Werdum wants a second fight against Emelianenko

Former UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum said he wanted a rematch against the legendary Fedor Emelianenko. The Brazilian said that he still considered "The Last Emperor" the best fighter in the history of mixed martial arts, so he wants to give him a chance to get revenge.

“I want to fight Fedor. I have a lot of respect for him and want to give him a rematch. We have a history with him - a fight in 2010..." the Brazilian said.

Werdum and Emelianenko met in June 2010, and then Fabricio strangled Fedor with a "triangle".
