Nah Fedor would have said he felt Arlovski had him in trouble if he actually did. It doesn't make a difference to him, either way he won via round 1 knock out. In fact it would probably make him look better if he was getting hurt and then pulled out that knock out.
Anyway, I hope Barnett mans up and takes the fight against Fedor, although he's going to have to look a lot better than he did in the Yvel fight to win. The gameplan he utilized against Yvel would probably work well for Fedor though. Instantly go for the takedown and try to improve position, don't go for submissions that could end up losing an advantageous position and GNP/LNP his way to a win. Avoid standing with him and sitting in his guard at all costs and I think Barnett could take it.
Most likely would end up with Fedor sprawl and brawling his way to a KO or pulling out a submission from the bottom, but Barnett has a decent chance.
