Scott Coker Strikeforce Post-Fight Interview

[Shonem]

As much as I like Fedor, I really hate all the fanboys.

Rogers got caught and knocked out, it happens to the best.

He bloodied up Fedor's face and over all was winning the fight.

He just got caught with a punch and went down.

[shtruc]

quezcatol, you're so fuckin stupid. Noone ever has fought so big list, of top 10 world fighters. Only Fedor have.

[theriftable]

how the fuck did rogers do a fantastic job coker, he got KTFO'd u idiot. Its obvious that Strike-farce was trying to set up a rematch between Fedor & Rogers before the fighte even happened because Strikforce has a Weak Ass Heavyweight division and nobody any good to fight Fedor! They even got the announcer right after the fight to imply a rematch. Fucking greasy bastards. Rogers by no means deserves a rematch he got owned cleanly but i bet you any money Strike-farce will set up a rematch.

[thaistomp]

they're not setting up a rematch anytime soon

[theriftable]

they want to though, its obvious

[BoUnIeYo]

haha omg dude that rogers like 40 Ibs heavier than fedor why's scott coker surprised roger escaping those ground submission. and a watching this fight a fan of rogers? HAHAH and what... hurt fedor? HAHAHAHA that scott coker is an idiot

[Cessation3]

ok queer, 4-1 beats 31-1, maybe in your fantasies, but not in the real world.

[maxhansendk]

Scott Coker seems like a promotion genius compared to Dana White!

But, hey...Dana looks like a fool most of the time anyway.

[wickedassassin]

Thanks Scott Coker for giving us fights that fans want to see... big ups

[Gr00veT00be]

I don't think it's a matter of when another fighter will overcome Fedor, but rather, when age will overcome him. Humans experience athletic decline (respiratory, muscular, reflex action) after age 30. Fedor only 33 but nobody is immune to the effects of time.

[Gr00veT00be]

What evidence is there that Fedor is scared? He will fight anyone they put in front of him. Many of the guys he's fought have great reputations as well. Even though he makes it look like it, he's not just going around noob stomping. Imagine what most of his opponents could do in a bar fight or street fight. These guys are trained professionals and fight for a living.

Just because Fedor doesn't go around picking fights and headhunting, doesn't mean he's scared of another fighter.

[conkanee]

Agreed, ufc prolly has a bigger stable of seasoned fighters, but they also got a huge pile of shitty fighters, and continue to sign shit fighters, ie. Ben Rothwell.

Strikeforce is growing and i think UFC knows this.

If Strikeforce aint shit, why is UFC 105 gonna be free on TV. I think Dana White is a bit scared.

And if u think Strikeforce is minor league, look at the fighters they got comin, Jacare, Zaromskis, Aoki,

Watch out UFC!!

[jasonpeak82]

Dana says Cain Velasquez is the one of the best HW, but his last fight was Ben Rothwell, not exactly the best

[yura2z]

UFC has more seasoned fighters and has much better training camps partaking in the preparation process as well as they do well in match-up strategy. The other companies (like strike force) is more along not to say amateur but ..College football vs. NFL. I believe one thing for sure, they need to get a better translator for Feodor (what he was saying was gravely misrepresented and what was getting translated to him was pure nonsense I do speak Russian).

[kmel17]

on a whole the ufc has the the most amount of depth in every division but at the top there alot of top 5-10 fighters in a particiular weightclass that are not in the ufc. in terms of training camps they dont segregate by organization. you dont have to be with the ufc to have a great training camp/stategy. for example aka has ufc fighters: jon fitch, josh koscheck, cain velasquez, and mike swick. but they also have strikeforce fighters: cung le and josh thompson this is true with any big mma camp

[FlintknapperJimmy]

The UFC lacks homegrown champs. Look, most of their top guys came from other organizations. Pride cleaned out the UFC's top game. just my 2 cents...

[keltec6666]

fedor kick the shit out of that looser

[jasonpeak82]

well said, how can u watch the fight and not be a fan of rogers and Fedor. this fight was the best I seen in years, better than any fight in UFC's history.

[MrElectroGod]

Why is Scott complimenting Brett more than the person who actually won the fight and dominated most of it?

He is obviously on Brett's side.

[eyoutuby]

I totally agree!! What an asshole! Very unprofessional of him. Will people please give Fedor his due!!!

[aznkhmy]

Haha.. Dana's playing u ufc fanboys like a puppet! Keep stuffing his pocket full of your hard earned money douchers, and u will continue to see rigged judges/decisions/fights. Haha! War Shogun!

1-fedor

2-mousasi

3-shogun

4-GSP

5-anderson (as much as I don't want to admit it... I will because I'm a true mma fan- not ufc fanboy)

"if u don't give fedor respect. He takes it from u." -me.

[quezcatol]

wait, Gegard with 26-2 fought who? oh, thats right, he fought a guy with 7-4, keep building fake record at strikefarce, retards like you fall for it.

I agree that Gegard is a great fighter, but if your not fighting the top dogs its easy to create fake records.

[jasonpeak82]

Did Gegard win in the 1st seconds of the first round? no. Fedor had a tough time with rogers size, power, strength. He broke his nose and his left hand. Gegard and Fedor came out with victorys' but in no way was it easy.

[TheRicharBurke]

Jacare KO, Babalu TKO in a minute, Denis Kang Triangle, Mark Hunt arm lock, I can keep going if you want people seriously look at the win loss record and think fighters are good or bad off of it. Anybody who watches Gegard is seriously going to be a monster in the years to come

[quezcatol]

denis kang,mark hunt and bablu isnt top guys.

[TheRicharBurke]

You're right they're not top guys but they are hard fights.

[stockmaster1982]

dude denis kang is a top guy! what are you talking about! He used to been called one of the top fighters in mma! And im pretty sure he's gonna make a comeback and due really well in the UFC!

[kmel17]

the guy has wins over ronaldo souza, dennis keng, evangelista santos, melvin manhoff, renato sobral, and hector lombard. i wouldnt call that a fake record.

[leojr2005]

this is the youknow guy

[lioncombo]

Cokers seems like a cool dude

[barkevvv]

so apperantly coker is impressed by any desperate faggot who agrees to walk into the mat for him

hes such a piece of shit

[barkevvv]

fedor is a scared piece of shit

cain velasquez and shane carwin can knock the shit out of brett rogers

not impressive at all

[robertokarlos100]

actually both of them would get ktfo by rogers standing.their chance would be on the ground to win.carwin has similar power to rogers but way slower hands,cain has ok hand speed but not much power at all.go back to sucking dana whites cock fagget

[barkevvv]

you cant possibly be serious

of course hes 31 and 0

hes also never fought anyone

i hate lesnar like crazy but fedor has been fighting in the minor leagues for years now

lesnar is too quick and too strong to ever be stopped by fedor

and carwin is up and coming

and not gonna lie

cain velasquez even has a good shot at fucking fedors shit up

the guy is getting old

ufc would tear his shit up

[bam6956]

get your facts straight he and lesnar are the same age

[robertokarlos100]

dont wont to insult you again.i will just say that you really have no idea what you talking about.will leave it at that

[PeopleOfAr]

@barkevvv ufc is a glorified wwf, no wander their main fighter is a former wwf performer. The UFC couldn't tear Fedor if their lives depended on it. What nare you talking about....? You sound like a real ignorant douche. Fedor was fighting ONLY the TOP leagues. MMA is not UFC, in case you didn't know.

[barkevvv]

yeah youre just one of those fucking strikeforce bitches who doesnt want to be with the hype and shit so you bag on the ufc

i hate brock lesnar but the truth of the matter is that the guy is a mack truck

noone can touch him becuase hes too big and too fast

and he can take anyone down when he wants

and once he does he can get past guards like crazy

fedor didnt go to ufc because dana didnt want fedor's company, M1 to be a promoter so his managers wouldnt let him

hes a scared bitch

[jasonpeak82]

did u see Fedor destroy rogers. forget he's 5 inches smaller, 60 pounds lighter, he bullied Brett, who's bigger than Lesnar. People realize Rogers is better than they thought, Brett, would kick Brock's retarted ass

[quezcatol]

Fedor didnt destroy rogers, are you fing insane? I saw the fight, one jab and he broke his nose and started to cough blood, wtf are you on man? rogers clearly won the first round.

[jasonpeak82]

it was a great fight, and then the KO. Rogers one the first round, bullshit. He landed one punch Fedor responded with a flurry, and secured an effortless takedown. Plus he almost pulled off a kimura, arm bar, reversed rogers, had dominate posistion at the end of round 1, plus he was moving forward the whole fight, u must be blind to think rogers won round 1

[unlimitedcat]

Fedor throw him 2 times to the ground like nothing, and when rogers with +30 lbs of advantage try to ground and pound him almost fall in a submission, after this, he stay on the ground afraid to stand up and continue the fight on his feet because he was tired and Fedor finish the round on top. On the 2nd round, Fedor fly on speed and connect with absolute power and precision to the shin of Brett and send him to T.K.O., Fedor is Fedor, since Pride he do whatever he want to do, is just like that.

[PeopleOfAr]

Dude anabolic Lesnar body doesn't mean shit. You people see muscles and think it's something awesome. You must live in an imaginary world if you even think of calling Fedor a scared bitch. Fedor is a sportsman, all your beloved UFC fighters are entertainers. There is a difference between entertainment and sport. And this difference UFC seems to neglect. Thats why UFC has this ridiculous cage, anabolic fighters and over the top fakeness. Again MMA is not UFC and UFC is NOT MMA !!!!!

[barkevvv]

ridiculous cage? you do realize that strikeforce has one too right? dipshit

and ufc has the strongest lineup of any other sports brand out there

dont get me wrong

its not like ill follow them off a cliff, especially after this seasons piece of shit fighters in the ulitmate fighter but the truth is

UFC has more experienced fighters and any heavyweight there can take strikeforces belt... except for fedor... cause thats lesnars job

even though hes a disgrace

[Cessation3]

There is a standing challenge from fedor to lesnar, why isn't he taking it? Looks like lesnar is the scared bitch, after all.

[barkevvv]

yeah but who says cain will want to keep the fight standing

the guys a fucking wrestler to begin with and hell fuck rogers shit up

[quezcatol]

are you retarded?

Lesnar took over 100+ guys down at his NCAA wrestling at weight 285+ pound, why wouldnt he be able to wrestle down cain like he did with for ex mir,couture and herring?

[barkevvv]

hahaha i know

and i know noone can touch him right now but im a cain fan so im stupidly optimistic just like mir fans were

[quezcatol]

Cain is very aggresive and fast.

The question is however, if Cain cant control you, how much power does he have?

Cheick kongo took over 100 hits, and didnt fall, now you could say the same thing about brock vs herring, but atleast brocks first punch made herrings jaw snap, and made sure he had to take a year off -based on the injury.

[johanjjohnjohn]

fedor needs to fight in ufc...strikeforce ain't nothing

[Newfie4646]

WHAT? omg asif he said that? MMA History? this guy is a fuckin JOKE

[barkevvv]

serious

haha cain and shane carwin can knock the shit out of rogers

strikeforce is a joke

[whole27]

@barkevvv .....LOL....CARWIN IS ABOUT TO KO BROCK LESNAR TOO!!!

BROCK HASN'T FOUGHT ANYBODY AND IS JUST 4-1!

FEDOR IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!

EVEN YOUR BOY DANA THOUGHT ROGERS WAS GOING TO KO FEDOR!

CARWIN ACTUALLY GOT HIS UNDEFEATED RECORD THE SAME WAY ROGERS DID...IN THE MINOR LEAGUES OF MMA! FIGHTING NOBODYS!

FEDOR IS 31-0...NO MAN HAS EVER BEATEN HIM!!!! HE IS EASILY THE GREATEST!!

[Zami9000]

Fedor needs to finally fight Overeem for the Strikeforce belt. At first it was statet that Alistair wasn't ready to fight and thats why Fedor fought Rogers. But Overeem had a fight for dream 1 or 2 weeks ago against Thomson, so what is that all about? Werdum should fight Rogers next.

[damyouz]

i wanna see rogers fight overeem..... let them go at it to see who fights fedor

[Zami9000]

Yeah that would be a great fight too. But it just seems a little odd to me having Fedor on strikeforce without him being their official heavyweight champion.

[WoWpwnsrsforsure]

not even close to a buster douglas moment... you know better Ariel... you should know better

[tbra3477]

I think Ariel is just trying to help Coker have a good interview. It's good for the sport if people think he's a good guy like Dana.

[imps4343]

i thought rogers put up a better fight then fedors last 4 opps

[knizz1235]

"He should get a rematch he had FEDOR BEAT BLOODY AND HAD HIS HEAD BOUNCING OF THE MAT LIKE A BASKETBALL YOU GUYS ARE SUCH FANBOYS OF FEDOR AN DONT WANT TO SEE HIM LOSE TO A TIRE TECK FROM SAMS CLUB LOL" less

[phrek75]

Was never close to being a Buster Douglas moment, really comeon haha ;)

[johnapple123]

Ariel is probably the best MMA interviewer out there. Knowledgeable and asks questions that I want to answers to. Some of these other interviewers ask questions that are so awkward it makes me cringe.

[Blindedbythelight]

fedor is just all luck

and its soon too run out

[Spinel79]

come on, all luck, i wish i had a fifth of that luck

[he11dwe11er]

31-1-1 luck?

okay...

your nickname says it all..

[quezcatol]

and?

Noguiera had 31-4 when he lost to Mir, who had 11-3 whats your point?

It depends on who you fight ffs, Gegard with 26-2 last match was vs a guy with 7-4 and that was a even fight, so sometimes the number doesnt say it all.

[pitbull103]

Alistair Overroid should be next for Fedor. That would be a great match. No need for a rematch. Rogers exceeded expectations, but why bother?

[dvsxavier]

I'm getting goosebumps. Strikeforce is going to headline some of the best headliners in the heavyweight division outside of the United States. Brock Lesnar doesn't peak my interest, and that's all that the UFC have to offer for now. And he's recovering from mono. Scott did a great job. His guy, Brett Rogers, lasted longer than those Zuffa puffing losers. Sylvia, Arlovski, and that idiot Barnett who deliberately sabotaged the event by testing positive. Barnett is still ranked in the top 5. STUPID

[region1111]

You're the one who's stupid.

Why would Barnett deliberately sabotage the greatest opportunity of his life?

He fucked the show up for all of us but it wasn't deliberate.

[dvsxavier]

He fucked up the show for everybody, that's why he's stupid. And he's ranked in the top 5, that's stupid, too. Who's he fought. He doesn't deserve to be in the top 5. You think he should be ranked that high. Man, your fucking stupid.

[region1111]

I never said he deserved to be in the top 5, you pulled that out of your ass.

Fuck you. Fag!

[jopat1926]

Dream Match..Not fedor and lesnar...Roger vs Lesnar

[jopat1926]

cung le sucks..overrated beyond belief..no ground game..

[MysticNinjaJay]

Cung Le is an All-American Collegiate Wrestling champion and a Blue Belt in BJJ. Know your fighters before you start talking trash.

[jopat1926]

I know cung le's stats dude, but that has nothing to do with him facing garbage opponents..I practice mma , cung le is a great kickboxer but not a mixed martial artist..i guest he is the best b/c he beat frank shamrock...like i said cung le is uncomfortable on the ground...I tell u what the day cung le submits someone ill buy u a knew ride bro....if u remember he was terrified to go to the ground with shamrock..he was great in his kickboxing days, not gonna take that from him..

[MysticNinjaJay]

You said Cung Le sucks and has no ground game. Neither of those is true. An undefeated MMA record of 6 - 0 6 K0s makes him an MMA fighter. Who cares if he doesn't like the ground game? I watch Cung Le fights to watch his amazing striking not to see him submit someone (he did almost submit Sam Morgan). There's more to MMA than being a good grappler. My only knock against Cung is taking so much time away from MMA to do movies. I'm glad that he's coming back.

[team9champ]

scott please man take gilbert yvel and sergei kharitonov on your show. and dont make fedor vs rogers again, rogers doesnt even deserve to fight fedor, he is uneducated, and he is not in fedors league, gilbert yvel will beat the crap out of brett rogers. I hope Fedor vs overeem is next. ufc gonna fail forever in a few years. if you dont have the boss division you cant tell youre nr1 in the business.

[pokerace420]

ok odds were not against fedor. he was supposed to win. it was an awesome fight. if you all were true mma fans you would be talkin about the awesome fight. rogers proved he is top 3 heavyweights in the world rogers would whoop lesnars ass let alone fedor!

[idz135]

10 years of luck and still goin

[7corde]

for some morons talking here watch it again....fedor will ground anfd pound him to dead ....but this is a " sport " morons.....fedor stop ground and pound it second befor a stopage......where you have brains in your ass.....spek when spoken to....... morons

[manly525]

Yeah he does seem like a sore loser. FEDOR has been in that position before, and he always comes out with the win. Only he does that. BUT ROGERS should humble himself, and not think HE should have won

[knizz1235]

He should get a rematch he had FEDOR BEAT BLOODY AND HAD HIS HEAD BOUNCING OF THE MAT LIKE A BASKETBALL YOU GUYS ARE SUCH FANBOYS OF FEDOR AN DONT WANT TO SEE HIM LOSE TO A TIRE TECK FROM SAMS CLUB LOL

[Yalashaska]

Fedor in most of the fights leed by the nose and get cut sometimes, you should know more before to talk, fedor wasn't hurt at all he tried an armbar for christ sake!!

[knizz1235]

The nose was BROKEN NOT CUT smart guy,and if you knew anything about fighting that affects your breathing bigtime and yes he tried an armbar out of desperation and brett escaped it nicely FACE IT FEDOR FAGS HE WOULD LOSE A REMATCH BESIDES WHO DO YOU WANT HIM TO FIGHT NEXT BIGFOOT SILVA ? OR UFC LOSER FABRICIO WERDUM? KING MO LARRY AN CURLY?

[adassaab]

id love a rematch but rogers was gonna get choked out and next fight id love to see is me kicking your ass bitch

[MastaBlasta22]

You're a moron if you think Fedor would lose a rematch lol. Stop posting and proving how ingorant you are, UFC fanboy

[CoolDojo9000]

You are probably the dumbest noob MMA fan on the planet.

Now go back to watching WWE.

[Yalashaska]

Cut with the caps disrespectful man your comments are too stupid to make then stand out more

[handlas1]

and he didn't....he knocked him the fuck out with one punch.

[viktorkri]

lol i didn't expect people to keep talking crap about Fedor after he won yet another fight where the odds were against him. he knocked Rogers the crap out and Brett Rogers was a sore loser about it. take the loss and move on; Fedor has nothing more to prove. Brett Rogers is 10-1 and Fedor is technically 31-0 so pretty much nobody want's to see Fedor rock rogers again.

[adassaab]

i must break you

[MastaBlasta22]

You're an OBVIOUS hater and come across like a real moron in every post lol.......but I have to admit it's funny laughing at retards like you

[region1111]

I'd rather not see a re-match between Rogers and Fedor.

Give Fedor interesting new opponents who have a better attitude.

[Cali1030]

Same here, no interest in seeing a rematch. Pretty sure, Overeem should be next for the Strikeforce title.

[MixedTracialArtist]

i like ariels smirk

[mr420]

scott scott scott scott!!!!!!

[RoyalRook]

Wooo good interview, thanks.

[vipnext2u]

what rematch? he doesn't deserve a re-match he is a sore loser...

The commentator should be fired, asking horrible questions especially the re-match question...

[FIGHTFANNERD3]

agree

[dcdil21]

scott coker is such a good bussiness man and brett rogers did really impressed me i wanna c a rematch

[FIGHTFANNERD3]

i dont

[EsotericThrone]

Thanks Ariel
