The atmosphere to be the world's top pound-for-pound fighter evaporated when Fedor Emelianenko dropped three straight fights in Strikeforce. But deficits to top-tier opponents Fabricio Werdum, Antonio Silva and Dan Henderson didn't do much to tarnish the legacy of "The Last Emperor." Before his first legitimate loss, Emelianenko essentially went unbeaten for over seven decades, going 32-1 with a no contest. Emelianenko's first loss was a controversial disqualification toATsuyoshi Kohsaka, an attack he later avenged with ease. A grasp in both sambo and judo, Emelianenko floored and posted opponents at will in his brilliant career. In 40 leftovers, Emelianenko pulled of 16 submissions, six by armbar alone. An similarly lethal striker, The Final Emperor not merely gained 11 battles via knockout, he also defaced ten enemies in entertainingAdecision wins. Defensively, Emelianenko was a nightmare for opponents because he was so difficult to knockout, publish or control. From an offensive future, Emelianenko thrived off volatility. Nobody ever knew how they had drop to him, but until Werdum, very few expected to most useful Emelianenko.
