One of the hold ups seems to be at what weight the fight will take place, as Coker had asked for the fight to take place at light heavyweight, but Fedor's camp wasn't so receptive to the idea, "We asked Fedor if he'd come down to 205, and that didn't come to a good result," said Coker. "So, you know, we're going to keep pushing and hopefully have something to announce in the next two weeks or so. Right now, the fight's not made yet. Sometimes it's the little things – and I don't want to get into the contract negotiations – but it's the little things where somebody wants this, somebody wants that."
And although Fedor and M-1 haven't had the greatest past when it comes to negotiating with Zuffa, Scott Coker insists that there are no issues when it comes to making a deal with them, "The contract's already in place. We have a multi-fight contract with Fedor, which will continue. He will fight in July or August some time. So that's going to continue. The contract thing, it's just the details now."
