Strikeforce 'Fedor vs Silva' photos: Josh Barnett says goodbye to Fedor Emelianenko
by Geno Mrosko on Feb 13, 2011 1:21 PM EST
Strikeforce: "Fedor vs. Silva" photos show a snapshot of Josh Barnett embracing Fedor Emelianenko after "The Last Emperor's" crushing defeat at the hands of Antonio Silva in the opening round of the Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix. But was it a farewell from the tournament or the sport of mixed martial arts?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
if you were to read a headline that said: "Drunk Millionaire Dies While Drag Racing Ferrari"..wouldnt you laugh? i would..but since it was Mask everyone got all butthurt...but i still laughed..
Vera has a fan?
Anderson Silva is without a doubt the G.O.A.T. and best P4P to which there's no debate. People may try but they'll lose! GSP hasn't done what Silva has in 2 weight classes plus can't finish people in his own division who haven't moved up from LW. Fedor has less names on his padded resume and was once the top HW but then ducked the best and lost to a guy who was barely top 10. Anderson is the G.O.A.T. no matter what the haters who boo him say. They used to boo Ali too.
scum Josh
I opened my big mouth infront of Two_Words so he pimp-slapped it shut! That’s the last time I challenge his MMA knowledge. Oh yeah, and I like dudes
+1
He was trying to sound smart when they interviewed him, at the event. He was pretty cocky. I don’t like how he carries himself. D-bag for sure
I think he brings a different and interesting personality to the sport.
Roids scandal not withstanding.

...I bet this is what the Old Timers felt like when Mohammad Ali retired from Pro Boxing
I love you homie.
Heres the play by play exchange
Barnett:It’s okay, we all lose sometimes
Fedor:Thank you Jsohy Barnett
BarnettWithout you, I won’t get pushed to be tested
Fedor:I’ll talk to yours and Overeems guy

barnett: no no, the other one

Take the steroid scandal out of the equation and Barnett is the man!
If Barnett would have spent his entire career in the UFC…I am 100% certain that he would go down as the most dominant heavyweight in UFC History!
When Barnett is on, he is one bad mofo….probably the most under rated heavyweight of our time!

He's a scum bag
After what he did to Affliction, he should be banned from mma

What HE did to Affliction?
Affliction failed cuz they had a poor business plan.
Affliction had all it’s eggs in one basket (Barnet/Fedor) and when it didn’t work out they folded.
Do you blame EliteXC folding on Seth Petruzeli?
Learn JiuJitsu, it's fun.

Wait a minute… Didn’t Bigfoot test positive too?? Why is no one talking about him?
Agreed

Fedor Out of Tournament!
No big Surprise to me. Fedor was the smallest guy in the Tournament not to mention the Oldest. If Strikeforce wanted a Overeem n Fedor Semi Final they should of gave Fedor Karitonov. Bigfoot might beat Overeem too. He took a few big shots from Fedor with no damage. Bigfoots head is the size of a HORSE good luck knocking him out….

Look at josh's face
Looks like he has just seen a turd on the ground behind Fedor!
Regarding Fedor, he is an mma legend and without a doubt one of the best of all time. Sadly it seems like his best days are long behind him and after the past 2 fights it’s best for him to retire. Still we should remember the Fedor from Pride when he destroyed all and was the best P4P in the world and not the post Pride version who could crush cans and past-its

Sad how Fedors lost clearly overshadows a great event that shit was fucken kick ass!
I was just as hyped for the Last ufc but like usual the ufc does not deliver as much excitement as SF.(not saying it was bad this time cause it wasnt, was pretty decent)
Anyways Ufc cocksuckers are gonna hate as always no point in trying to argue with a bunch of dumb asses that barely know anything about the ufc let alone mma.

Your bitching like a little kid dude.
UFC has many great event. UFC does events more often then Strikeforce thats why they may seem less exciting to UFC haters such as yourself. I say both companies are fun to watch and if UFC sucks so bad, don’t watch it, oh wait you can’t go without a UFC event as much as you won’t admit it.

They guy is a bichty little kid.
I say one thing that could be taken as an insult to him and have a point in it and all he does is cry and try to argue with me.

Seriously...
Looking at that pic, I keep hearing sad music in my head.
The Image Is One For The Ages . . .
Two of the greatest heavyweights of our time. Legacy fighters that have made this sport a global competition. Bow your heads maniacs and show your respect.
I hate both of them.
But I would give Fedor respect. Barnett not so much.

I'd rather see that than
the Lesnar – Undertaker picture one more time.
Still think Jones is all hype? All aboard the JBJ train - nonbelievers prior to 126 are not welcome.

Sad!
Fedor should have remained completely reclusive! He hasn’t seemed the same since all the U.S. media attention tidal waved him! I guess that dumba@@ self-proclaimed “Manager,” Rumpelstiltskin, or whatever the hell his name is, just kept pushing him towards the media so he could capitalize on Fedor’s accomplishments.

I love you homie.
I was there
two feet to the left of Fedor. I just stood there frozen because it was one of those moments. Having been a PRIDE fanboy for so many years I was really kind of broken up over it. And Josh was saying a bunch of things to him, they embraced for at least a minute.
It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.
Wow, sounds intense.
Too bad everyone cannot set aside their preconceived notions long enough to step back and acknowledge it is hard for anyone to walk away from something they love doing with people they are friends with and make a major change in their lives. It had to have been an emotional moment for sure.
Very cool to hear a first hand account to go with the moment in the pic.
"Pretend inferiority and encourage his arrogance." - The Art Of War, Sun Tzu 孫子
Pursue excellence. Ignore success.
Feel bad for Fedor
But he had his moments and can always say he was the man at one point, isn’t that enough for a lifetime? He has a family no need to take permanent damage from fighting. Live life love your family Fedor, your fans ( not bandwagon jumpers) will always remember your accomplishments…
