 all time against them - stewie Feb 13, 14:32 10

- and can secret entities trade the public? -- nm - Reagen Feb 13, 13:11 3
  - To a larger point, they're pretty lousy secrets if the public knows them. -- nm - David Feb 13, 13:15 2
    - this is the source of the comment -- (link) - prayformojo Feb 13, 13:21 1

        settle down, Beavis. - TFox Feb 13, 11:46 1

- DAF 33 variomatic? -- (link) - Danedukenuuk Feb 13, 11:07
- hee. what was the bet? -- nm - prayformojo Feb 13, 10:33 7
  - Something Mouse Hunt, I'm guessing. Also, after TFox's boasting about picking a glorious nick, this is kind of a let-down -- nm - Roger More Feb 13, 10:40 1

Dana White trashed Fedor pretty good on Twitter - stewie Feb 13, 10:08 7
- Yeah, Fedor only took apart 2 of Dana's heavyweight champions rather convincingly. - Will Hunting Feb 13, 10:40 6
  - I don't remember if they were champions in the Dana era, certainly not in the post TUF world of mma. - ceregon Feb 13, 11:34 4
    - And if Dana wants to say he beat no one of note...then most of the UFC heavy's from 2005-2008 were nobodies. - Will Hunting Feb 13, 12:09
    - Yeah, they were. Arlovski and Sylvia had a trilogy in 05/06 and Sylvia held the belt till 08 or so when Couture beat him. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 13, 12:03 2
      - Sylvia lost it early 07 to Coutre, August 05 was when UFC started pulling away from the competition -- nm - ceregon Feb 13, 14:21 1
        
        They are the guys; they sold millions in PPV's on the backs of Sylvia and Arlovski fighting..... - Will Hunting Feb 13, 14:41
  - true, but Fedor's demands were in.sane. his recent fights just prove that -- nm - Beaker Feb 13, 10:45
[deleted] 5
- About the same here, though a little warmer. From a low of 13 on Thursday to a high of 71 today. -- nm - not2fast Feb 13, 10:37
