Page 2 of 2:    <<  Prev   1    2  
-M-1 wants to work with other organizations. If Fedor is M-1's champion it doesn't mean he cant fight for someone else. They want to make the best fights between every organization.

-As part of his new deal, Fedor requested — and received — a special clause in his contract that requires M-1 Global to offer the UFC heavyweight champion $1 million more than what the UFC offers for a fight with Emelianenko. Emelianenko specifically mentioned that clause when a reporter asked him about rumors he was unwilling to fight certain opponents, such as Tim Sylvia, if he were to sign with the UFC.

“I hope (that clause) demonstrates how I am not afraid to fight anyone,” Emelianenko said.

-There will be events all over the world.

-M-1 says Europe has a lot of great fighters that are unknown to the U.S. fans. What M-1 wants to do is bring in fighters from all over the world to showcase everyone.

-Cox talks about how they want everyone in the USA to know who Fedor is.

-They believe that when a lot of the UFC fighters contracts run out, they will be looking for an organization that will treat them better as fighters.

-They would love to do an MMA event in Madison Square Garden.
