The obvious question: who wins this fight? Alot of hoops are going to have to be jumped through before that can happen...I'm still thinking it won't at this point. Fedor has to get through Josh Barnett on August 1st...then if that win happens I could see them trying to negotiate some kind of deal. It's going to be extremely difficult though, the UFC is incredibly restrictive with the terms of it's fighter's contracts, and Fedor's M-1 Russia management team is difficult to work with as well, I've heard they make alot of additional demands on contracts. Not to mention the salaries of these two fighters for this bout will be astronomical. They are going to have to agree to some sort of one-fight deal, most likely. The UFC may have to give in on a few things, that's my guess. Even then, the chances are dim.
