Fedor Emelianenko got a little mainstream love this week. BusinessWeek ranked him No. 82 on their Power 100 2010 Athletes list ahead of fellow combat sports competitors Floyd Mayweather Jr. (No. 91), Shane Mosely (No. 93) and Brock Lesnar (No. 96), though Manny Pacquiao edged him out at No. 72. It’s a little surprising considering Fedor probably doesn’t make close to what Mayweather and Lesnar make, or at least pull in as much revenue as they do, however their accomplishments were taken into consideration as well, and it’s difficult to top Fedor in that department.

fuck machida and fedor
Hey “fuck machida” you are wise beyond your years.
I feel enlightened now. I understand everything related and unrelated to MMA.
Where in the hell is GSP?
Good question. With his Gatorade and Under Armour deals he should be above both Fedor and Lesnar. I’m really shocked Mayweather isn’t above Fedor too. I don’t get it.
