Michael David Smith of MMA Fighting got in contact with M-1 Global and got the promotion/manager to go on the record regarding the backroom chatter of a split between Fedor and Strikeforce (for a more detailed account head to MMA Fighting for the full story).
1. Fedor isn't fighting on the April 17 Strikeforce card because he wanted to have more time to prepare following the recovery from his hand injury.
2. Whether Fedor will fight Fabricio Werdum on the May 15 Strikeforce card is currently being worked out.3. Everything is fine between Fedor, M-1 Global and Strikeforce. Behind the scenes, maybe there are issues between M-1 Global and its co-promoter, Strikeforce. But M-1 Global isn't going to make those issues public. What they told me is that everything is just fine.
4. Fedor is not ruling out fighting in in Japan this year.
5. Neither Fedor nor anyone involved with M-1 Global has had any recent talks about Fedor fighting in the UFC. They were emphatic about this one. We don't know when or where Fedor is fighting next, but according to M-1 Global, it's not in the UFC.

Fedor in the UFC!!!
I knew it!
They are not fooling us anymore, we know the truth! It’s gonna be great, Fedor will probably meet vinner of Lesnar vs Velasquez/Carwin in his first ever UFC bout. Fedor UFC Heavyweight Champ in his first match! Can’t wait!!!
The almighty AK-47
That pic is going to replace the other fedor pic I have of him holding the A to the motherf-ing K homeboy. The AK’s best and most prefered assult weapon in the world, terrorist, militias, gorrillas, armies, and even the best fighter in the world put their trust upon the almighty AK-47.
At this point I could care less where he fights…
