- Опубліковано 2 лют 2023
- He mauled world’s deadliest strikers in cold blood, revolutionized ground-and-pound and wiped out a squad of UFC champions. During an unprecedented decade of dominance, Fedor Emelianenko conquered Pride FC royal division and went down in history as the greatest heavyweight in MMA. Let’s recall the brightest moments from the Last Emperor’s red-hot sledgehammer spectacle.

No posing, no disrespecting, no unfair sportsmanship, just dignity and skill, that's Fedor
Well, he is brutal tho, but yeah
The good ol days
A model athlete right there.
The GOAT
well said
No one can ever beat him in his prime years . Period . Loses are at the end of his prime. Total mad respect for this ultimate fighting machine .
He had one loss at start, doctors stoppage but yeah from 2001-2009, 28 fights unbeaten defeating legends of the sport
🐐🐐🐐
@@RMD94 No one is unbeatable!!
@@BoyDanny93 forever, yes, but prime Fedor is in my view the greatest fighter of all time, he'd beat anyone in a fight in his prime
@@RMD94 That's your opinion. He surely is one of the greatest MMA fighter, top 5, but #1, that's really hard to say.
As they say "styles makes fights!! so prime Fedor beating literally anyone is over exaggerating. On top of my head, style wise, i doubt he would beat people like prime Liddell, prime Rampage, A.Silva, and Jon Jones. Those guys would knock him out. Pound for pound, GSP would beat him.
@@BoyDanny93 Fedor would absolutely humiliate Liddel , rampage and Silva, it's not even fair with Silva or Liddel as he's so much bigger, Jones is maybe, khabib father always said there was two men who could challenge prime fedor, Cain Velasquez and Jon Jones, I think he destroys Cain but Jon I think Fedor has better wrestling and is a hits harder, I'd like say Fedor by submission or TKO but early 10s era Jones he's probably the only person that could have a chance
Fedor, in my opinion, is the best fighter ever, and the best thing is that he doesn't look as dangerous as he is!!!
Jones, GSP
@@reallebron236bro anderson instead of gsp
@@reallebron236 jones? lmfaoo. he was a punching bag for 4 rounds against alex and ramirez. even DC with short hands and less height outstruck him for 3 rounds. So imagine a heavy puncher like francis, fedor or aspinall would do to him.
@@Pixel_FX is this bait? He managed to beat them both albeit close and is still unbeaten. Fedor has been finished numerous times and fought inferior competition. DC outstriking him? Did you even watch the fight? Didn’t he beat Gane, who is more technical than all 3 of those guys on the feet!
@@reallebron236 bruh please. Alex literally sent him to hospital. Dana obviously don't want his cash cow to lose. That will be a huge money loss for him
Watching his punches make me physical grimace.
Absolute legend. The fact he’s the most humble champion I’ve ever seen just adds to his badassery.
I’m so honoured to have witnessed him active (albeit the twilight years of his career).
Greatest fighter of all time. I’m a huge Jones fan but I think Fedor would wipe the floor with him.
Yes, i don't think any heavyweight stands a chance with prime Fedor. Floor wiping indeed.
No emotion, calculated, stone cold. Hands down my favourite heavyweight. Massive respect 🙏
He is very respectful.
Same. I knew he was special very quickly.
True spirit of a warrior!!!
real goat
And great sportsmanship. Held back after opponent was down
The fact that he made a point to approach Coleman with a big friendly smile after the fight to ensure his daughters that their dad was okay tells you everything. Pure class, MMA needs more fighters like Fedor.
Came to comments looking for this, thank you.
Ustawka i radość z dolara
Fedor is definitely a better human being than Coleman is a parent.
Why has no one heard of him?
Kids shouldn’t be there anyways I don’t understand how kids are allowed to see someone get brutal beat up makes no sense it’s not a kid sport and no we don’t we fight for money and championships another guy trying to take what me and my family want so I ain’t gonna be nice to him
Speed like hell!! Fedor is legend. Incredible. From JAPAN❤
I love how Fedor doesn't need a single tattoo to show how tough he is.
Oh is that what tattoos are for?
How do you know he doesn't have one where the sun doesn't shine or on the flip side?? Lol. Or on his hands?
@@MichaelMiller-op5sx he has no tattoos get it
@Angelo-yr1en yes he does 2 actually
I have trained so.e with Alexander and met Fedor.
Greatest heavyweight of all time, he had everything. Intelligence, Explosiveness, an unrelenting pace, an unbelievable ground game. Not afraid of any challenge. Hands down heavyweight GOAT
The greatest of his time sure, of all time not so!

Fake it until you make it...

Fedor in his prime = Best damn figther in history…and a truly kind gentleman.
Indeed !!
1 guy would have rivaled Fedor in his prime and possibly beat him....Jon Jones.
The guy was not just an ultimate badass, but also put in an amazing show.... it was never boring watching Fedor
This man certainly deserve the utmost respect. As calm and laid back as it gets. Took care of buisness with class. Enjoy your retirement. A true legend to not be forgotten 🏆
Amen brother
So he's not your no.1?
They call him Last Emperor for a reason!
Fedor said after his first lost..."The one who doesn't fall doesn't stand up ". What a legend!
Why do we fall, Bruce? So we can learn to pick ourselves up!
try to stop the video of him punching so fast
The one who doesn't fall is the better fighter, standing up for all of thier reasons that got them there is outstanding!!

And in terms of fighting, eben khabib, Jones or khamzat already lost Sparring Sessions or Amateur Matches in previous Combat Sports.
@@burningthecandleatbothends1658 right!
Seeing his first defeat in ages really broke my heart but hearing his greatest quote taught me that you can't be the best forever. Even after everything, He will always be the number one MMA fighter in history. Technical skill, Sportsmanship, Just his insane skills in remaining calm to begin with just expressed a really theatrical intimidation you rarely saw. Especially in Pride!
The fight against Mirko Cro Cop was perhaps his best match to date in my opinion. Long live The Last Emperor!
*his first defeat ever !
@@5Cdarkwing agreed. an illegal elbow is not really a defeat so I can see it as his first official defeat.
@@santi425 regardless of whether it was an illegal elbow, Fedor wasn't defeated, doctors wouldn't let him continue but it was a tournament and one man had to move on.
Спасибо,что любите наших бойцов. Фёдор легенда,без преувеличений. Это и называется "Русский дух".
I went to his fight in NJ vs Silvia which he lost. We were all so down.
Fedor would have been more dominant (record wise) if he fought smarter. In his early and mid career he got a ton of submissions. Then he started to fall in love with his punching and went away from grappling and even kicking. He became one-:dimensional.
his humility is whats so respectful
Fedor's aggression was on another level. Even today I hardly see this kind of constant pressure mixed with power at the same time.
Don't forget his hand speed and accuracy. He was absolutely deadly standing toe to toe.
His speed, transitioning from boxing to judo and wrestling was just incredible.
sambo
It's likely one martial art: Sambo
Some people say he would be just average among today's heavyweights. I disagree, I don't think any heavyweight today has his explosiveness, just insane. , that coupled with his fight iq would make him come out on top.
His striking and speed in the brawl mixed with his power was just awesome. He can turn a brawl into a wicked takedown insanely fast. Fedor said fuck grappling I'm gonna use sanbo to use knees and elbows instead of chokes. Beast
@@ryaniam22 Hell yeah youre right. Even more specifically, i think what really sets him apart is his accuracy. His ability to consistently connect, and to do so with such extreme power and speed...thats what made Fedor such a monster. Add to that the fact that the mf is tough as nails, and there is a very solid argument to be made for him being the greatest heavyweight of all time.
His ability to remain calm and never panic was his greatest asset. He could become a machine with no emotions basically. He also had amazing stamina and endurance.
Peleaba cómo peso gallo, siendo alguien de los pesados

Thanks UA-cam 😊😊😊
Greatest fighter in the history of the sport. Just amazing skills and relentless spirit
I'd say that the biggest achievement of Fedor in MMA is that he fought and won against guys on steroids being natural himself. And still his technique, speed and skills were just at the whole another level. Mad respect to this fighter, he definitely wrote himself in the history of MMA. And maybe even more important thing that he was a great and kind, sincere and humble person. True champ!

He was just so, so fast. And accurate. Was easily the most dangerous man on the planet for a long time. Always a true sportsman. Had a blast watching him.
After having been a UFC fan for several years, my intro to him (and the Pride: Grand Prix tournaments) was from the first time Rogan talked about him on his podcast. I remember two things. First, he talked about the fight with Nogueira, and the insane ground & pound, especially when Nog was in the corner, eating the viscous blasts Fedor was raining down on him. The second story was about the Randleman fight, which had “the slam”, and the kimora that Fedor secured right after being dumped on his head. I had been listening to the episode, and had to wait until I got home to find those fights on UA-cam. After hearing Rogan describe it, and as crazy as he made it sound, I was wondering if it was actually as bonkers as he had said it was. Well, he was right. When I was watching both of those fights, it was the first time I experienced a bit of anxiety from how brutal some of the action was. Plus, Pride rules allowed the stomps & kicks to the head, and the crowds in Japan are eerily quiet during the fights, so that definitely ratcheted up the brutality of the sport, compared to what I was used to seeing. Oddly enough, the kimora Fedor submitted was the toughest part to witness. He really wrenched Randleman’s arm & elbow, and in the quiet arena, the scream he yelled out in pain echoed throughout the building. Instantly, I was a fan, and watched a few more of his fights, a highlight reel, and a great mini-documentary on his mysterious training regiment, and the mystique of his rustic, hardened by the elements & Cold War era type lifestyle. A must watch, for any fan of Fedor, or mma in general.
Btw, I somehow hadn’t seen the fight, or any of the footage from his fight with Herring, until just now. Holy shit, was that an epic, one-sided ass-kicking. That was a career altering fight for Herring, who quickly learned how badly outclassed he was, and wore it smeared all over his face. So scary!
And by looking at his face during the walk out and stare down you’d never know it.
he would dominaded the ufc 100% sure ,, for me he's te GOAT

yup my first favorites mma fighter, no tattoo, no trash talking humble and sportsmanship
Turning boys into men by fire of combat.
and religious.
With cardio like the Diaz brothers, his opponents got trucked the entire match
how he not only survived that suplex on his head at 12:59 but went on to win is incredible. Super respect.
He moved his arm and landed on his shoulder in the last moment, so thankfully no direct head suplex. Still, if nothing else, coming back from that and even winning the fight in the next half minute made him a legend. A true champion.
@@mkoprc Good catch, didn't notice that.
Восхищаюсь Фёдором Емельянинковом 👍🙏
Amazing. I’ve never seen anyone like him. The combination of calm, measured precision and absolute unbridled aggression and violence is terrifying.
And flipped it off as soon as the bell rang, shaking their hand and appreciating good sportsmanship.
It's important to note that he reigned when MMA was beyond violent as well with the head stomps and soccer kicks.
And speed. As a bigger guy you don't always notice it, but he had incredibly fast hands.
Correct... his speed is incredible for his weight. 😐
Fedor was a very well prepared athlet but overall a natural born talent.
At his prime, it seemed Fedor couldn't be submitted. No matter your style of fighting was, he was going to steamroll you........period.
Great comment 👍.
What a career. Very smart fighter. Not just adjusting fight to fight, but I mean really he seems able to instantly change his game plan. This was a true martial artist and the heart of a warrior.
glad he never bowed to the ufc..
Hell yeah. You take him down and the next thing you know you're tapping from an arm bar. The guy could adjust to any situation.
Now this man is a true champion.
Long live Fedor.
Fedor Emelianenko the best all time.....
The best thing about Fedor is his looks. He doesn't look like a typical fighter,he looks like a bank clerk in his physique and face. Absolute legend
I always think of him as a landscaping guy or a farmer, riding on a tractor somewhere

Too right. And it's these understated dusties that are the strongest.
@@4FYTfa8EjYHNXjChe8xs7xmC5pNEtz A farmer is a good comparison, don't mess with farm boys...they have unknown power.
A grocery clerk
I think he looks like a classic psychopath....never looks anyone in the eyes, just straight through them like they dont exist.
I've never seen anyone "throw" a punch the way Fedor did. His entire body launched his devastating punches. GOAT.
Have you missed Tyson's fights ?
I'm surprised he didn't kill anyone! 😅😅😅
I agree. He is the #1 best mma fighter ever
Imagine him getting angry and going beserk ....hehehe
He's lucky he never fought modern MMA fighters. He only beat strikers that couldn't wrestle or grapplers that couldn't strike lmao
This guy made me love MMA, he's a legend. Much much much respect for him.
His take downs, those fast, accurate and powerful hands, brutal ground and pound and an elite submission game made him the most complete fighter of his generation.
The most complete fighter in the world looks like average dad.This guy had the absolute sleeper build.Crazy stamina , crazy power , crazy technique.
Yea I agree. Daniel Cormier in his prime was similar style.
Obviously no where near Fedor. But same build, similar gameplan

@@alstefan4814 Fedor is overrated, he loses to Bigfoot, Henderson, Werdum, it's scary to tell what would happen to him in a fight with DC, and they are the same age.
Regarding the fact that he is modest, this is not modesty, arrogance Fedor never thanked Wolf Khan for giving way to the fights, he agreed with the coach on the occasion that he is a Dagestan, not a Russian.
Just a legend with humble soul
Watching him on YT back in 2008 and falling in love with mma. Been a fan since , introduced my friends to mma and now we watch the fights as often as we can together. Thank you fedor
I remember Fedor being so unbelievably respectful of everyone, and showing true concern and respect for other fighters who he thought he might've hurt during the fight. The way he let go of Randleman's arm, after the submission, holding it, and placing it in a position next to his body, hoping he wasn't hurt, and not wanting to cause any damage. I love how Randleman picked him up, and put him over his shoulder, holding his arm up, showing how much respect he had for Fedor. That big smile that came over Fedor's face was great! I can't remember what Fedor said verbatim about Fujita's punch, but it was something to the effect that he had never been hit that hard in his life, and said he hit like a mule! There will never be another Fedor. Poise, confidence, humble, kind, respectful, and an insanely talented fighter. I'm happy to have watched him through all the years, from the beginning. Jon Jones may be a badass, but he, as far as being the GOAT, no. Fedor emobodied what a GOAT REALLY is.
Yea, you didnt need to feel any shame in being a fan of him.
He was a great image for the sport by his behaviour.
Well said, Fedor indeed is the greatest ever fighter. Period.
There will never be another era like 2000-2008 in MMA
I look at Fedor and then consider our Conor McGregor and just cringe... he is an embarrassment to Ireland, for all his wins and his money...
Fedors humility won my respect above all his other attributes, truly a worthy champion.

Respect to Fedor.
This was peak MMA. Fedor was always so respectful. He was definitely one of the best ever.
He's my GOAT. No one goes on a 10 year win streak like that at HW. He did it being very undersized for a HW and he never played it safe. He lost much of his athleticism but none of his punching speed as he got older. He's been way past his prime for quite some time now but i'm glad he came back and fought. His fights are always entertaining.
Yeah there's no doubt. Big Nog is my favorite heavyweight MMA fighter of all time, and beat just about everybody there was - but he wasn't a match for Fedor.
I realise he's indeed a massive GOAT contender!

He fought in pride in a ring. It was fixed.
@@clintsaines9274 If you have seen Fedor's fights, you would have to be nuts to think the matches were fixed. If you know Fedor's character over the years, there is no way on Earth he would agree to a fixed fight. You think Big Nog agreed to 3 fixed fights? You think Cro Cop did? You think Randleman (multi time NCAA champion wrestler) or Matt Lindland (Olympic silver medalist and World Champion in wrestling) would agree to a fixed fight? How about UFC HW champ Mark Coleman (Olympic wrestler and 2nd in world championship)? Coleman FREAKED OUT when he lost to Fedor.
Love how humble he is never gets on top of the cage and throws his hands up just accepts the win without any emotion
Emilianenko is geatest warrior All The times......

And lifelong MMA Fan aswell !! Truly the Last Emperor

Impossible 🧢
Youre not kidding man, this HW monster never runs out of energy, you can see it in all of his fights - fucking incredible
Cardio is usually the Achilles heel of the heavyweights. Most are spent by the second round. They end up leaning on each other for the rest of the fight. I can’t speak to his training regimen, but Fedor never ran out of gas. The guy was truly a machine.
Let me guess. He did it in the snowy terrain of Siberia.
Much respect for Fedor. I love how he wasn't really cut or buff, yet could k.o. monsters with ease and all with no emotion shown and a very calm yet violent fighting style. AMAZING! and always had respect for his opponents. We will miss you The last emperor!
he is one of those guys thats just naturally tough and heavy, and very fast hands on top of that. even if he never trained he would be one of those guys that can beat up almost any normal person.
when Fedor strikes hes meant for a kill, never underestimate his humble appearance
The best!! Long live the last emperator 💪🏼🇷🇺💪🏼
I don't give a damn, I cry watching Fedor. That is how good he is. Its not just the fighting , its his classmanship. He is a good man
His path in mma...the people he beat is what makes him a legend. One of a kind. Thank you Fedor.
This guy was doing suplexes to heavyweights and superheavyweights how badass is that
Fedor's ground and pound is the scariest I've ever seen. No one else can generate that much power from that position
And with his inhuman cardio, he just kept up the punishment round after round,, as Nogueira and many others found out.

The torque that he gets on his punches is just sheer madness. Watching him devour Goodrich was difficult to believe even as it happened . . . man vs. child. And Big Daddy was no child!
Goodrich was a punching bag in K1...so so bad
His punches don't get nearly the credit they deserve IMO. He was a master of perfect timing and throwing punches from anywhere. And they always looked soft and relaxed but landed like meteors.
He looked like a construction worker or something, not very impressive by MMA standards even at the time. But he flowed like water, could strike from any position with perfect timing and penetration, and his grappling and anti grappling skills were unbelievable. Still my all time favorite by a wide mile.
its the hips man,,
he leans in so much more than anyone I have ever seen, in slow mo they almost look like super man punches , he just puts so much into each one. No wonder so many folded after he connected with their chin. If that didn't do it people tapped awfully fast in his arm bars

Касательно того ,что он скромный, это не скромность ,а высокомерие Федор ни разу не благодарил Волк Хана за то, что он ему дал дорогу к боям договаривался с тренерами по причине того, что он дагестанец , а не русский.
@@user-rk3uw2pu4i он был 10 лет номер 1
Потом устарел.
Дак вот в те самые 10 лет он любого победил бы.
И dc в том числе

Ты чо так жутко тупишь???
Ты не с Украины ли?? 🤭😁
@@fuckyoufuck федор украинец дурачок.
До страйкфорса не было ММА. Стоило Федору встретиться с равными соперниками, как тут же пошли поражения , а победы одержал он над качками, кикерами, борцами будучи представителем по сути ММА в кимоно.
Peleo como un verdadero caballero gano y nunca humillo y tambien recibio sus derrotas con honor. Un verdadero guerrero🎉
Simple humble but dangerous no one will gonna be like him anymore my only number one fighter !
Very humble no trash talks very respectful a great man and a true champ. Strong talented and fearless ❤️
The best fighter in history. Still fought at age 45. Just incredible
No. The best was Andy Hug. He was a truly legend...
Дрался - это громко сказано)
@@davidciurus3950 elaborate lmao. Sammy schilt better k1 fighter. But Andy hug was very entertaining fighter
@@davidciurus3950 Are you kidding? HUG would never stand against EMELIANENKO. Literally.
@@davidciurus3950 I said in myself "Andy who??"... After searching I realized he lived less than Emelianenko's career in this sport 😂
Anyway, What makes Emelianenko the greatest fighter in my opinion too is that I heard of his name before I know what MMA is, the only fighter who lost a fight only because he wanted to.
An absolute legend, my favorite fighter and a class act.
So Fedor who's on my Mt. Rushmore, still severely underrated. These young Gen Z people need to watch this video to realize what a G.O.A.T. he was 💪
Baddest man to ever live imho. Cant thinknof one mma fighter that could compete with him. He was built different on another level.
Dan Henderson KO'd him in Fedor's VERY FIRST LEGIT FIGHT
@@robjohnson9270and again at the end if his career,never 4get that uppercut ❤
one of the things I loved about Fedor was that he wasn't complacent.
Like, he gets out of Nog's armbar attempt and immediately looks for an opening to kick him in the head. And the way he did it wasn't unhinged in the way we thought of Vanderlei. It was just like a focused machine. So you never saw a fight with him being boring; he was just on a relentless pace to put away his opponent with any tool that was available at the moment.
I try not to be a fanboy but Fedor man, he was the epitome of a fighter for me, and still is.
💯💯
The Manny Pacquiao of MMA, RELENTLESS! 😊
@@boipiodos1018 The Lerdsila from mma 🙏🏻
I agree. I think one part of his success was that he always stayed on task. He wouldn’t get crazy or unfocused. Everything he did have a purpose, and it was to do only one thing and that was to win the fight.
Le meilleur Combattant poids lourds de tout les temps...
Class of MMA. Grapling, Boxing, Ground game , submissions, reversals, a complete fighter.
Sou Brasileiro, terra de Minotauro, Anderson Silva, Vanderlei Silva, Aldo, Belfort, Cigano... Dentre outros... Mas Fedor é o número 1... Não existe outro igual a ele
muitos dizem que ele não foi pro ufc portanto não enfrentou os melhores pesos pesados, porem em seu auge ele derrotaria qualquer um, ele era brutal visceral e inteligente.
ok... mas me orgulho do Werdum!!
Сильву тоже уважают как человека и бойца,в России и не только!
He beat Cro Cop too.
@@cristianpaulino3185meu caro ele lutou sim contra todos os melhores no seu auge e venceu todos, na época do pride o pride era muito superior ao UfC, e mais o Fedor nunca correu de uma luta e sempre enfrentou quem fosse, só começou a perder depois de velho…veja o cartel dos maiores do UFC, nenhum deles chega aos pés do cartel de vitórias do Fedor…nem mesmo Jon Jones, Kahib, Anderson ou GSP…
His fights against Nogueira and Cro Cop are amongst the very best the sport has ever seen.
His response to the Randleman suplex defies everything. To be slammed that hard and just keep going is unbelievable.
@@maziqbal4818 Unfazed, absolutely cyborg 🤖
@@MasculinityMindset the thing is Fedor’s demeanour, body language and expression bely the absolute monster inside. No shouting, teeth baring or animated histrionics. Just the relaxed, down to earth and measured entrance to the ring. Comfortable in his own skin and yet the assured knowledge he is absolutely the hardest meanest and toughest human being in any setting.
@@maziqbal4818 Agreed.
word man
Fedor Emilianenko! the best warrior in the world forever and ever!!!!
Like a documentary! Great video, great expression and ofc great man FEDOR EMELIANENKO!
Fedor my favorite fighter of all-time. The Last Emperor 🕌
The champ 🏆
Fodo 💪
Best fighter of all time, the real legend of MMA.
The goat nobody was stopping him in his prime.
It’s not an opinion it’s a fact - the true GOAT
Этот человек стал популизатором ММА в России и кумиром многих мальчишек 90 - 2000х годов. Он и в жизни такой, как на ринге. Спокойный, правильный, рассудительный. С его примера выросло целое поколение чемпионов.
I’m a sixty year old retired MMA school owner and I think he was and would be the best today if he was still 28 hahah never saw anyone as good or as exiting to watch and he’s a gentleman
Правильный - точно нет😂, а остальное - 👍👍
Picking the Man up when he's lost, that's true sportsmanship and heart. What a legend this guy is.
Here's the thing. Feodor did nothing unusual for the Slavic culture. Do you see the difference between the western and the Slavic cultures?
Sometimes in the west your enemy will pick you up, but It's more than probable that's its a rare occurrence.
The humble beast. Best fighter of all time
I think he is the most humble fighter Ive ever watch
I completely agree. The man took down people who outweighed him, outreached him, outeveything'd him, pretty much. He is also the first to demonstrate combat sambo's effectiveness in MMA. He moved and performed his technique as if he were 5 weight categories below HW. The GOAT!
F😅gcfh
Yeah, Sambo and/or Greco-Roman Wrestling are the best "base" you can have if you want to do MMA.
The scariest thing about this guy was how calm he was no matter who he faced or what situation he was in.
