Video: Fedor Emelianenko reveals he's negotiating with UFC, demands world's strongest fighters

"This is being negotiated, in particular with the UFC, as well as some other promotions. I think it will soon be finally determined. As for the opponent, I would say that desire must comply opportunities. I would like to face the strongest fighters in the world, UFC champion Fabricio Werdum. Given that over three years I did not fight, during the first fight I would like to get involved, check for myself. So now I'll regain my shape after returning from Mashuk [youth forum] and will then begin a scheduled training camp."

Former PRIDE FC heavyweight Champion Fedor Emelianenko (translated by Bloody Elbow) is definitely coming back to mixed martial arts (MMA), but we still don't know when or where.
