You don't know how many of these former Pride fighters retired and went on to pursue other things. You're jumping to nationality without any proof. On one hand you're saying that he's biased against foreign fighters, but then you concede that he's expanding in to the foreign market. That's not at all consistent with bias. Dana doesn't have to do anything. How do you explain the Gracies then? They were built in to the very foundation if the UFC.
yea ok man..they where all fighting in pride...and then UFC bought them..and they all retired. As for Gracies, thats pre Zuffa dude.... as for expanding the forign market..yes..he is starting to do that now..and hence he is brining in more forgin fighters.
Anderson Silva, Wanderlie Silva, Cro Cop, Rampage, Dan Henderson all used to fight for Pride. All either fight or used to fight for the UFC. There are plenty others as well. Some former Pride fighters went to other fighting organizations. Others are just washed up and shot at this point. Some were just trying to duck competition in the UFC. How is that Dana's fault exactly? According to this article, quite a few former Pride fighters are in the UFC now. http://sports.yahoo.com/mma/news?slug=dm-ufcsider020808
Click the link dude. Mostly non-Americans by my count but I could be wrong. I'm not as obsessed with nationality as you are.
im not obsessed..im just a realists who doesnt buy the argument that UFC has all the best fighters in the world other then fedor or rogers...
Wait a minute. When did this become a debate about the UFC having the best fighters? Did I say that? I'll admit, I'm wasted as **** (It's my B-day) so I can't remember, but if I did, quote me. I was never looking to pick a fight with you dude. That's the messed up part. I just wanted a deeper explanation for what you were saying.
Josh v anyone in the UFC Fedor v anyone in the UFC Overeem v anyone in the UFC HOW MANY COMBOS can you make of this? How many fights wont we ever see?
