Strikeforce/M-1 Global Conference Call Report 8.06.09
Vadim Finkelchtein says that no one knew who Brock Lesnar was one-year ago, that he is a product of the UFC hype machine and mocks the fact that he only has had five fights. Also, Fedor says that the UFC doesn’t care about the fighters, that they aren’t treated as humans and that people should respect his decision.
Fedor is asked about shying away from the UFC in favor of smaller promotions. Fedor says that he takes the better deal for him. He says that the UFC has a bad attitude and doesn't treat the fighters like humans. He doesn't like their lying, and says that they gave him one deal, and they told the internet another one. The UFC offer was "miserable".
