Affliction, the premier fashion label for men who love hard rock and fast living, will make history presenting its own Mixed-Martial-Arts pay-per-view event in association with Roy Englebrecht Events, appropriately named "Affliction Banned," featuring the much-anticipated return of Russian heavyweight superstar Fedor "The Last Emperor" Emelianenko in association with M-1, supported by an All-World caliber undercard, July 19th at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.

Fedor (27-1), the former undisputed PRIDE® heavyweight champion and Russian M-1 legend, has been universally recognized the past five years as the most dominating heavyweight in the world. He will face former 2-time UFC® heavyweight title-holder Tim "The Maine-iac" Sylvia (24-4), fighting out of Iowa by way of his native Maine.
The exciting four-fight undercard is loaded with Josh "The Baby Faced Assassin" Barnett (21-5), of Seattle, facing-off stateside for the first time in two years in a grudge match against the only opponent to ever knock him out, Brazilian strongman Pedro "The Rock" Rizzo (16-7).
Three-time All-America wrestler Mike Whitehead (20-5), of Salt Lake City, will battle Brazilian sensation Renato "Babalu" Sobral (29-7), of Costa Mesa, California. 2000 Olympic wrestling silver medalist Matt "The Law" Lindland (20-5), of Oregon City, faces Brazilian favorite Fabio "Negao" Nascimento (8-3). Former IFL® titlist "Big" Ben Rothwell (29-5), of Kenosha, Wisconsin, is scheduled to fight an opponent to be determined in this groundbreaking event.

As long as Fedor was told that he is going to fight Rogers I'm sure he began to train even harder.When he is told to do somethin he will do it to his maximum so Fedor's Average is rogers Maximum. Fedor vs Rogers ... Fedor Wins (By Submission)
c) hasn't seriously fought anyone since arlovski (those exhibitions don't count because they were only half serious and against ppl much lighter than him) and brett rogers dropped arlovski much quicker
d) he is at a disadv because of his weight, reach, and height
BUT i'm relieved to see that tim sylvia weighed in at 263pds. its a complete relief because i believe rogers is gonna weigh in at 6'5. so fedor still has the adv in speed, accuracy, and experience.
Yes, he dropped arlovski much more quicker, but it took him three punches to take him to TKO him. It only took fedor a solid punch and arlovski was completely KO'd difference between KO and TKO...

difference between KO and TKO...
a) fedor's first time competing in a cage, i know he has his own cage but competing and training are two separate things
b) he recently got married and has probably been binge drinking for a week (takes out of his training camp)
And im surprised he was even given the title of a professional fighter with his disproportionate physique.
