[Andrew]

If you don't already subscribe to Business 2.0 (you should) then go pick up a copy. November's issues has a fascinating article on the Fertitta brothers and the UFC. Good stuff.

Search for vids of Crocop, Vanderlei Silva and Fedor
You'll drop your pants. UFC is nothing compared to Pride.

Yep watched PRIDE this past weekend!!....FEDOR is the MAN! Coleman face was all fucked-up! And did you see Randleman leg?!? if you watch the replay of the kneebar Rua put on him, you could see Randleman knee pop out of place then goes back in after he tapped...fucken AWSOME!!

Pride > UFC

Shooto > Pride > UFC

The majority of Pride LWs come from Shooto

 

[hitzatak]

Err...
So doesn't that mean Pride is better than it?
Someone doesn't understand the concept of moving up I see...

Shooto is the BEST!!

I'm so happy when I see someone else who appreciates Shooto. Shooto has always produced the best fighters in the world

Similar to Pankrase?

I have been watching some of Bas Rutten's old fights. Damn!

Never really looked in to Shooto....seems like it pretty interesting

It's not like Pancrase. Pancrase does/did produce a lot of good fighters and it's a great organization, but it has taken a hit in the last 2 or so years. I still check out the shows every so often.. The show on Sept 16th was pretty good

To tell the truth, I only started to get into watching MMA a few years ago when I was living in Japan. Pride is very entertaining and the Japanese love it. A ticket for crap seats was like $400

 

[hitzatak]

Fuck, you serious? That much? Damn.

 

[Rob_TID]

Yeah, some of my Japanese friends went to every tournament. They had a lot of spare cash. And the whole fricken country is fucking CRAZY about Bob Sapp. The Sapp vs. Akebono fight was one of the most watched events in the country's history. Sapp is on billboards and TV commercials everywhere.
