Frank Trigg On Drinking With Fedor | "I realize that this fool speaks English"

By Jamie McAllister
Frank Trigg comments on Fedor Speaking English to Rebellion MMA Radio.

“A lot of my stories are usually weird stuff from after parties that you really can’t talk about but going to Japan a lot you really learn about a lot of different people. You see Jake Shields over there all the time, you see Gilbert Melendez over there all the time and it’s just a weird situation when you’re in this foreign land with all of these Americans but the most interesting thing was drinking vodka with Fedor. [We] are sitting there in the hotel bar and we’re talking and we’re having a great time and all of a sudden I realize that this fool speaks English. I was like ‘Come on man, you’re really going to pull this?’ It’s not good English or clear English but you can definitely understand it enough to talk to him. He was just like ‘Nah, I don’t like doing it because I don’t feel comfortable on the microphone’ and we were just talking for five minutes in a straight English conversation without a translator. Then he goes ‘You know it’s funny’ and I go ‘What’s that?’ and he says ‘The more you drink vodka, the better you think your Russian is.’ That was when I first started realizing how the world works.”

    Love vodka and all hail Fedor!!

  2. ieatvag says:

    wouldn’t fedor have said, ‘The more you drink vodka, the better you think your English is.’

  3. bj says:

    I think Fedor was implying that Trigg was speaking Russian all along (which Trigg wasn’t, it was Fedor’s clever way of saying “keep this a secret”)
