I don't know to be excited about this. I followed MMA a lot when PRIDE was rocking and Fedor was the baddest man on the planet. Used to train some MT and MMA too. I fear this is like any other GOAT athlete coming out of retirement, like Jordan playing for the Wizards, a shell of his former self. Then again, this is fightsports and we've had 50 year old HW champions in boxing. What do you think does he still have it?

I wish he would stay away honestly. His last fight was with a washed up Pedro Rizzo. Unless he fights for the UFC title in a rematch who cares.
 
He was undefeated for slightly over a decade, and he consistently faced and beat top 10 contenders for about seven years of that. I think he's earned the right to do whatever he wants in MMA.
 
Todays MMA is so much more skilled then the MMA of when pride was rockin. He should stay retired.
