Sadly, but I agree with this. Fedor looked like a legit old man in his last fight, he has no business being in any ring anymore, but obviously he desires another payday. If he just stayed retired in 2012 there would be less dispute to the GOAT talks, but he tarnished his status with his return. Some people might say that the end of career doesn't matter, but it does matter. If the first fight matters, so does the last one. Everything matters. Saddest thing is, with paying that price, he obviously still didn't earn enough.I been saying Fedor doesn't have money, his manager & connection to M1 drained or were draining his money, he has minimal
sponsors based on the organization he has been fighting in for the past few years, when he could've been in the UFC making bank and with the uptick in Russian talent & fighters from that region, he could've been the face for them in that part of the world. But but it was Dana who botched the negotiations....nope M1 botched it because they wanted co ownership and be partners with Zuffa. Zuffa didn't give in. But Gullible Scott Coker did and ran Strikeforce into the ground just like Bellator. Fedor should've made his decisions for himself and not let the ones around him dictate his career. He isn't retired he's going to comeback he didn't build a stable impact on his way out in MMA to have people invested in him. It's sad really.
