A long-awaited agreement between the Ultimate Fighting Championship and the man considered the world’s best mixed martial arts fighter, Fedor Emelianenko, is expected to be announced by UFC President Dana White on Friday, a source with information about the negotiations told The Times today. The source, who asked not to be identified because he’s not authorized to speak publicly about the dealings, called negotiations between the UFC and Fedor “very civil” just days after Fedor’s scheduled Affliction Trilogy fight Saturday against Josh Barnett was canceled.
It's that time again, Dana White has called for a press conference and it's wait and see what happens. Fedor is in Cali though so it's safe to say the UFC has been in contact. Something big is going to go down at the presser Friday, what, who knows, but with Fedor out of work, Tito Ortiz back in the Dana White buisness, and the fact that this has been a crazy month for MMA, something has to happen.
