What is an aspect you don't prefer Pride in? They win in everything for me.
I watched Crocop vs Sanchez and[SPOILER - highlight to read]: ....it went just like I expected. I hoped for a cleaner K.O. but whatever. Crocop dominated like he should have. I haven't watched Rampage yet but I know how the fight went. Nice to know Pride is representing over in UFC.
As for Pride 33, Shogun vs Overeem is now confirmed. Can't wait to see that.

I try to ALWAYS order Pride Events. The atmosphere is incredible, the fights are ALL great, and the announcers (Bas Rutten and Mauro which no longer are the announcers ) were great.
The only thing i dislike about Pride, is the event they have in USA. They try to match it up as "other countries vs USA". Not the best idea.
here's the Pride 33 fightcard: Let me tell you why i prefer Pride over UFC events.
look at the fights. Wandy (top 5 in his division), Hendo (top 5), Gomi (top 2), Diaz (top 10), Nakamura (top 10), Sakurai (top 3), Misaki (top 5), Rogerio Nog (top 10), Shogun (top 5), Overeem (top 10), Arona (top 5), Kharitonov (top 10). ALL TOP NOTCH FIGHTERS
Wanderlei Silva vs Dan Henderson
Takanori Gomi vs Nick Diaz
Kazuhiro Nakamura vs Travis Wiuff
Hayato Sakurai vs Mac Danzig
Kazuo Misaki vs Frank Trigg
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira vs Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou

i wasn't trying to convince anyone. just pointing out why i like the Pride events better. i like mma regardless of which organization i watch (i just prefer Pride )
I want Hendo to go home with 2 belts, but i dont see it happening at all.
Wandy via Decision
Gomi via TKO
Nakamura via Decision
Sakurai via TKO
Misaki via Decision (but Trigg can surprise me)
Rogerio via TKO (not sure if the fight is 100% confirmed yet)
i'll keep you guyz updated.
if anyone wants UFC 67, just send me a PM.

Don't forget, Silva will not be allowed to use his knees and feet to Henderson's head if Dan goes down. That will work towards the benefit of Henderson.

yea but Kharitonov is fighting Mike Russow. Kharitonov should have no trouble dismantling Russow. Hopefully Kharitonov shoulder is doing better. that's the reason he lost to Aleksander and Overeem.
