Bobby Lashley Negotiating To Fight Fedor

[No More Sorrow]

After going 2-0 last year, things are looking promising for former pro wrestler Bobby Lashley’s mixed martial arts career in 2012. One exciting development in Lashley’s career is the possibility of a signing with rapidly rising promotion Bellator.

Breaking the news to Fighters Only when we visited him at his American Top Team: Altitude gym in Colorado, Lashley explained, “It was a contract that was just put on the table... I got the call yesterday so I don't even know any of the details of the deal. I think Bellator is a great company and I would love to be able to fight for them.”

Lashley also spoke about the possibility of a fight with the legendary Fedor Emelianenko. "The guy's got a tremendous amount of fights under his belt... I'd like to fight him.”

According to Lashley, Fedor’s managers are currently looking for the Russian MMA veteran’s next opponent, and his name is on the list of potential matchups. “I'm going to throw everything at him that I can. Of course, my wrestling's there, I don't give a damn what he's doing. I'd put my wrestling up there with almost anyone right now.

“I think that my wrestling would trump some of the things that he has. I know he's a great fighter, but if I fought him then of course I'm going to try and wrestle him down.”

Really not too sure what to even say about this.

Lashley needs to sit himself down. He ain't ready for someone like Fedor. He would get wrecked.

A 50/50 fight, couldn't care less who wins.

Lashley is horrible.

 

[Slim]

Lashley would want to retire as soon as he got hit by Fedor. Shoot he wanted to stop fighting before. He doesn't have it. Thats what he needs to realize.

 

[The Cork]

Lashley should go back to wrestling and Fedor should retire too.

The guy reminds me of Tyson circa 2004.

Lashley is crap and has no chance in MMA, just return to pro wrestling..
