LMAO....
Lol In your dreams buddy XD
My suggestion is work on your cardio first, but either way Fedor would kill you. XD
Work on Cardio after beating Mousasi over 5 rounds...
Breaking news : King Mo is on crack! You are good but not that good Mo
many fighters are becoming a "comedian" when it comes to fighting fedor hkhk
what a joke fedor would knock his ass out quick status
Call out Alistair instead!! Why does every fighter want to fight Fedor???
Because Fedor is ranked WAMMA Champion and P4P by Sherdog and he has the most stripes to be taken????....DUHHHH!!!!!
If you are a true warrior you only want to fight the best.
anyone can beat fedor if they land 1 hard punch. but this guy has to be kidding me ,His performance was Awful and he won the belt .Mousasi was not the man he usualy is when he foguth him.
yeah youre right, fujita beat him that way...
one big slam directly on his head with all his weight, your weight, and the force you put into it, thats why randleman won too
nice name nuthugger
yes w/ that kind of cardio you can :D
HTYWO... This guy could destroy fador. All the way KING MO! WAR MO, WAR!!
yall do what i do, yall lose
This is the first time I've heard him talk where he didn't come off arrogant. I like that. As for Fedor, of course Mo's skill set isn't even close but strength and speed goes a long way in MMA. I would take Fedor by sub.
Sure thing! go right ahead, lets see how you do..
ROFLMAO
King "Im Gassed" Hoe .........wont cut it bro
Fedor by death round one!
That wouldn't even be a fight. Fedor is on a whole other level. Mo ain't got shit.
Hes not ready. Mousasi beat him up off his back so Fedor will KO him off his back if he Mo manages to take him down. There is only one king.
the only chance you would ever have is lay n pray for 5 rounds and that is never EVER going to work, dream on son
I like King Mo but he's getting to far ahead of himself. He should know he doesn't match up well against Fedor. Maybe he should fight Hendo.
I'd like to see a match up between Mo & Hector Lombard.
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
its possable lol... as long M1 global isnt his management to pay off fighters lmao
LAY N PRAY... until he gets submitted
hes the worst champion a organization can have!
****y and ignorant!
hope gegard mousasi kick his ass again and finish him in the rematch
Every1 is pissed becuz fedor never fights. It makes no sense when people and I mean alot of people want to fight him you put them down.
Mouthy Mo forgot to mention that the one contract stipulation that he would require to beat Fedor is that Fedor has to agree to have both hands tied behind his back during the fight.
If you watch the stats Musassi kicked his ass his mother culdn't recognise him after that fight .Mo won with take downs this is not a wrestling .He needs a rematch with Musassi.Fedor will kill Mo any way
with his cardio, no chance in hell!
If he writes Fedor on his own d*ck he can beat him!
What can i say...bhaahahahaha.....LOL! Just keep enjoy beating King Fedor in your wet dream LOLOL!
I remember when people underestimated mo and said he wouldn't beat gegard.
Anyways, if mo could work on his cardio then I don't see it being an issue. Mo is a very smart fighter!
I think a lot of fighters are talking trash about Fedor just to gain some fame...
Why is everybody getting all upset? Sensitive bunch we have here. All the man was saying is that Fedor is the best and he believes he can beat the best. He said only he can beat himself. What do you want him to say? "Oh I am just in MMA because my friends dared me to try it. I dont really think I can beat the best guy or go anywhere."
Yeah I agree... if you want to climb a mountain you have to shoot for the stars. That is the rule everywhere in life, why not in figting.
I respect every fighter who has that mentality, but it is another thing to say "I want to fight (test my self) against the best", and another thing to say "I believe I can beat the best".
When someone has turned your face into pulp by lying on his back... imagine what would a guy like fedor would do to you, especially if you start the usual "before the fight trash talk".
that is on point
the only person who believes it is Mo and thats all that matters really. Mo is Lhw champ and will not get a chance to fight Fedor anytime soon since he is gonna need to defend that title.
fedor's the best but he is just a man. Ali was the greatest in his time and he lost his last few fights. if fedor loses to werdum( i don't think its gonna happen just saying if) he will still go down as the greatest champion of our era. No other fighter has at the top level have a record like his, but he will lose eventually, unless he retires before that happens of course.
people said the same thing about franky edgar, he didn't have a chance to beat BJ Penn and was a idiot for saying he thought he could. yet he did.
i don't think Mo could beat fedor, but this is just because of his skill set. Sambo is much more like wrestling than BJJ,russia/eastern europe in general produce the worlds top olympic level wrestlers and many of them compete in combat sambo, fedor is used to beating really good world class wrestlers in a "mma" like martial art setting.
Everyone wants Fedor, Everyone can beat Fedor and yet hes only lost once. So King Mo STFU! Your gonna gas in 2 seconds and if by some miracle your crappy wrestling takes him down you better believe your ass is gonna get submitted
If King Mo gets this fight he will officially be the greatest self promoter in the history of MMA.
Fedor become so famous for everyone to challenge and King Mo you freaking serious .... no chance dude .LOL
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.......that made my ribs sore. Thanks for the laugh Mo
See this is why Fedor is the best, have you heard any fighter claim they could beat Brock? They all consider Fedor the guy to beat. And none have done it this far.
Lawal actually lost the fight against Mousasi. A simple view of the fight with CompuStrike data compiled atop Lawal lying flat on his back under dark glasses "crying" through a post fight interview with Ariel Helwani strongly confirm this.
Moe Syzlak has a better chance of beating Fedor.
I believe Fedor surpasses Mo in every department.
Lol!!!!! What the hell is Mo smokin?? King Mo is a good fighter but he aint that good
The emperor is always greater than the king. No matter what.
The MMA scoring system needs a makeover.
i dont think queen mo`s lay and press tactic is going to work with fedor hahahahaha, this just made my day!!!
