Nowadays this is less know, with the premier MMA organisation more known for nurturing talent from the beginning and developing it over time.<\/p>\n<p>However, that wasn&#8217;t always the case. For years the UFC were known for signing top talent, particularly during their golden era. White and the UFC were absorbing promotions left, right and centre.<\/p>\n<p>Although this was the case, they were never able to sign arguably one of the greatest MMA fighters of all time &#8211; Fedor Emelianenko.<\/p>\n<p>Emelianenko is one of the biggest &#8216;what ifs&#8217; that never came to competing in the UFC. The legendary Russian fighter is quite possibly one of the greatest heavyweight&#8217;s in MMA history, but never proved it in the UFC.<\/p>\n<p>In his first 30 fights, &#8216;The Last Emperor&#8217; defeated every man put in front of him from 2000-2009. He remained undefeated, bar getting stopped on a cut on one occasion.<\/p>\n<p>Although he is one of the GOAT&#8217;s of MMA, UFC President Dana White never captured his signed. One reason for this is because of dangerous negotiations and huge security threats outside of the octagon.<\/p>\n<h3 data-mm-id=\"_1zry8ouwk\">Rogan: &#8216;These Were Dangerous People&#8230; It Got Crazy&#8217;<\/h3>\n<p>One of the main reasons that Fedor Emelianenko never signed for the UFC was due to &#8216;unreasonable&#8217; negotiations, security threats on Dana White and simply dangerous and confrontational talks.<\/p>\n<p>The famous podcaster and popular UFC commentator revealed in a recent episode of the <em>Joe Rogan Experience<\/em> that Emelianenko was controlled by some gangster-like Russians, who were very confrontational:<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_bjgawanyj\"><em>&#8220;Fedor was controlled by some Russian people that were very rough men &#8211; gangster-type characters,&#8221;<\/em> Rogan explained on his podcast.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_bjgawanyj\"><em>&#8220;They had a bunch of negotiations with the UFC but they were very unreasonable demands. They wanted to own a piece of everything.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_bjgawanyj\"><em>&#8220;Negotiations were very intense and very confrontational; they got bad. Dana [White] had to up his security. These were dangerous people, it got crazy,&#8221;<\/em> concluded Rogan.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_bjgawanyj\">Despite his accolades, &#8216;The Last Emperor&#8217; never fought in the UFC. In his twilight years, Emelianenko fought in other MMA organisations such as Bellator and Strikeforce.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_bjgawanyj\">Fedor retired from MMA amassing a record of 40-7 (1 NC). A total of 31 of his 40 wins came via knockout or submission, before his retirement from MMA after losing to Ryan Bader in February 2023 for the Bellator Heavyweight Title.<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p>Be sure to claim the various UFC betting offers and free bet deals\u00a0available on the\u00a0<em>SportsCasting<\/em>\u00a0site ahead of\u00a0the next UFC pay-per-view.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UFC colour commentator Joe Rogan has revealed that Dana White was forced to give up on an all-time great MMA fighter after dangerous negotiations and security threats.
