Mariusz Pudzianowski May Potentially Fight Aleks Emelianenko

The 5-time “World’s Strongest Man” winner Mariusz Pudzianowski tried his hand at MMA recently, and put on a frightening display of raw aggression and power that was eerily reminiscent of some of the old-school NHB dominations that left us jaw-dropped and in awe of how formidable pure size and strength could be.

It appears as if his performance was impressive enough to warrant a possible pairing with M-1 Global fighter Aleksander Emelianenko (brother of MMA god Fedor Emelianenko), although Bob “The Beast” Sapp is also being considered by the KSW promotion for Pudzianowski’s second opponent.

The report was first mentioned by MMA Rocks_PL, and the following translation is courtesy of Middle Easy:

About Fyodor beat up all the rich world's federations. Emelianenko is the undisputed king of heavyweight, man, arousing fear in opponents, and respect for heads of state (in the first place during one of his fights sat then Russian President Vladimir Putin).
