MMA Shocker: Fedor Mending Fences With Armbarred Bear

The MMA media can ask some pretty darn funny questions at times, and not intentionally.

Of many zingers on Monday's Strikeforce conference call for Fedor Emelianenko and Brett Rogers, a reporter asked Fedor whether he killed a bear with a fork and a knife prior to a fight, as his brother Alexsander claimed to do.

Really?

Tanya, Fedor's Russian translator, attempted to relay the question while stifling her own laughter.

For any other fighter, it would have been a cue for silence and/or mockery. But true to form, Fedor kept his rebuttal emotionless.

"Whatever people say, or whoever says anything, I haven't met the bear personally," he said. "I've had an opportunity to see only in the zoo, but from what I know, the bear is a very strong animal and it's really very difficult for a human being to cope with him with some simple effort."

Thanks for clearing that up, Fedor. On to CBS.

What a great sense of humour. And another sexy motha-fucka to boot.
