ROSEMONT, Ill. — A Russian mixed martial arts fighter who has connections with President Donald Trump, the president's personal attorney Michael Cohen and Russian President Vladimir Putin was questioned this week by the FBI, his manager confirmed Saturday.
Fedor Emelianenko was questioned by agents who met him in his hotel room on Tuesday, manager Jerry Millen said before Emelianenko's Bellator MMA heavyweight fight against Frank Mir. Millen declined to detail his client's conversations with the agents.

Putin has attended Emelianenko's fights, and the 41-year-old fighter has been photographed with the Russian president. His connection with Trump dates back to 2008, when he was signed by Affliction Entertainment, a fight league in which Trump had an ownership stake. Trump announced a joint venture involving MMA and Emelianenko at a news conference on June 5, 2008.
Affliction ended up folding for financial reasons after two events, both headlined by Emelianenko.
Cohen was the league's chief operating officer. Two weeks ago, the FBI raided Cohen's New York offices, hotel and home, seeking information about a nondisclosure agreement he brokered with porn star Stormy Daniels days before the 2016 election. Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, has said she had an affair with Trump in 2006.

As Sherlock Holmes said, when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. And Mueller apparently having eliminated all other explanations for Hillary's loss except for Fedor, this must be it.
They should run a cage match between this guy and Mueller.
I went to the Trump Hotel in Chicago, had a drink at the bar and took some pens.
Think I’m next?
Maybe. Have you ever met a Russian, or had Russian dressing on your salad?
So Comey and Rosenstein use a BS document to spy on a Presidential candidate/ elect and Mueller interrogates a Russian MMA fighter. F’n Sessions.
What they should do is throw ANYONE under investigation into the water tied up.
If they come to the surface they are guilty.
If they drown, they’re not guilty :)
Nothing’s changed in hundreds of years.
Just different boogeymen.
Good golly, they should also go after any waiter that gave him Russian dressing on a salad
flat out intimidation to try to get something, anything so that he doesn’t slink away empty handed.
Only way to take care of this is to toss Comey and all of his pals into general population lockup sometime soon. This IG report and the work by Huber better come hard and fast
Fedor knocked out Frank Mir last night in 48 seconds.
I wonder if the FBI agent was Chael Sonnen wearing a dark suit and sunglasses.
Did the ‘FBI agent’ demand to know Fedor’s strategy for his next fight?
fbi interviews with the Ring Girls?
It’s pretty pathetic. Total tenuous gruel by Mueller and the rest.. Trump ran hospitality and entertainment type businesses where many foreigners were customers from around the world.
I stayed at Trump International.
I swiped the pens, the letterhead, business cards and three robes.
Even took all the soaps, paper coasters.
Currently have a couple months of soap from Doral and the nice paper napkins from the tray of the coffee maker....
Dorky, I know...
The Coup attempt continues.
Not hating Donald Trump is now a crime.
Have you ever watched a Rocky and Bullwinkle episode?
But it’s all a massive, masterful sting, and Mueller is a white hat.
::eye roll::
Of course, it is not a crime to do business with Russians. Likewise, it is not a crime to have one’s picture taken with a Russian.
The goal here is clear: if you are not a swamp dweller, but you dare to think you can get elected, you and everyone you know or have associated with will be crushed. This is not just against Trump, it is against the people who demand transparency and honesty in government and who believe that politicians should represent them instead of accepting their place as peons for politicians’ enrichment.
The corruption of our politicians and political appointees is mind-boggling.
Couldn’t find their security safe, huh?
