1 NC?

(sorry I suck at editing wiki-pages so please have oversight :)) Anyways, isnt Fedor supposed to have 1 NC? If so why isnt it shown in his breakdown-table? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.182.22.134 (talk) 02:06, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

 Done - Some vandal removed it along with parts of the record table. --aktsu (t / c) 02:40, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

question

Why is there an asterisk on Fedor´s lost? --Vik.sanchez (talk) 14:57, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

People have been trying to turn that loss into an NC for some time. My guess someone went the subtle route and threw in the asterisk, and it's gone unnoticed. IMHO it should go.--Cube lurker (talk) 16:11, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
haha thanks --Vik.sanchez (talk) 13:20, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
its safe to say that fedor is virtually undefeated. he really didnt lose that fight but because of the tournament format, he technically lost. i agree that the asterisk should go. anyone who reads the article understands why its a loss.-ski

How on earth can you say "he technically lost." it's the exact opposite of that. Technically he didn't lose. How many times does it need to be laid out for people like you? It was an illegal elbow under the rules. So if it was an illegal elbow and not let's say a perfectly legal punch then yes he would have technically lost BUT that is not the case. The illegal elbow should be treated no different than let's say and illegal head butt. In Fedor's fight with Antonio it was ruled a no contest because of a cut caused by a head butt. How is that any different? I just don't get it. Someone tried to say that it wasn't an illegal elbow because it was an accident but hey I got news for you. The head butt that ended the Antonio fight was also an accident. So there you have it. The exact same set of circumstances yet two different outcomes. Makes absolutely no sense what so ever to me.

Well IMHO the asterisk should be there. You said youself 'if you read the article.' According to the article it should not count as a loss, the only reason it's a loss in the first place is because it was a tournament and in a tournament there has to be a winner, hence the asterisk. How about you make the article say "tournament loss / no contest under MMA rules" or something like that. That way all the people who claim it is still technically loss are still technically right and all the people who know it is technically a No Contest won't have to be etarnally ostracized by a flagrantly illconcieved wikipedia entry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.132.0.255 (talk) 22:13, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Amateur record and Lazarev-fight

When I checked the reference for his amateur record (http://www.kickboxing.com/Media/Fedor-Emelianenko.html), it seemed very similar to the WP article around February 2006 (for example http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fedor_Emelianenko&oldid=41053638). Do we have any other source for his amateur fights? I removed mention of it for now. Also, Lordvader2009 removed the Lazarev fight from the fight record. I know the fight is on YouTube etc., but do we have a reliable source recognizing it as a professional fight? --aktsu (t / c) 19:43, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"The Baddest Man on the Planet"

"Fedor: The Baddest Man on the Planet" was a documentary on Fedor, and I do not believe it's a common nickname for him so I removed 2008Olympian addition of it. Any disagreements? --aktsu (t / c) 04:10, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yeah, I disagree. You removed it once because there was no source, so I provided one. Now, although I have a reliable, verifiable source, you remove it based on your opinion that it is not a common nickname. Jay Glazer and Frank Trigg called him by this nickname on almost every PRIDE highlight show in addition to the show I cited.--2008Olympianchitchat 05:43, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Saw no mention of it being a nickname of his on that source, only that it was part of the name of a documentary on him. They say "The Last Emperor" when announcing him, so I'd guess that's his "official" nickname notwithstanding what fans and Trigg/Glazer might sometimes refer to him by.--aktsu (t / c) 05:46, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Just do a Google search for "Fedor baddest man on the planet nickname -documentary" to see how often it is used without mentioning the documentary, which was named such because it is his nickname: [1].--2008Olympianchitchat 06:15, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Look, I've provided a reference for it from a reliable source. And look at Dan Henderson's article. He has more than one nickname listed. And I am now the second editor to have added that nickname, whereas you are the only one to have removed it, so it should stay until there is consensus to remove it.--2008Olympianchitchat 06:19, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Uhm, so because some people think he's the baddest man on the planet (not that I don't agree, but hey) and find it funny to add it to his article - that makes it so? Should we list "The Running Joke" to nicknames of Kalib Starnes as well because that's what some "fans" call him? Didn't see much more than lots of talking about whether he's the baddest man on the planet or not with that search. Do you have a RS for it being one of the nicknames he goes by? No? OK, then shouldn't it be case closed unless something turns up? When it comes to Hendo, yeah he's got more than one nickname, and there's reliable sources for them being nicknames he goes by, so why would I have a problem with that? (Sidenote, someone apparently added "Decision" as in "Decision Dan" - not one of his adopted nicknames so I'll go ahead and remove that now). --aktsu (t / c) 06:41, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I don't get it. There is a reference cited in the article for an entire hour-long documentary that calls him that nickname. He was referred to by that nickname, and it was used in graphics for him, on the PRIDE highlight shows. If I could also get a source for those broadcasts, I would, but they don't play anymore. It was not just "some" fans, but the official media outlet for the PRIDE organization.--2008Olympianchitchat 06:57, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Meh, you know, when I think about it; never mind me... It might as well stay. If I'm not mistaken, the documentary is "official" in that it's produced by M-1 Global (who's representing Fedor). I was probably just unnecessarily anal about it since I'm tired, but I've honestly never heard him referred to by that before the documentary. So; I agree, the fact that there's a documentary with that name should show it's a proper nickname used about him. --aktsu (t / c) 07:16, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Record is 30-1

Q: Fedor, some websites say that in 2001 you fought with Martin Lazarev in an MMA match at the RINGS Russia vs. Bulgaria II show. More established sited do not have that fight. Did it really happen? A: I did "fight" with Martin Lazarev, but that was in 2000. I won via a choke.

I will change his record soon if nobody does it. Rings is not amateur.Randy Couture and Overeem and others fought in Rings.
