Fedor breaks from training, wears Speedos to take polar bear plunge

Fedor Emelianenko will always be a mysterious character. The former PRIDE champ, who had a 10-year unbeaten streak snapped last year, still operates in old-school fashion. He continues to train in remote parts of Russia and last week he even took the polar bear plunge. From Bel.ru

Even 20-degree frost has not prevented today, Epiphany, the faithful bathe in Stary Oskol river waters. In one jordan plunged ordinary citizens, officials and athletes. Multiple world champion in MMA Fedor Emelianenko on this day specially arrived in Stary Oskol, to purify themselves and gain strength and health for the whole year.

The black tights are a nice touch although Fedor's body type, 6-feet, 230 pounds, is probably better suited for the red trunks worn by fellow "Russian" pro wrestler Nikolai Volkov or currently sported by Japanese star Ikuhisa Minowa.

Fedor is set to kick off the Strikeforce heavyweight Grand Prix with a fight in New Jersey on Feb. 12 against Antonio Silva.
