Former PRIDE FC champion Fedor Emelianenko has already secured his place as one of the most successful fighters in MMA history. From his stoic personality to his remarkable fighting skills that led to a nearly 10-year run without a defeat, everything about the 37-year-old’s career felt noteworthy. Emelianenko (34-4), now in the comforts of retirement after hanging up his gloves in June 2012, is rarely heard from in North America as he enjoys retirement in his native Russia. At the height of his career, Emelianenko was the world’s No. 1 heavyweight and arguably the top pound-for-pound fighter in the sport.
