i have said here and other places several times, randy is over rated, and nobody with a 16-10 record could possibly be "the greatest ever". the only thing i will give randy credit for is the age he is fighting at.

this fight should also show all those who wanted to see fedor and randy fight, that fight would have been a slaughter in favor of fedor.

randy needs to retire for good and take over the color commentary for the ufc. amazing enough he signed a SIX FIGHT deal. i mean that is MINIMUM of 2 more years and more like 3-4 yrs. CRAZY!

Yeah he needs to give it up. I don't understand why Dana allows him to keep coming out of retirement to fight. Dana made Chuck Lidell retire, maybe there's more money to be made with Randy losing than Chuck.

Because the powers that be in the UFC don't want Randy to fight Fedor in the Strikeforce promotion. Randy has expressed much interest in this fight, and so has Fedor. By signing him to an extended contract, the Ufc will prevent this fight from ever happening.
