Fedor Emelianenko versus Brett Rogers Tonight

One of the most intriguing fights ever at heavyweight will happen tonight when the experienced world best Fedor Emelianenko takes on newcomer and knockout artist Brett Rogers. Rogers has little experience with only ten fights (all knockouts) but has dominated and demonstrated tremendous striking power and accuracy. Fedor's ground game should be far too strong for Rogers so it is really a matter of Fedor getting in and taking down Rogers. In theory, that should not be hard for the best heavyweight MMA fighter in the world. Rogers, however, always has a puncher's chance and that is what will make this fight so interesting while it lasts. The fight is being televised by Strikeforce on CBS tonight which adds another interesting dimension. I expect a lot of fans to tune in and get their first real taste of Fedor. For Rogers it could be a huge opportunity to catapult himself on the world stage. Expect a big audience and an exciting card. Don't miss it.
