Do Brett Rogers and Rampage have the same person teaching them how to interview?

Man Fedor always uses interpreters.. so ing frustrating. They either incorrectly translate him or they incorrectly translate the questions to him..

The CBS show was pretty good. Werdum, Mousasi, and Fedor all overcame some early stumbles to pick up impressive wins, and Shields/Miller was a great technical battle, although the last two rounds were a little plodding.
Sengoku 11 earlier was pretty entertaining as well, but marred by annoyances. Hatsu Hioki was the victim of a robbery that makes Rua-Machida look downright legitimate, and courtesy of Japan's penchant for non-title affairs, we now have Sengoku's middleweight champion coming off of a TKO loss to a Mamed Khalidov, who I imagine will now have to repeat his performance to take the actual title.

well fedor looked human tonight, i was on the edge of my seat. the ground and pound from rogers was painful to watch, especially since fedor couldn't get his back off the cage. i mean that initial blow to his nose couldn't have been staged better, it was like watching the end of rocky 4 lol
Mousasi is one arrogant fighter, hands down a lot, looks like he's walking into to play a pick up basketball game. He's got the quickness & precision of strikes to end matches quickly thats for sure. I had only heard of him one other time but he's def on my radar now.
for the only title match of the game i was a bit disappointed. As big of a douche as Miller seems to be, Shields grappling game was the last thing i wanted to watch. I mean i understand there is a lot of skill going on there but for the only title fight of the night surely we could of had something a bit more interesting?
I have to say i think the only reason i enjoy MMA is the great column writing in regards to all the fights. I do enjoy the sport but really the hype and sheer storyline that go along with each fighter make me such a fan.

My fedor action figure retains its value!!! YES
I was surprised my Miller for lasting that long with Jake, it was a wild ground game, which is very boring to watch.
war fedor.
now I wait until my wife goes to sleep so I can watch Sengoku :)

YOU KNOCKED ME OUT! THAT IS WHY I'M SUCH A BADASS! I'LL TAKE YOU ANY TIME, ANY PLACE! JUST NOT HERE TONIGHT! BRING IT, PUNK!

A more accurate translation.
Q: What did you see Fedor to go out after the first round and knock out Brett Rogers?
A: Well first of all, definitely an amazing fighter. I was looking at his leg movement and tried to catch him based on that and his overall reaction.
Q: Exciting fight, do you foresee a rematch with Brett Rogers?
A: If Brett wants one, of course, why not. Big thanks to him for this fight
Host: Fedor Emelianenko, congratilation
Fedor. I would like to thank everyone for your support, for cheering for me. At this time, in Russia, in my home country, millions of my countrymen were praying for me. This is their victory, not mine.
