    It's quite a brutal fight, basically a lot of Arona controlling from a front headlock and landing knees to the head.

    Really highlights the good and bad of Pride; knees on the ground, but trying to give Sak every opportunity to pull out a miracle comeback with total disregard to his own health and well being; to the point of negligence on the ref and matchmakers part.

    Enough already. Sak was no different than Nog. How about Kharitonov - Overeem I?
    Pride was "real" like old boxing. No early stoppage's in big fights. I hate UFC gay rules.

    Im pretty certain Rampage was carrying injuries into that fight. It was humiliating to watch him turn his head and get booted in the face as he simply had nothing left. I think most assumed that was it. Rampage done career over after the two brutal Wandy beatings. Guess i was wrong!

    Fedor still carries that scar to this day. The punishement Big Nog took in those bouts was extraordinary. The irony was Nog was seen as the favourite! Every punch Fedor landed on him was like a canned ham meeting Nog's face. Apart from the NC that was a all time great series.

    I think this one just speaks for itself. Not up to much. But Kevin pretty much embodies everything that PRIDE was. He lay it all on the line literally.

    Felt bad for Mark after this fight. It was as though Mark was simply a small boy. Fedor smashed him up like a cat playing with a ball of wool.

    Hands down most exciting MMA fight of ALL TIMES. Takayama's face looked like a side of raw beef.

    I don't seem to remeber anybody dragging a damn near lifeless pile of blood and swollen facial features out of the ring after Nog getting beat on because he was hopelessly overmatched.

    That was from his second encounter with Fedor. Fedor smashed him to pieces with some brutal GnP and then armbarred him in a round.
