Aleksander Emelianenko, the younger brother of Fedor, will compete against former Olympic wrestler Eddy Bengtsson at ProFC: Commonweath Cup on April 23 in Moscow.
Emelianenko (15-3), who last fought in March 2009 at a ProFC event against Ibragim Magomedov (video above), has won his last six fights.
Bengtsson (4-1) of Sweden competed last November in the Mayor's Cup tournament in Russia, losing to Red Devil Sports Club fighter and tournament runner-up Alexey Olenik.

I think I just figured it out. Dana White should go after Aleksander Emelianenko and have him face Brock Lesnar. If Aleksander wins, then there is no need for Fedor to come to the UFC. If Aleksander loses, like he did to Crocop back in PRIDE, Fedor will come and get revenge.
If Aleksander didn't have the "Hepatitis cloud", true or not, over his head he'd be fighting in the US.
