While Fedor Emelianenko is still planning a return to mixed martial arts, details of his highly anticipated comeback remain murky at best.

Earlier this summer, “The Last Emperor” announced that he would fight again for the first time since retiring following a victory over Pedro Rizzo in June 2012. Since then, numerous rumors have swirled around the ex-Pride Fighting Championships star, including a recent report that had the stoic Russian on the verge of signing with the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
