"God, I hope so," said UFC President Dana White in our FanHouse live chat today. "That's not up to me. I can only try so much. There's only so much I can do."
According to White, it's a simple matter of Fedor and his representatives not wanting to fight in the UFC. Fedor's people have always said the UFC's fighter contracts are too restrictive. The UFC has always said that if everyone else in MMA agrees to its terms, Fedor should, too. And as a result, it's an impasse.
I have my doubts about whether Fedor will ever set foot in the Octagon. But like White, I sure hope to see it.
