Ive seen a youtube video of the guy fight... he cant hit, but he seemed quite cagey and awkward: and I suppose he must have adapted a good defensive style for MMA and some grappling skill to close fights out. A guy Lesner's size and build - all Fedor has to do is keep him running after him for 5 or 6 rounds and the guy will be shattered.
