Dana offered FEDOR more than any other fighter (regarding provisions like allowing him to fight in SAMBO competition, allow FEDOR to promote another company while in UFC (M-1) and give FEDOR his highest salery to date per fight.) FEDOR turned down the UFC because his management asked DANA for 50% of PPV revinue and make FEDOR a part owner of UFC... no crap Dana refused. So the only to blame for this is FEDOR. He can call his own shots and fight tomato cans and remain a "what if" in MMA circles... It'll only work for FEDOR if strikeforce can start making money, but I train with some Ceasar Gracie guys (Jiu Jitsu) and they are saying that there is some issues with Nick Diaz getting his pay checks for his strike force fights... If they go under, UFC will be alone in the US market again... i wonder what kind of offer FEDOR will get if there is no competition
