Werdum: Fight With Aleksander Holds Keys to Toppling Fedor

Fabricio Werdum sees some keys to victory over Fedor Emelianenko in his 2006 win over the Russian's younger brother, Aleksander. In that bout, Werdum says he excelled as a "jiu-jitsu fighter" and believes he could utilize a similar strategy to topple the world's No. 1 heavyweight at Strikeforce/M-1 Global "Fedor vs. Werdum" on Saturday in San Jose, Calif.

In this Sherdog.com video exclusive the world-decorated Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt discusses both his mental and physical preparation for the bout he's waited his entire fighting career for.
