The Fedor/ Cro cop fight was ok, but Cro cop is mostly known for his powerful kicks, in the fight seems like Fedor stayed in close and didnt let him kick really and just controlled the match.

I wish that Fedor and Arlovski would line up a fight that would probably be a better fight than Fedor has coming up. Or Fedor and Crocop again.

I always felt that strikers had to do a lot of adapting and adjusting when fighting the in the UFC's octagon. Look at the fight, Wanderlei was backed into the cage wall where he ate a series of 1-2's. I still firmly believe that even back then, if the fight took place in a ring like Pride's, Wanderlei would have come out on top.
