EFN 50 results: Fedor Emelianenko barely beats Fabio Maldonado

Fabio Maldonado gave Fedor Emelianenko all he could handle early, but Fedor squeaked out a decision win in the EFN 50 headliner.

I don't think the UFC will be coming calling for Fedor Emelianenko any time soon. The 39-year-old legend returned to the cage today at Eurasia Fight Nights 50 to take on ex-UFC light heavyweight Fabio Maldonado, and he barely scraped out a victory.

The first round saw Maldonado take advantage of a Fedor mistake, which gave him the opportunity to beat Fedor up on the ground. He got up, but was battered around the cage for most of the rest of the round.
