Fedor Smashes Rogers at Strikeforce Saturday Night Fights



A moral victory for Brett Rogers was all he was able to win against "The Last Emperor" in their Heavyweight bout on CBS Saturday Night Fights. Rogers was able to have moderate success in the opening stanza as he bloodied Fedor's nose with a stiff jab to open the cut.  In round two Fedor knocked down Rogers with a hard looping overhand punch that sent Brett's eyes rolling back in his head as Fedor pounded him out to get the TKO. Rogers did land some hard punches on the ground in the first, and was able to negate any submission attempts by the Russian cyborg.  Fedor found himself in a little bit of trouble, but overcame adversity as he always does to get the win.
