I remember during the interviews with Randleman how he was talking about how he has a tendency to "admire his work" during fights. He didn't do this against Crocop and if he'd followed up with strikes immediately after suplexing Fedor, I'm thinking he'd have won the fight.

Fedor didn't give him a chance to. Fedor had his hands against his legs (hard to explain) so that the knees wouldn't really connect. Also, Fedor was moving a lot and Randleman didn't have a lot of control on Fedor. Randleman said that when he tried to throw a knee is when Fedor reversed him. Fedor is fucking amazing.

Mikus, that only happened because Randleman gave him a chance to recover. If he had come down with the knees as soon as they landed, it would have been over.
