Benny, Benny, Benny... Dude you really cant say much on this bro... UFC has a few good fighters and yes Dana just landed his new cash cow with CC and Hopefully he can motivate Rampage's ass to learn how to put on a good show again. But to say that Pride is crashing is a truly ignorant statement... I dont know how you could think that. Dana puts on the same fuking show every other month and if he doesnt the shows blow ass. Look at the next GSP fight against Matt Sera who the f**k is gonna pay to watch that shitty fight. I mean im sure you will, but for the rest of us that's a fucking waste of money. You were actually probably thrilled to see Frank Mir come back after his accident. While the rest of us didnt give a rat's ass. Im not baggin on you and dont need you to write meltdown cause this is far from it. I am just trying to get you to realize Dana has one or two good fighters in a weight class while the rest are idiots and have no marketabillity what so ever. If you lost Chuck Liddell from UFC you would cry.. If you lost GSP or Hughes you would cry... Pride fans no longer have CroCop to watch and we arent bitching we are happy. Tuf newbies hate it when they hear Fedor's name cause there is no one in the UFC that could hang with Fedor past the 3 minute mark... And i really am tempted to say it but I wont... f**k it yeah I will your Big Ugly Awkward Kneed Piece Of shit champ Wont last past the first round with CroCop... I wont be suprised if his eye balls are in the back of his head after 3:00 minutes... But keep watching TUF and paying for shitty cards. like the Serra GSP fight.. bet you cant wait....
Calm down, muthafucka. I'm here to bust balls more than anything else, bro. What fascinates me is that you PRIDE polesmokers act are SO adamant about the superiority of PRIDE that you come off as assholes. Yeah, those of us who watch these fights can see that PRIDE has had some great fighters. But guess what homie...PRIDE ain't payin' your bills, so calm the fuck down. If PRIDE gets your dick hard so much, then ONLY watch PRIDE and shut the fuck up about everything else. I'd rather watch ALL the federations, because...well I enjoy fights more than I enjoy polesmokin' for organizations.
If you think PRIDE isn't in serious trouble, then you might want to look at some of the handwriting on the wall. Didn't the major financial backer of PRIDE back out of the organization. Not being able to put on shows of the same quality of the past is not good, not to mention there may become problems paying the fighters what they've come to expect. You've got CroCop AND Rampage defecting to the UFC. You've got the new organization putting on fights on Showtime, starting with Frank Shamrock and Renzo, and more to come. HBO signed a for fight deal with the UFC for 2007. And...King Fedor has an upcoming fight in an organization outside of PRIDE. Could he be next to defect to the UFC, IFL, or some other fed? Things ain't lookin' all that great for PRIDE right now. I'm not saying the organization will fall apart, because I honestly don't know. But it sure is SWEET for the PRIDE polesmokers to have to calm the fuck down for awhile.
Why not enjoy ALL mma instead of being a buttboy for one federation? So Fedor's the best...therefore you ignore the chance to watch an entertaining fight in another federation? You're not a true fan of the sport then. Good an entertaining fights can come out of a lot of matchups, just like in boxing.
One of these days a former PRIDE guy will get beat by a UFC fighter. It may be Brandon Vera...a VERY talented athlete knocking CroCop the fuck out. CroCop
s a beast, but CC's been knocked out before. Anything can happen...that's why they fight.
Most of us in the US know the UFC better because PRIDE fights are often unavailable here. But with youtube, a serious fan has seen most of the better PRIDE matches, so we know how good the competition is there. I will agree that the casual American fan that ONLY has seen the UFC can be a bit annoying at times. It's just that they honestly haven't been exposed to anything else yet.
And with that, I'm out...MUTHAFUCKAS!
