It’s no secret that Fedor Emelianenko (34-4) is the hottest free agent on the market today. After taking some time away from the sport, the former PRIDE Heavyweight champion feels that it is time to return to the ring.
Since coming out of retirement, Fedor’s name has been on the tip of suitors, media members and fans tongues alike – all summer long. With his ties to Scott Coker, Bellator immediately became the leading candidate. Then, talks of a rematch against current UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum came to the forefront. Heck, even WSOF has gotten some press in regards to Fedor coming back to the cage.
