While the UFC hosted four events in the span of a week, the major topic of discussion in the aftermath remains the return of heavyweight legend Fedor Emelianenko. The latest fighter to offer his thoughts on the Russian's return was former UFC champion Tito Ortiz, who is confident that Fedor will join him on the Bellator roster. If that is the case, he would love to be the man to welcome the ‘Last Emperor' back from retirement.

"I think Fedor is signing with Bellator, and if he can get down to 205 I would love to fight him," Ortiz told Submission Radio. "I've always fought at 205, I will always fight at 205 because I know I'm in great shape when I fight at 205, but if Bellator could put that together; wow, can you imagine after I beat McGeary, me and Fedor for the light heavyweight title? That'd be amazing."

When asked why he appeared confident in Fedor joining him at Bellator, Ortiz cited the Russian's previous working relationship with Bellator CEO Scott Coker, as well as his recent appearances at promotional signings.

"Well, you know Scott Coker is a straight shooter and I know he's an awesome guy, and I know Fedor has had that great time with Bellator at the signings, and I know Scott Coker and Fedor are good friends, his managers are good friends with him. And you know it just seems like when you're in a good business relationship, things just make sense, and I don't know. We'll see.

"I can't let the cat out of the bag too soon, can I?"
