Hahaha, and the LWGP is going to be insane.

Looks like DREAM's on the fast track to reclaiming PRIDE's glory.

I don't want to get into another Pride-UFC thing, but what is so good about it? Fedor will kill Sylvia, we just saw AA fight Werdum(who is better than Rothwell) and that fight sucked, Mike Whitehead? Isn't he the pos from TUF? Rizzo and Barnett may be good though. I must be missing something, cuz it looks like a card with a few "ok" fighters and a Fedor fight.

"Ok" fighters? There are 2 alone on that card that are better than every fighter in the UFC HW division and 1 on top of that who could give Nog a run. And that's not even 1/2 the card, like Sylvia, who was #2 in the UFC HW division two months ago.

DREAM's just getting going and it's already putting on better cards. UH OH!

But hey, if you'd rather see Chief Kongo fight random UFC scrub #8979798 who wants to lnp his way to a decision, more power to ya!

Fedor and Barnettt are good fighters. But Fedor is going to kill Sylvia. Other than that which fight are you looking forward to most?

I'm looking forward to all of them. Fedor, Aleks and Barnett (who hasn't fought in over a year) haven't been fighting at all and every fight on this card is better than anything the UFC HW division has put on in a year. Sylvia is regarded by almost every UFC fanboy as the best HW in the world. Watching him get dismantled will be great.

Anything is better than UFC rematch #58.

yeah mostly ufc leftovers. and there's no doubt that fedor and barnett are great fighters, but unless theyre matched against eachother or against some interesting competition it dont really matter.

One of those UFC leftovers has had how many title shots in the last 2 years due to the utter shit that is that division?

They needed a Pride fighter to come in and smack the division around and take the belt in 3 months. HAHAHA.

After Minotauro it's nothing but amateurs trying to act like they can hang with the big boys in Dream.  :D

it's a good card....not a great card but a good card and I'd be willing to bet the only reason why you're saying it's great because IT'S NOT a UFC card


take fedor off of this card and it's an IFL level card


it's OK to be anti UFC ,but let's not lose track of reality here

Can the UFC put a better HW card on at this moment? Nope, not even close. If you count Arlovski, that card has 5 of the top 10 HW's in the world on it. UFC has 1 top 10 HW in the entire division.  :-X

where the hell have you been for the last 5 years nick ?

what one organization has ever had enough talent in one division to support a ppv worthy card ?



I'm starting to get a kick out of this so called supreme knowledge your imagination has you believing

You said it's a bad card. It's a HW only card from one organization. What's your point? You're claiming he's anti-UFC by saying it's a good card. I'm pointing out that one organization in the UFC can not put on a better card that than right now. Plain and simple.

Sure the UFC could put on a better card by bringing other divisions in, which is what Dream could do.

What are you getting at exactly? Fact of the matter is that this card alone has significantly more talent than any HW card the UFC could put on RIGHT NOW.



By the way, Pride could've easily put on a HW only card. They did with the OWGP. And Bushido for the lighter classes. HAHAHAH, care to try again, Geoffrey? :D

I can see Sylvia giving fedor more problems than what most people are apparently thinking...


Sylvia's just one of those guys that may come in at 265 (or whatever the limits gonna be) but it's a seemingly HEAVY 265....

it almost seems like the guy has concrete in his damned shoes or something

I saw a commercial for that, who is Oleg fighting and what is the org. called? Yamma or something?

I miss pride as much as the next guy....


just wish everyone  that was fighting in pride hadn't scattered all over the place....


I think Dana should have kept pride in tact when he bough it and just called it "UFC east" and kept a two title system going with occasional super fights every 9 months or so

That's what they said he was going to do when they bought it. If they did that MMA would be better than ever right now. They could have just kept rotating fighters between the two organizations and have a grand prix in Japan every year. But nah, they had to destroy it and scatter some of the world's best talent, and a lot of those guys haven't fought since, which sucks.

He was blowing smoke up all our asses and everyone fell for it. That's why I hope Dream actually reclaims what Pride lost. As long as they avoid the Yakuza bullshit, they should be fine.

I'll be honest....

when page beat Hendo I was disappointed....

but the second hendo tapped against silva I literally felt the air leaking out of my "MMA fandom"

the whole pride mystique was destroyed way too quickly...

I think the UFC needed the comparison to pride just to make things interesting and to keep people wondering "what if"

it's the element of "what if" that keeps some people interested especially with a limited talent pool

According to my cable Oleg is fighting Don Frye and it is 35 bucks(not worth it imo). Butterbean is on the card as well.
