Russian heavy-weight champion Fedor Emelianenko will take on contender Brett Rogers this weekend in an all out battle.  The fight will air free on CBS at 9:30 ET.  The fight is being presented by Strikeforce and Fedor’s own M-1 Global promotion company.  Showtime will be airing the “Fight Camp 360” on Wednesday, which chronicles the fighter preparation leading up to the fight.  Fedor’s 30-1 record will be put to the test against Roger’s outstanding 10-0 record.  Fedor’s last fight came on January 24, 2009 when he fought former UFC champ Andrei Arlovski, where he knocked out Arlovski at 3:14 seconds into the first round. His last fight was scheduled to be on August 1^st, 2009 against Josh Barnett, but Barnett was denied his license after testing positive for steroids.  Roger’s last fight was also at the demise of Arlovski back on June 6^th when he knocked him out in 0:22 seconds.  This is sure to be a great fight.
