After not looking like the UFC and M-1 would ever be able to agree on a deal for Fedor, both sides confirm that talks have "reopened". This time though it would be an epic acquisition for the UFC, with negotiations being made for Fedor Emelianenko and current Strikeforce light heavyweight champion Gegard Mousasi. Dana White commented saying:
"It's not that I don't want to talk to M-1. I want to get this [expletive] done. I want him, and I want Fedor. I want to do it. And I never say never. They can call me right now, and we can start talking and figure this thing out. I'd love to get Mousasi in here. He should be. He deserves to be."
Emelianenko (31-1) and Mousasi (28-2-1) are both expected to fight again for Strikeforce in the spring. Hopefully this time around the fans will get what they want.
