It would be nice to see Fedor crush Sylvia as well as Arlovski but those are just our wishes. In reality Fedor's schedule is pretty much known at the moment. He is expected to complete his recovery till August and make his comeback at the Final round of PRIDE's OWGP in September. There he is going to have a prestige match probably against some "weaker" fighter (since it's the first match since his surgery) and then on New Year's eve event there will be a big title fight between him and the winner of the OWGP. I would really like that to be Mirko because I honestly think that even though he lost a decision to Fedor, he of all fighters has most chance of beating him. He is the only man that managed to hurt Fedor and give him a real fight in PRIDE and had there not been for that stamina problem who knows how the fight might have ended. Fedor's fights with Nogueira were completely one sided and if they fight again it's just going to be the same because in all honesty Antonio hasn't really shown any improvements in his matches since the last Fedor fight. And if someone else wins the GP I don't think that they will have much chance against Fedor. Hunts grappling is still not good enough and he lacks experience, and Fedor is a lot more complete and also more experienced then Barnett as well (against Mirko Barnett couldn't really do anything standing up or on the ground, and Fedor was better then Mirko in both aspects in their fight). Rest of the fighters I think have no real chance of winning this tournament so Fedor's next big match will probably be with Mirko or Nogueira again.

They should also have him fight Tim Sylvia. Most Americans are only familiar with the UFC because of the reality TV show which has only recently enlightened people to MMA competition (versus being true fans, as we are embarrassing at these events......booing at the drop of a hat because they have no MMA knowledge). Pride fans are the BEST fans because they understand all aspects of MMA fighting, not just the knockout.
