Fedor Emelianenko: Dana White never cut or fired me!

OK, here is the most recent VIDEO interview with the one and only Fedor Emelianenko. The interview was taken after Fedor's third loss in a row - to Dan Henderson.

I translated the main points for you, motherfuckers (not in particular order). The important parts are in bold.
My personal comments (are in Italic brackets and in red).
Enjoy what The Last Emperor has to say:
  • - Fedor says he is feeling great.
  • - Confirms once again that he thought the Henderson stoppage was EARLY. (tell me about it!)
  • - Says he trained for Hendo the same way he trained for his other fights. Doesn't think his training camp was the reason for his loss. (he is pretty wrong about this)
  • - Says he felt he could win at any moment in his last three fights. He felt he was holding the victory in his hands. But the victory slipped - it was God's will.
  • - Has never felt grudge or anger against an opponent.
  • - Not sure about rematch with Hendo, just wants to keep fighting. (good news!)
  • - Gives priority to his new born child, says his focus is on his family now.
  • - God is #1 in his life because God gave him life, family, etc. On earth, family goes first, though.
  • - His relatives feel for him but keep supporting him and never told him he should quit.
  • - When asked about his post-MMA future, Fedor answered: I will keep fighting for now. Eventually, after this will keep training youngsters but would like to do some work for the benefit of his country too (politics???).
  • - Thinks there is no need to train with "import" sparring partners. Believes in the high abilities of the guys from his training camp. Says they did the best to prepare him for his fights. (de ja vu?)
  • - Says Dana White never fired him because Fedor never had a contract with Strikeforce/Zuffa in the first place. Says his contract was with Showtime. Says that loud-mouthed statements like Dana's should be ignored. Says that Dana is just being typical Dana (i.e. - is talking bullshit)
  • - Says his recent contract was very well crafted to avoid previous problems that he and his management team had with other orgs like Pride and Affliction
  • - Doesn't think too much about who his next opponent may be. Says there are many worthy fighters in the Top 10 and the Top 20. (Top 20? damn...)
  • - Would like to hang out and train a bit with Vovchanchin and Josh Barnett
  • - Gives advice to young fighters: never think about the fight before the fight. Do not fight before the actual fighting has begun. Before fights Fedor prefers to listen to orthodox music, play chess.
  • - Whe he is away from home, Fedor likes to relax by reading books. When he is home, he relaxes by being around his family, by going to Russian banya and by hanging out with friends.
  • - Fedor always feels anxiety before fights. Not necessarily before the fight but during the day of the fight.
  • - Asked about what he fears, Fedor answered: I believe in God, it's all up to him.
  • - Says he became religious 3 1/2 years ago. His mindset changed after visiting a monastery (nunnery). Before becoming religious  he still tried to live a conscious life but sometimes his consciousness was broken by things he did. (for some reason the time he became religious coincides with the time he started to decine???)
  • - He doesn't have dreams, just desires. His desire at this stage is to finish the building of his new house and move there with his family.

Fedor "loses" to Dan Henderson via TERRIBLE early stoppage ROBBERY

Fedor Emelianenko and Dan Henderson
So, Fedor just lost to Dan Henderson...This is what his MMA record will show from now on - a loss to Hendo. However, what his record will not be showing is the way he lost: via ref robbery!

The early stoppage in a nutshell:

Fedor loses position in the ground game and while on all four gets hit by an upercut from Dan Henderson, coming from behind his back and underneath his armpit. As a result Fedor suffers a flash knockout for about one second, he then recovers and starts fighting back immediately, but Herb Dean stops the fight in a great hurry.

What kind of bullshit is that???! Fedor was robbed.

When Brock Lesnar was flash KO-ed by Cain Velasquez and when he hit the ground face-first, the referee, Herb Dean, gave him all he time in the world to recover. But when Fedor got rocked by Hendo, the same damn referee, was in a bloody hurry to call the fight off!

BULLSHIT! BULLSHIT! BULLSHIT!

So, you bums don't think that Fedor deserves at least the same recovery time they gave to fucking Cheick Kongo when he got dropped by Pat Barry?
Don't you, punks, remember the Paul Daley vs Nick Diaz fight? Don't you? Are you telling me that when Daley flash-KO'ed Diaz and Nick did a faceplant and was out for a second, the fight should have been stopped? Don't you, morons, remember what happened when Diaz recovered from that short flash knockout? He freaking beat the snot out of Daley - the guy who just knocked his ass out for a second.
...Bloody teenage punk ass emos...

You know what?  Screw you, screw Herb Dean and screw Herb's closest friend - Dana White too!

Not to get too deep into conspiracy theories, but hey: you know what I mean? *wink*
