    PRIDE was better in every way

    it really is not up for discussion.


    + OPEN WEIGHT tournaments

    + No manlet weight classes

    + 10 minute first rounds

    + YELLOW cards for stalling

    + ENTIRE fight judged as a whole.

    + Multiple tournaments a year per weight class

    + Unbelievable production value

    + NO WOMENS mma

    + 6 oz MMA gloves that stopped eye pokes

    + GYM rivalries. Chute Boxe vs BTT, Saku vs the Gracies

    + Soccer kicks

    + Knees on the ground

    + Beautiful White Ring that had class

    + 50,000 plus stadium shows.

    + Unbelievable announcers

    + Fighters had REAL back stories that you cared about.

    + Steroids were legal for all. not just for some

    + Paid in cash tax free in the locker room

    + UNREAL event posters


    REAL MMA died in 2007

    Those posters are beautiful... especially the sharks and the last one. the UFC posters these days look like there made by a ten year old in photoshop.

    damn, this gave me goosebumps. Watching UFC now is like the Barbarians stumbling across ancient Greek or Roman ruins.

There's a reason MMA interest was at an all time high at the point of Pride's run. Would have killed to have attended a Pride event.

    Pride never die. *Pours out a sip of my 40.*

    couldn't care less about tax free money being paid in the locker room...does zero for me as a fan in any way whatsoever...

    manlet weight classes are def. awesome...thats not even remotely debatable...some of the most exciting fights are by pint sized manlets...

    womens MMA is ok...theres some fights i genuinely am excited to see...

    never gave even 1 iota of a f**k about a poster...didnt even know there were posters...that don't register in my brain...

    absolutely hate the ring...always did...idiots falling out or purposely throwing their limbs outside of it...then a restart in the center? so friggen gay...cage crushes ring w/ ease...

    f**k steroids...if u can beat the test then good for you but if you get popped, peace cya later...good riddance...

    all the other reasons tho are legit...
