Fedor Emelianenko to address media Wednesday

I THINK THIS IS IT.... HE SIGNS WITH STRIKEFORCE/M1 AND GETS TO KEEP HIS SOUL,LOL  

Following the cancellation of "Affliction: Trilogy" and the collapse of the entire Affliction promotion, the man widely considered to be the world's top-heavyweight, Fedor Emelianenko, is currently without an upcoming fight.

And as the world waits to see where the fighters from the now-defunct Affliction promotion end up, speculation continues to mount regarding where Emelianenko will fight next.

Emelianenko, himself, will address some of the speculation on Wednesday at a press conference in Anaheim, Calif.

"Since the cancellation (of "Affliction: Trilogy"), there has been a great deal of speculation regarding Fedor and M-1," Emelianenko's manager, Vadim Finkelchtein, stated in a release from his company. "On Wednesday, the media and fans will be able to hear what's going on with Fedor from the man himself."

Finkelchtein's company recently issued a statement that suggested now could be the time "The Last Emperor" finally makes his way to the UFC – if the world's largest MMA promotion was willing to deal with M-1's contractual demands.

"Of course, it still doesn't imply we are ready to accept any conditions [the UFC] will throw at us," Finkelchtein said. "We want to talk to the UFC about having Fedor compete against some of their fighters, but only within the framework of co-promotional efforts with M-1 Global."

UFC president Dana White has publicly stated that he wants to put together a fight between Emelianenko and UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar, but the UFC exec has had difficulty in landing the Russian in previous negotiations.

M-1's press conference announcement offered little insight into what Emelianenko will share, and a curiously worded passage left "The Last Emperor's" current contract status unclear.

"Emelianenko, 30-1, is perceived by many within the industry to be a free agent and it is believed he is being courted by every major MMA promotion in the world," read the statement.
