Who else watches NHB/Pride Fighting?

[Immortal Juicer]

i swear the fighters in pride are the best athletes in the world. watch pride 10 and you will agree. back when the ufc started, it was more like human dogfighting with one guy, who thought tae kwon do was the shit, getting mauled by the other. now the fighters have evolved into world class athletes with fucking balls of steel.

the super bowl, world series, nba championships, whatever; after watching pride 10 and the 2000 pride grand prix, they all seem like a bunch of grown men playing a game. that shit is the closest thing to pure competition with the top fighters in the world.

royce gracie and sakuraba fought for 12, 10 minute rounds, before royce's corner finally threw in the towel. neither one of them would quit even after fighting for two hours!

you have to have boxing or wrestling experience to truly appreciate the heart and courage of royce and sak. no timeouts, half time, seventh inning stretch, nothing except one minute breaks between an indefinate number of 10 minute rounds.

that is some shit! if you havent seen it, you dont know what you are missing. check it out.

yes I saw that too on the last pride fighting.

What's the name of the latest Brazilian baddass? I think he has like tatoos on his head? He's a bad mofo.

Pridefighting doesn't nearly hype up each match like UFC does. They're quick and to the point.

Vanderlai Silva...

Vanderlai Silva...

he's a badass, but honestly i cant wait till his ass gets kicked.

 

[Immortal Juicer]

check out the silva/jackson fight in the ivc. that shit is brutal, no gloves, practically no rules. silva goes from the mount then jumps up to a face stomp! you cant bridge and roll out of that!

igor is fighting heath herring in the next pride. that should be a good fight. igor hits like a train.

I dont know who is going to do it though. He is a mean mother fucker. He has the coldest stare I have ever seen. I think I would rather fight TITO than him.

Heath Herring is over rated. Needs to worry less about his hair and more about fighting. Igor got beat last time I saw him fight.. Cant remember who he fought though

I like that 7 foot tall fucker too. Semmy Shildt or something like that. He is just funny to watch. But He is always fucking up some japanese dude that is like half his height.

dude he destroyed that japanese professional wrestlers face. he turned him into hamburger.

someone will eventually beat him. That's the way it usually goes. Dan Coleman back in his day might be a good match for him. Belfort and him would be a good fight too.

Or tank abbot.

didnt tito and silva fight a long time ago in UFC, tito won i think. but silva has said he wants tito to come into pride and fight him as a favor. i would like to see it.

i agree about heath herring, he needs alot more experience to fight for the heavywieght title. but i like him though.

igor did get beat but he won his last fight against a sumbission guy, igor choked him out. i think it was cold fury 2. its still playing repeats on PPV.

semmy is the shit.

Tito and Silva did fight at a UFC Japan (I believe that is where it was). Tito won via judges decision.

Vitor Belfort and Silva also hooked up once and Belfort handed him his ass in less than a minute.

Anyone see the last one... This dudes name was something MUNSON... He was jacked as fuck, His legs looked like they were about 30 inches...

He got his ass whooped by Ninja but he was stakced.

 

[ZenMachine]

Unfortunately I think the word here is had hand speed and accuracy. He hasn't shown much in his last few fights. Too conservative.

He has a fight with a japanese guy in pride that is downright boring.

For the Igor fans check out his fight with Enson Inoue. I swear he just about knocks Enson into a comma. It is brutal.

yea, but munson just wasnt busy enough and i think he tried to rely on his strength for take downs and it didnt work. ninja stays busy for the whole fight.

was this fight in pride or another organization? i dont remember the name enson inoue.

 

[the nature boy]

poor enson inoue, he had to fight silva the last pride fighting. he didn't do too well, but he made it to a decision at least.

 

[spongebob]

oh, ok, now i remember. NB jogged my memory.

My one complaint about Pride is the mismatches where they set up some Japanese pro wrestler against a legitimate fighter.

Giant Ochai? Come on.

hahahahahahaha! he has no business in thier, but thats for the fans in japan basically.

i remember the shot he did on gary goodridge. he "shot" from across the ring. he looked like he thought he was superman, flying with his hands out, bent at the waist!

he didnt win that fight.

 

[the nature boy]

My question is why would a pro wrestler even try and fight one of those guys.

Sakuraba is a pro wrestler and he is one of the best out there. Granted Silva has his number, but Sak has taken out some serious competition.
