Brett Rogers vs Fedor Emelianenko Fight Odds Strikeforce

by Abe Luciano on Saturday, November 7th, 2009

Brett Rogers vs Fedor Emelianenko Fight Odds Strikeforce: The much-anticipated mainstream American debut of the man who many consider the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world, sports betting odds favorite (30-1-1, 16 submissions) Fedor Emelianenko [-600 ML] is just hours away as he takes on betting underdog (10-0, 9 KO) Brett Rogers [+400 ML]. This Rogers Emelianenko Fight Odds Strikeforce bout is scheduled for Saturday night at 9 PM ET (8 PM CT), live from Chicago and it’ll be broadcasted on CBS.

For Strikeforce, this is the big star they’ve been looking to land in order to remain alive in this UFC dominated market. “Being on CBS doesn’t hurt, does it?” CEO Scott Coker stated. “I think he’ll resonate because when you get past the shyness, he does have a very charming personality. He’ll resonate. And the beauty of fights is that once it starts, people can understand what’s going on.”

This is certainly reminiscent of EliteXC’s attempt to bring mixed martial arts to mainstream America. Nevertheless, the biggest difference is that "The Last Emperor" is actually a legitimate fighter and one of the best in the world. However, will the Russian feel the pressure of putting on a show on the grandest of stages?

"I have trained hard to do my job," Emelianenko stated. “I know my job and I’m ready for the fight. Everyone has their role and mine is to do the fight. I will go out there and do my best to do my job."
