This Saturday, Strikeforce and M-1 Global to make a map co-promotion in Chicago, Illinois as a heavyweight Fedor Emelianenko Strikeforce legend takes light heavyweight champion Dan Henderson. Dan Henderson is the last fight of his contract, Fedor Emelianenko, and run the risk of being cut if he loses, then it is a very important match for both fighters. It is unlikely that the Strike Force will hold both fighters on their list at high pay they are currently paid according to this battle is over. The following is an overview of the card stacked on Saturday.
Dan Henderson (27-8) vs Fedor Emelianenko (31-3) heavyweight
Dan Henderson has long been believed that he will fight anyone, even a heavyweight. If it was not Fedor loses his last two fights heavy, this fight would never happen. Now we get to see a former welterweight and middleweight champion to take the pride of former Pride heavy. Dan Henderson has never been shy away from a challenge, and it is certainly a big challenge ahead of them. Henderson is coming off two knockout victories in a row before the profits lost on national television, Jake Shields. Emelianenko is a victory for his biggest win to date, and helps him to command top dollar talks UFC and Strikeforce. Henderson has more experience in fighting a heavyweight, when he lost his armbar submission, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira in 2002, but to win Nogueira and Gilbert Yvel Decision in 2000 for the promotion of the Rings.
Fedor Emelianenko badly needs a win to stay relevant in the American MMA scene. There have been rumors that Fedor was recently looking thinner and lower light heavyweight is a possibility. A fight against Dan Henderson could be a test for Fedor to see how it goes against the smallest light heavyweight, but more agile. The closest battle in the style of Dan Henderson Fedor fought Matt Lindland medium, who defeated Fedor Armbar submission in the first round. While Fedor has two straight losses, is still a very dangerous fighter, but may have damaged your state. His loss to Fabricio Werdum was a phrase that came out of nowhere, and his loss to Antonio Silva could have been due to the difference in size between the two. Fedor still has fast hands, explosive and deadly.
This fight is a fight as both fighters like pulling harvesters with deadly precision and accuracy. It is unlikely that this fight will last two rounds. Emelianenko is expected that the heaviest fighting, but I think it will be a great advantage for him in this fight. Henderson cement his legacy if he can become the first boxer ever to destroy the great Fedor Emelianenko. Fedor Emelianenko will try to recover his being the first person to always call Dan Henderson. Based on their fighting styles, I think an experienced fighter his first loss by KO. Fedor should win this fight, because if you do not, will be the official end of the myth Fedor, and very possibly the end of the M-1 Global organization in the United States.
