Ratings would be big for that fight if it were to happen

Since these are two of my favorite fighters, I would hate to see it, but I realized it would be HUGE in Japan. Maybe save it for a retirement fight for both of them in a couple of years? I think Wanderlei gets KO'd hardcore so I don't want him coming back after that.

With the three year NSAC suspension, I could possibly see Wand finishing his career in RIZIN which would be cool. That style of fighting suits him best.

yeah it would be great to see wand kicking and stomping again those rules and the ring were made for him the haters nothing new with their shit talking . 

Wand is a warrior through and through i mean he is even smaller than some welterweights in the ufc and he took on heavyweight fighters

I would rather see Wanderlei in Rizin anyway. He can always fight in Bellator in a year. I would assume this makes Wanderlei vs Fedor in Rizin even more likely.

That's right, he was in the PRIDE Open Weight GP and would take on anyone. His fighting style is the exciting in this sport and he needs the rules to go with it.

True i find it stupid how people hate on the guy he  put it all on the line never was in a dull fight not to mention a gentleman outside the ring same with fedor .

 I know they were in pride zuffa fanboys hate/hated pride . I don't hate the ufc in itself it is the tyrant and the fan boys they have which i dislike the most not to mention joe rogan exaggerating everything example ufc has the best in the world and you can tell even he doesn't believe that .

It seems impossible to dislike Wand, inside and outside the ring, I agree.  

Yeah, those are the things I don't like either about them.
