I think its somewhere in the middle and he's for sure a shrude business mogul but he does care about his fighters if you hear the stories Bisping has about him.

Even Conor today wont get a deal like that, so it was more of a buisness move by Fedor. Fedor is smart and knew he was pass his prime and wanted to get as much money possible.

Lol Tyson of MMA? a clown comment right there, Tyson is the GOAT who ducked NOBODY. Fedor didn't want to go to UFC because he was a fraud afraid of being found out in the UFC so was comfortable being juiced to the eyeballs fighting in worked shoot fights in Japan fixed by the Yakuza. Ironically this is how Tyson lost to buster, the bout was in Japan and the Yazuka sent tons of coke and women to Tyson s hotel match before the bout and he was weak af for the fight.

This was a really great video. And I love how Dana White talks about money over and over, while Fedor talks about respect, and how some things are more important than money. That was the ultimate criticism against Dana. Take away the money, and he has nothing to offer, and Fedor had achieved so much that he saw nothing of value in Dana's proposals.

Wow I never knew how good of a man he is. Standing up for kids being their hero and living by what he says he does. Much respect

Fedor never needed the UFC. Watching this guy fight anywhere was always a spectacle. He is, what every person on this world should aspire to be: A man of his principles and morals. True to himself and what he does. Hardworking, non-boasting and humble. Win or Lose. Fedor will always be one of the best. Спасибо Федор.

The calm way he carried himself was the scariest quality. He was skilled in all aspects of MMA. He was my favorite fighter. He showed genuine respect for the sport and the opponent. I’m not sure if he was more classy or skilled. Either way it was a high moment for the sport when he reigned atop the competition.

Fedor will always be my GOAT. Dude was always such a stand up guy, and very humble. Someone worth looking up to. To see all of the legends of MMA show up for his retirement fight says a lot about what kind of man and competitor he was, and it brought tears to my eyes. Enjoy your retirement The Last Emperor

This really made me shed a tear. I was born in 1997 and fedor was pointed out to me as the greatest when I was a small child. My Uncle always talked about him. So while I was growing up and going through my personal battles in life I always looked Up to him. He was pretty much what I considered the perfect hero. Calm, high in integrity with a big heart, and dangerous in demand. I really wish him and his family the very best I will pray for him this night. Good will always prevail.

Men like Fedor can be trusted. They are motivated by goodness, character, and spiritual richness. By love 👊🏼❤️

Fedor is truly a hero of MMA. Think about how few fighters put their foot down and stood up for their rights back then, Fedor had some balls of steel.

Fedor is the greatest role model in this sport.Humble to the end yet he went through his opponents as if he was not human.

Loved your video. Great production. Very professionally put together. Editing was flawless. Keep up the good work.

Easily one of the best documentaries I have seen on Fedor. Great job!

Dana saying, “anytime I say something, I tell it exactly the way it happened.” Is probably the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard him say.

It says alot when some of the greatest fighters in history are all on the mat to celebrate a legend like Fedor! A champion worthy of the title.

wow, thank you for making this. I had only the merest inkling of the man Fedor is. Truly amazing from any perspective, but considering what he grew up with, and when and where he lived.

Amazing video man. The ending with Fedor and all the legends will always be one of my favorite moments in MMA.

The raw emotion I felt through out the whole video. So damn well done!! Especially the part about Kadyrov and Fedor’s daughter. I didn’t know that ever happened and yet you see some of these UFC fighters sucking him off.

I remember reading that in a Bloodyelbow article from Karim Zidan. From what I remember, Fedor criticized Kadyrov at the time for organizing an MMA fight with his kids. Of course, Kadyrov and Khabib, who at the time was Kadyrov's BFF, didn't take that criticism well. And Kadyrov did the things he always does, I.e. lethal retaliation. There was Also recently a story about a Chechen fighter who had one fight in the UFC, and he ended up dead after he distanced himself from Kadyrov.

Great production work ! Thanks for posting

Knew some of the history, but this video really filled it out. Thanks.

Fedor has always been a stand up guy, an honourable person, good morals and good character, we need more fedor's in this world

I never knew he stood against Ramzan Kadyrov. Mad props to the man

Moral Values are always greater than Money Fedor is a living example

Can't believe I get to watch this for free... The production team did a stellar job creating this video. So cool. Thanks a lot, man

This was a treat to watch. So much mystery surrounding this humble fighter, and seemingly good-natured family man. There was footage & pics that I hadn’t seen before, especially from his younger years, and when he was in the military. Hadn’t seen any of your content before watching this, so I liked & subbed. Gonna check out a few more of your videos. Thanks!

There couldn't have been a better tribute to him than this documentary. Very well done.

Legend.... His farewell proves that he is one of the G. O. A. T ❤

Whoever edits your videos is incredibly talented.

The man will always be known as the biggest icon in the sport of mma. He was undefeated for 11yrs and he did all that without smiling once. The GOAT 🐐

The absolute best mma documentarian in the world. Production value is through the roof. Thank you Patrick 🙏

Something I noticed no one is talking about is Patrick Gavia pulling such a beautiful quote from Alexander in his later life. Paraphrasing this but him mentioning that all children are born heroes and that their behavior later in life as adults dictates whether or not they remain that way was some seriously powerful ideas when reflecting Fedor’s life. Absolutely incredible video editing and journalism here, Patrick. And to do it so beautifully in such a short, KZread audience worthy film. Just hats off, full standing ovation. Cheers

goosebumps allover when the guys greeted Fedor at the end. what a legacy.

*We will never see another Heavyweight reign like Fedor's in Pride. I'm so glad that I had the privilege of watching his career. Fedor is tha GOAT. There is no other.*

Not a guy to mess with and seems to stay humble among people. This guys is legend.

The most humble and respectful mma fighter of all time. Never disrespected or even raised his voice at his opponents. A true martial artist.

The editing on this video is outstanding. Literally a movie.

We highlight Fedor as a God, as a Legend, as an Emperor… But to Fedor himself, he is simply a man, a man of good will, a man of integrity, and a man of honor.
