I think Fedor is lookin to train with Carwin, cus he's similar in size to Overeem. and training with Carwin could help him prepare for reems size and strength, not to mention power as well. He could even help in preparation for Big Foot.
Overeem > Carwin...I think Fedor is going to need more than just that.
This is MMA and real challengers now, Carwin is a perfect choice
well, Fedor is Fedor, so that makes up for whatever Carwin lacks.
I think he wanted to train with a proficient striker that's capable of crushing his face with a single hit. He's gonna need to stay away from power like that to beat Overeem. If we get to see Overeem v. Fedor both relatively undamaged in the tourney, I expect to see Fedor be very elusive.
Carwin move to Russia because you are lucky.
I said before and continue to believe that Hendo should not be getting a title shot for beating Babalu. I know SF was going to give Babalu the shot before he requested Dan but I didn't think beating a MW should have gotten him a shot either. All of that aside, Feijao V Henderson has Epic Battle written all over it and I can see no clear winner. This will be a great fight.
If I was Carwin I would already be at the airport with a ticket to Russia in one hand and a bag full of inhalers in the other, because I would be running out of breath a LOT!
