          M-1 Owns Fedor (or at Least His TV Rights)

This contract is forever. Forever, ever. M-1 Global will be selling TV rights to these bouts for as long as there are televisions:

4.4. Telecast Video, Ownership: Contractor and Fighter agree and acknowledge that Global shall be the sole owner of, and shall have perpetual use and control of, all rights of whatever kind and character in and to the Bouts including tangible and intangible rights to all films, recordings, all forms of media, television production and broadcast (including without limitation, cable, syndicated, network and pay-perview), home video cassette distribution, theatrical distribution, non-theatrical distribution, and any other audio/visual/electronic or digital media, prints and copies of materials related to the Bouts and Fighter Services ("Media"), and shall be entitled to solely retain all proceeds derived from or arising out of the exploitation of all Media and Fighter's participation in the Bout(s).
