Showtime Readies for Fedor vs. Rogers with Fight Camp 360
by Larson Hill
Over the past several decades, Mixed Martial Arts has become one of the world’s premiere sports with events bringing in millions of dollars and attracting former pro athletes and even celebrities in a battle of the fittest. One of the biggest stars to come out of the MMA thus far is Russia’s Fedor Emelianenko. With CBS Television Network broadcasting the Fedor vs. Brett Rogers STRIKEFORCE/M-1 Global live on Saturday, Nov. 7 (9:00 PM, ET/delayed PT), Showtime Sports is taking MMA fans behind the scenes of Fedor’s training and personal life as the towering Russian trains for one of the year’s most anticipated MMA fights: Fedor vs. Rogers.
With CBS ready for the live MMA battle and Showtime Sports airing the second instalment of Fight Camp 360 focused on the upcoming fight between Fedor and Brett Rogers, both fighters will be featured as they train for STRIKEFORCE/M-1 Global Saturday Night Fights. Showtime will premiere Fight Camp 360: Fedor vs. Rogers on Tuesday, Nov. 3rd at 9:30pm EST.
With so many preconceived notions of what MMA fighters are like, Fedor and Showtime team up with embedded director Ron Yassen in Fedor’s training camp in Stary Oskol, Russia to show fans who the man behind the fists is and just how much dedication and perseverance are needed in a sport where you literally have to fight for your life.
Nicknamed "The Last Emperor", Fedor Emelianenko will face the undefeated Brett Rogers in a premiere event on CBS on Saturday, Nov. 7th at 9:00pm EST.
