The end of an era officially arrived tonight in New Jersey. Fedor Emelianenko dominated the sport’s landscape from 2001-2006, but age, lack of size and an ever-evolving heavyweight field has caught up to him.
Fedor couldn’t overcome the massive Antonio “Big Foot” Silva and lost via TKO on a doctor’s stoppage at the end of two rounds. Silva had Fedor mounted for most of the second round. His repeated blows closed Fedor’s right eye. The ringside doctor and referee Dan Mirgaliotta stopped the fight before the third began.
