The Greatest Heavyweight in MMA History - Fedor Emelianenko | Documentary 2024
What do u think about FEDOR
THanks man really appreciate it fantastic Can you consider making a documentary on Mirko Cro Cop ? Please please please a humble request
Josh Emmett documentary too ..he is a beast still at the age of 38
Fedor is the standard of the human image of a Champion.
*Fedor Is a One Of The G.O.A.T.S. in this game, one hundred procent!*
Prime fedor>>>jon jones
He was not only one of the best heavyweights. He was a decent human being and a humble person.
He still is, bro.
He is still alive and well 😂
I wonder if he ever sought revenge for the hit President Kadryov from Chechnya ordered on Fedor's daughter. They beat her up really badly on the way home from school one day and hospitalized her because Fedor had voiced his disapproval about children fighting in Chechnya.
Exactly...humble, respectful and such a great fighter.
Is he dead I thought he was alive don't know about his crazy brother the one with the stars front shoulders and on his knees Russian mafia
Greatest of all time. Period.
40-7 period
@@Baernackel Man was a warrior, more of a man than most . We all lose sometimes in life , no matter what it’s at . “ Every dog has his day” Period ;)
@@Baernackel32-0 in his prime. Period.
@@Baernackel if u know anything about fighting u would know fedor is n will be the strongest fighter to ever be born foloowing jon jones.I still rmeber fedors brother once threw a hat on a guy n that guy split his head open n started bleeding n thats his brother not fedor
who did he beat? LOL bunch of no names and old men
In my opinion, the best fighter of all time. He did not say a word, no one could insult him, and everyone respects him and he respects them.
This is the definition of stoicism. He's a simple man, he doesn't want much, he just wants to do what he does best. The only other thing that matters is his family and his faith. It seems like he has a very clear mind because he doesn't cloud his thoughts with wishfull thinking. I think more people should adopt that way of life.
Fedor is the best !
Fedor don't care about UFC. Sad that we never saw him in UFC. But he is the best heavyweight ever. No one close. He was on top of the world for over 20 years! 💯🥋🥊
I'd say ten years, but your point still stands.
@@ThisHandleWasTheOnly1Available For 10 years he was untouchable. But on top of the world for almost 20 years then.. 😀
He wasn't going to let Dana get rich off him
As much as I hate to say but ! Fedor didn’t need the ufc! UFC needed him! He is single-handedly “history” of MMA !
@@labinott I agree. Espesially for us hardcore fans, Fedor is alone bigger then UFC and there heavyweights. What heavyweight in the UFC is even close when talking about for how long he stayed among the absolut elite. (sorry for my spelling, english is not my first language)
fedor was the best that we have seen till date.
Fedor Emelianenko is final boss of the game
I'm most impressed with Fedor because he never trash talked his opponents but paid due respect to their strengths and abilities.
"If you have Fight Pass, it's worth every penny just for the library. If you've never seen Fedor's run in Pride, you've never seen Fedor and you've never seen a fighter quite like that. I don't know how much these entreaties actually work and get people to go do it but let me just say that if you do, you will be so rewarded with an additional perspective with what greatness looks like and how he was so vastly ahead of the game." -Luke Thomas, Morning Kombat 1. 48 pro fights with a 40-7-1 record. 2. Holds the best win streak in all of MMA (32). 3. Defeated 7 UFC champions 9 times, 4 K1 Champions, 2 silver Olympic medalists and 1 ADCC champion. 4. 29 victories in the first round. 5. 15 wins under 2 minutes and 5 wins under 1 minute. 6. 16 Knockouts / 15 Subs. 7. 9.5 years undefeated. 8. Two-time Rings Tournament Champ, Pride HW & Grand Prix Champ, WAMMA Champ. Poorly educated MMA fans criticize that he fought cans. He fought SOME cans but he beat them in the the way you'd expect him to. What matters is that he fought and beat the very best of his era. Always fun to watch. Always humble in victory and defeat. I got to meet him in 2008 and watch him fight 3 times. The aura of his walkouts - being there in person was special. Truly the HW GOAT.
Разложено по фактам👍
Best comment of the year! 🎉🎉👍😎👍🎉
I thought it was 33 fights
Let's round it up to 10 years for the 🐐 goddamit
The best documentary ever on Fedor till date... Please do consider making a documentary on Mirko Cro Cop too...
Fuck yeah
Story good, fight editing and quality shit. I dont remember 80s Russian TV beeing this little pixel
I love all of my White brothers and sisters.
@@MikeYork-bn1mt I fight you but in the end we drink a vodka together
@@MikeYork-bn1mtcongrats on having the interracial grandbaby 😘
Fedor was my hero growing up. A shorter heavyweight with talent all around.
A great role model for all young fighters. His work ethic, his focus, and his mentality are exemplary.
Fedor 🐐 respect from 🇵🇱
As a Brazilian I often watch MMA podcasts in Portuguese and all the Brazilian legends that fought Fedor (even Werdum that beat him) are unanimous to say he is the Heavyweight GOAT.
Fedor is my favorite fighter bar none even more than Nick n Nate Diaz......Fedor is a kind humble man bcuz he is a Christian man....he fears God so he's not talking a bunch of nonsense....he carries himself like a benevolent King.....actually I love Russian people....they're tough and truthful...u know if they like u or if they don't.....u can't ask more of people
well said brother !
Thanx Bro!@@TheMichaelseymour
At 5'11 & a chunky 230 to 236 was very much a light heavyweight that just didn't cut weight. Beating 7 ufc champions 9 times & 10 other UFC & Pride fc #1 contenders. 32 fight win streak for 10 years & fighting true heavyweights , the best of his decade & winning championship belts in 3 organizations will not be accomplished again at heavyweight.
Middleweight that didnt cut weight**
@@BroHurstmiddle weights ain’t 230 bro
@@matthewscribner3083 most middleweights dont have the amount of fat that Fedor had, do they? At 6'0" with his frame, he would've been a middleweight had he decided to cut weight like the majority do...bro
@@BroHurst why would he cut 50 pounds when he could just chill and murder heavyweights you slow🤣
Fedor didn’t starve himself and, ask yourself, who is thought of as the baddest man on the planet; Heavyweight champion or Middleweight? Heavyweight. He had no need to starve himself to look pretty. Pretty doesn’t win fights.
Fedor stops whem he sees his opponent go down. Most fighters take that opportunity to get easy strikes in. Thats why I respect him more than any other fighter.
Pride Fedor was the greatest Heavyweight we have and will ever see in the ring.
This man and his brother brought MMA to my life, one of the greatest to ever do it! the best during his prime no doubt in my mind.
This tribute brings joy to my soul bro, thanks for putting it together.
Fedor is a beast. I always looked forward to his matches. I’m not impressed with the blowhard antics of most fighters, and Fedor was a quiet humble champion in a sea of blowhards. I’ve seen all his fights many times, and never tire of seeing them again. The absolute goat. It would have been great to see him humble Brock, but by that stage, he had nothing to prove to anyone.
He stayed around long enough to lose most of his fights in the last 10+ years. Not sure he'd of beaten Lesnar when Lesnar was ontop. Do you hate Brock because of the fake wrestling ? Brock is a hell of an athlete and a freak and he was very skilled. So I don't see it as a given he'd of beaten him. It's a shame thatbfir the past 12 years Fedor kept going and suffered loss after loss after loss. Legacy tarnished
@@CarlosDang3r Who said anything about hate? His legacy is not tarnished, any more than any legend that stayed beyond their prime. The fighting world all know of Fedor's greatness, regardless of your opinion.
@brendonmaher1513 After he lost to Wedum he had a decade of loss after loss , it has tarnished career as a whole. Too many loses to be a GOAT. And you seem to hate Lesnar , you're wanting him humbled is proof of that. Is the fact a fake wrestler came on and dominated for a period a sad sore spot for you Brendon
@@CarlosDang3rLesnar had a great run in the UFC. He was pretty cocky and he got away with steroid use as was proven. It would have been an interesting match as most people would agree. I have no hate toward Lesnar, and your attempt to conflate humbling him with hating him, is just ridiculous. Perhaps your view on Fedor supposedly tarnishing his legacy is a sore spot for you. Whatever the case, it's irrelevant to how most people remember Fedor's greatness.
@brendonmaher1513 Not a sore spot at all. It's just facts. When you fight for over a decade, losing lots and being beaten convincingly over and over, you can not be considered an all-time great.
Heavyweight GOAT !!!!
HE WAS NOT THAT BIG OF A HEAVYWEIGHT BUT STILL THE GREATEST HEAVYWEIGHT OF ALL TIME FOR SURE 💯%
For sure.
His fists were like sledge hammers
*TRUMP 2024*
@@MikeYork-bn1mtlol wut
Fedor wanted to be UFC’s partner but, Dana wanted him to be their subject. That’s why he didn’t join.
Very humble fighter. HE CONTROLS HIS EMOTION IN THE RING.
Just about the most dominant of his era. Not sure how or where to rank him if he was in his prime now. But we don't have to worry about that he's a all time great and if there was a MMA Hall of Fame he would be a first ballet vote getter hands down.
you got to be joking. Now? There is only one good heavyweight now - Tom Aspinal. But Fedor would of find a way to beat him. He always did.
@@steveibiza5516 There's a few heavyweights around that are very, very good. Jones and Ngannou come to mind. I mean, I adore Fedor and wouldn't count him out against anyone (in his prime) but the sport evolves CONSTANTLY.
@@rosalind1635fedor beats them all. Jones only has 1 fight at heavyweight.
@@themodernmacho How you know?
amazing documentary brother.
thanks, mate!
@@PaulStrikerENGdo cro-cop
The man, the myth, the legend Fedor the true G.O.A.T 🐐🐐🐐
His fighting style is really unique. Smooth, fast, explosive.
I believe he is the best but a lot of people i talk to barely know who he is. guess that's a generational thing.
Yeah everyone is raving about Jon Jones
youtube in the end, will make him big. there are more and more fedor docus and joe rogan talked very positive about him
Newer MMA fans probably, can't really blame them, same with a lot of older MMA fighters, especially ones who never joined the UFC. I personally think Sakuraba was one of the best fighters, but newe mma fans usually don't know about him. Not their fault though, it is what it is, if you're a MMA fan you will eventually learn of the older guys in the sport.
This is why I think Judo is a missing art in the UFC. American UFC fans would say wrestling and boxing is the most important; which don't get me wrong, are not entirely incorrect. Those assets are absolutely valuable, but the difference of Judo and wrestling is wrestling is mostly power-based while Judo is more about manipulating the opponents weight balance to take them down; then ofcourse you have newaza too. This is what made Fedor the monster he is. He had trained Judo at the same time he worked out to build power for his boxing.
Preach ! If anything bjj should be taught with judo.
@@joshuas830Problem is implementing Judo into MMA. The only gym that I know who could implement Judo into MMA was Gokor and Genes Hayastan MMA. Sambo is different though
That final moment, with all those legendary fighters in the cage with him... AMAZING !!
"I don't even think he's human" Sums up The Last Emperor perfectly!
GOAT forever and ever.
You’re fucking killing it with these videos, bro. I’m claiming you’ll have over a million subscribers this year. Thank you for producing one of the best documentaries in recent times. Dazn’s Ruiz vs Joshua’s first fight’s documentary is my other favorite.
Fedor ❤
Thanks Fedor, you're the best.
In his prime like we all compare fighters. He was the best hands down!!!!
Lesson from Fedor is - spent less time in tattoo shops and hairdressers and more in the gym and you can achieve wonders.
Fedor is and will always be the best of what all MMA fighters should be. Always respectful, never gloating, always full of compassion and carried himself as a man should at all times. I will never again get to see a man as great as Fedor enter a ring and that is sad, however... I was able to see his first fight in Pride and every fight since then so I got to experience the greatest MMA fighter from start to finish. For that I am grateful. I would love to shake his hand and thank him personally for what he gave to the sport. His combination of peace and brutality will never be seen again.
Yes...im watching it now, great documentary as always. Fedor is easily the Heavyweight G.O.A.T. of Pro MMA, no question. Would prime Fedor beat a prime Heavyweight Bones Jones though? 🤔.. That'd be a hell of a dream fight...I still say Fedor would win...I don't think it would be a easy fight for either of them though.
I just really wanted to see him in the ufc when he was in his prime
Always have enjoyed a long length Paul Striker documentary. Love them!!!
The real MMA HW Goat.
Absolute legend! Thank you for your work, it was pleasure to watch!
the last 4 min made me nearly cry! what a legend! Great video!
Breaks me that not even once will we ever hear Bruce buffer scream FEDDOOORRR THE LAAST EMPORER !!!!! EMILIANENKOOOOOO!!!!
In a Inoki Bom Ba Ye fight on New Years Eve 2003. Bruce Buffer did actually yell Fedors name.

Watch this fight
I will do I was unaware of this thank you
Even John wick would be afraid of this guy
Simply the GOAT 🐐 from the UK ❤
Један једини брат наш Федор!!🇷🇺🇷🇸🇷🇺🇷🇸
THE GREATEST EVER
Yes! I was waiting for the video like this!👍🏼👊🏼💥
for sure the GOAT
CROCOP is my fav fighter… but Prime FEDOR is the GOAT
simply the best of the best
Best Heavyweight of All Time!
Fedor = GOAT.Period.
Fedore ...Congratulations you're a legend...Japanese are hard too please ' you did it 😊
Fedor is fascinating to watch. Fight IQ is nuts, reaction and counters, ability to take opportunity and adapt... Him, Aspinall, Cain, and despite his rep, JBJ are all something special to watch. Unfortunately they are almost all different time periods lol.
Thank you so much for putting this documentary together! Fedor will always be my favorite fighter, a true inspiration and the GOAT in my book. Cheers!
He is just so clean cut , no nonsense 🎉just violence 😂
Really good channel with really good content 💯
thanks ma man
Fr @@PaulStrikerENG
Thank you for this. ❤
Even without fighting for the UFC, he is a legitimate Legend of MMA
It was good to be alive and see fedor in his prime
Fedor was the man! I would loved to have seen prime Fedor in UFC.
Finally someone putting his name on KZhead justice man, cmon teach the young folks the last emperor
Well documented, amazing footage thanks
I have a few contenders in my mind. But if my life was on the line - I had to pick one, who might get told to beat anyone, any weight class, perhaps at random. I think Fedor had a better than great chance against any stylistic match up.
Great documentary on an absolute champion, this is what killed linear-TV! Thank you
Goat 😊
FEDOR EMELIANENKO IS THE G.O.A.T.
What a shame he didnt pusue boxing , he could have been the greatest and richest ever. Still the greatest all round fighter ever and it will take a Herculean effort to come even close to his record or longevity, 24 years at the top against the very best , fought well above his weight , cleanly , never cheated nor duck anyone, if there has been a greater champion in any xport id like to know,,, he even out does big george in the humble and great stakes. Amazing man .
Greatest heavyweight arguably. If he took to boxing, bro you're smoking some good good, he wouldn't have been top 10 for his generation, not arguably, just a fact!
the Goat scariest man walking the planet in his prime quote Mike Tyson
Beautiful compilation!!!
A very well rounded fighter who could do everything very well and he was a man who showed everyone respect in his prime he was unstoppable
Thanks brother for this exceptional documentary
good documentary Fedor was my favourite not just for his abilities and heart , but because of his stoic public persona wins....shrugs "another day at office" loses shrugs "another day at office",, always respectful modern fighters should try to emulate that.
Федя красавчик
Absolutely no doubt about it. only ignorant and arrogant would disagree therefore their opinion would not matter.
not only heavyweight , pound to pound goat period
Randleplexed... rolled. Kimura finish. Fedor was the MAN. Facial expression never changed.
He had control over his emotions like no other fighter it explains why us was in so much control during his fights
Seeing Mark Coleman on here made me smile, rooting for him in his recovery. Freaking hero.
GSP LITERALLY bowed down to Fedor when he met him….look up the video.
Great vid....
Great, great, great documentary!
Fedor makes MMA real ❤
The best ever ❤ Fedor ❤
What a shining example of a human being, he is and was the Greatest..what a man!!
His coach looks like Igor Vovchanchyn. Also one of the best.
My favorite fighter in 2000
Only heavy weight I've seen that could throw a punch, a kick and take down and not break stride. A true legend.
Whatva great sportsman and humble man
He went 9 years undefeated in the best promotion at the time. How anyone thinks that someone is greater than Fedor....no one comes close
Could you imagine Fedor vs Daniel Cormier in the Strikeforce tournament?
😂
Fedor! The greatest fighter of all time!
There will never be another Fedor Emelianenko, no one has done anything close to what he did in his prime. He could have retired undefeated but that's not who he is. I feel bad for people who weren't there to see his dominance. All they know is UFC even though the best fighters at the time were all outside of the UFC. There was no one who could touch him, his entrance brought fear to his opponents.
Russians are such class acts. A real testament to their honour. It’s fascinating that he was born in Donetsk, Ukraine but during the USSR times, thus his Russian identity. I hope his countrymen can come together and end their fighting. He would certainly be a bridge to ending the bloodshed. Also, Lactic acid doesn’t exist for this man! Unbelievable! He was a true ambassador to the sport world wide!
Absolute legend
