MMA December - All We Want For Christmas is Bisping's Two Front Teeth

It's nice to see Fedor on his way back to attempt to re-establish himself as the #1 Heavyweight Can Crusher in the world.

That's what everyone was saying about Overeem, and now look at where he's at.

The fact is, even against "cans," Fedor is looking tremendous strictly because of his patience. And it has to lead people to believe that if Fedor had that patience against Werdum, Big Foot, and Hendo... those fights would have gone much differently.
 
I highly doubt Fedor could have done anything to make the Bigfoot fight go differently.

He won the 1st Round, and to start the 2nd he charged right in which led to Big Foot's takedown. If Fedor was more patient and cautious, there's no way Big Foot gets him to the ground.

Fedor lost the first round and he would've gotten taken down regardless of patience, he was alsoa being patient enough in the Henderson fight, he was trying to pick his shots but got knocked the fuck out. Just watching him fight you can tell he's not that good anymore, slow punches, poor striking defense etc.

It's clearly a toss up and a matter of opinion. Judges gave it to Fedor though if I remember correctly.

... what? Please tell me you're trolling. No one in their right mind could ever call Fedor patient in the Hendo fight. He did nothing but bum rush in throwing bombs. That's literally all he did the entire fight and it's exactly why he lost (though I still say the stoppage was early).

If I remember correctly, Fedor was being fairly patient in the position he had Hendo in but he just got outsmarted by a great fighter in Henderson. Part of what made Fedor successfull was the fact he was aggressive and would risk getting hit in order to hit back, he's just slower and weaker than before and facing better competition.
