I agree. Both sides need to make some concessions. But with Dana calling Fedor's management "crazy Russians" in interviews, I just don't think it would have the right atmosphere for negotiations. Fedor and his management feel insulted (as they should) and I think if the UFC wants this deal to happen the owners should talk to Fedor directly.

Stop talkin' bout stayin' the course
You keep on beatin' that old dead horse
You know they lied about why we went to War
I can't take it no more
