Fedor will NEVER come to the UFC.

It's unlikely, but it's not impossible. With this latest Strikeforce nonsense, it becomes more and more possible. M1, apparently, made no money off the Rogers fight, and haven't even made it official that Fedor will fight Werdum in June. It's the middle of April and still nothing official out of Strikeforce or M1. If these two can't come to an understanding, then M1 either takes Fedor East (Japan, Korea) or he comes West and fights in the UFC.
Fedor has two more fights left on his M1 contract. It could be he fights Barnett in, say, August, and then some freakshow for New Years Eve, then retires or goes into semi-retirement (the occasional can/freakshow out of Japan). Or he parts ways with M1 and signs a lucrative deal with the UFC. If he does, I"m sure he could negotiate a giant contract and negotiate that he cannot get cut. Maybe sign a 6 fight, 15 million contract.
Again, the UFC is unlikely, but it's not impossible. It does seem like the Strikeforce relationship is done though.

He owns part of M1. HIGHLY doubtful that he leaves that behind.

26 of Fedors opponents record has wins and losses as close as 24-15 with some 14-14. These are called cans. I would give Fedor 5 true wins and an Arona loss.

But kind of ironic that one of these few true wins was
complete domination
of the Pride Heavyweight Champion, not once, not twice, but three times. Further, the domination occurred on the ground, the very strength of that champion. Fedor did what Silva and GSP refuse to do: fight the best in their area of expertise.
