149149
pride and ufc are just different competitions,the only difference is pride is in a ring,the ufc is in a cage...\nuntil pride versus ufc happens we will never know who is the real world champion...i think chuck liddel would beat wanderlei silva...alovski v fedor would be interesting

The best pound per pound boxer is Manny "the PACMAN" Pacquiao..not that i am a Filipino but he has proven his worth!!!\n\nSince pacman out-punch M.A. Barrera, he was dazzled by manny's   combination of punches and unorthodox style, barrera was no match for Pacquiao skills, it is like beating your younger brother.\n\nAlso he made E. Morales kiss the canvas for the first time..morales was brutaly beaten,swollen face and bloody nose..another round would be a goodbye for morale's  boxing carrer. Another rematch for morales v.s pacquiao III is too much.\n\nThanks to his great Trainer "Fredie Roach" and his co-sparing team in Los Angeles California.\n\n"Manny is the BEST boxer in the league today...so watch out for great Manny..July 2, 2006 ---Oscar "CHOLOLO" Larios (Mexican) v.s. Manny "The Pacman"Pacquiao" at the Araneta Cubao, Manila, Philippines.\n\nMABUHAY ANG PINOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

fujita showed that fedor is somewhat human, and i say somewhat because any other human would have taken the fish dance to the next level and fallen, except maybe mark hunt. coleman and randleman showed that he can be taken down. and heath herring and big nog showed that a little heart can go a long way. fedor WILL NOT lose in pride under pride fc rules. and by this i mean, in the ufc, rules favor the wrestler where a takedown and a stall can win u a fight. whereas in pride, the fighter thats active will win the fight and stalling gets a yellowcard. and fedor NEVER stalls. i think a PRIME ricco rodriguez could have beaten fedor in the ufc buy taking him down and just laying and praying for dear life... but that was four years ago. also, back in 2000 a lotf of people felt that arona should have won the fight, but that was in an reorganization that didnt allow shots to the head while on the ground

To be perfectly honest I really wouldn't know how to call this fight. I think that they are both good fighters with more less similar physical strenght and power. I think Evan would have some advantage in striking and he'd probably do better standing up in this fight. Matt's wrestling skills on the other hand are some way ahead of Evan's (I think that he was an Olympic silver medalist in greco roman). But then again Tanner is probably a bit more experienced so I really don't know.\nIf I had to pick I'd go with Tanner but that's basically just taking a guess.\n\nAnd to answer the other part of your question I'm from Croatia and I do watch and like Pride more mostly  because of the great competitors and fights that they have in heavyweight and light heavyweight division, and because of Mirko of course. Middleweight division is about even in both organizations, with Rich Franklin and Dan Henderson being completely dominant. Welterweight division Pride doesn't have but their lightweight fighters and fights are better then UFC's in my opinion.\nBut to be honest what I mind the most are all these people who turn up here, know nothing about MMA of course, but still run their mouth about UFC like it's some kind of God given organization, Chuck and Andrei are the best in the world, Pride fighters are minor league and things like that. UFC in my opinion is most overrated MMA organization in the world and that's why I dislike it so much.

If they have a hooters out there give them a call.  But for the most part I think people are going to be showing the Pacquiao vs. Morales fight.  Either way you are in for a good show.  I my self will be ordering the UFC fight.  I need GSP to knock out Matt.\n\nAnyway good luck

I am not really sure.  I was at the UFC (was it 59?) live in Las Vegas for the USA vs. Canada matches when GSP beat BJ Penn and frankly the whole crowd was in an uproar because we really felt BJP should have won.  I was not impressed with GSP's performance that night (a little sarcasm for you there).  I also think GSP is a little overconfident going into this fight, which could be his downfall.  Lots of people say Matt is cocky, well have you watched UFC Unleashed (the special about the upcoming matches)?  GSP did nothing but talk about how great he is and how much training he has, how superior his training is over Matt's and how much better than Matt he is all around.  Everything Matt said was in response to GSP's constant macho uptalk about himself.  I really like Matt Hughes - he impressed the heck out of me with his win over Royce Gracie.  However, I think he should have put BJ Penn away a lot sooner in the match than he did.  So I'm nervous about the fight.  I WANT Matt to win (badly) but I think GSP has a good chance at it.

I am a fan of both the UFC and the Pride FC so i hope i am able to help.\nPride is in Japan and has a huge following so the money is much better over there and attracts the better fighters. The Pride rules can vary from fight to fight and allow strikes that the ufc wont such as stomping your opponent when they are on the ground. The Pride FC is legal and the Japanese are as crazy about Martial Arts as we are about Baseball.\nThe UFC is American and first aired live in 1993 when the legendary Royce Gracie defeated 3 men in one night to become the first UFC champion. The UFC was seen as barbarrak having no rules unlike Pride witch came about in 1997. The UFC was banned on TV after UFC 4 and relied on the Internet for viewing. Not having a huge following the prize money was not that great and the fighters were not world class athletes with a few exceptions that soon went over to Japan for the better money. The UFC has since become legal with rules that were more suitable for television and has become more and more popular. \n \nOther than one being in a cage and the other a ring there isn't much of a difference some fighters fight in both Pride and the UFC. At the moment Dana White (the president of the UFC) is trying to to make a deal with the Pride organisation to have UFC champ Chuck Liddel to take on Pride champ Wanderlei Silva to unify the two belts. Unfortunately he has been un successful so to answer your question there is no real difference other than some slight rule differences.

Santana stole my thunder, Brent stole my lightning!  I have a similar opinion of Santana's with regard to Mayweather's person, unfortunately no one can deny that his skills are on a different level than that of hatton.  \nOn a seperate note, I've watched fighters like Mayweather evolve.  They don't start out all arrogant and cocky.  They start at the bottom like everyone else.  You get a few belts and everyone telling you that you're pfp the best in the sport, I guess the arrogance comes with it.  I mean, no one can kick your butt, you get paid and endorsed to kick everyone elses butt, so I guess you slowly develop a chip (or in Floyd's case, a 2x4) on your shoulder....\n     Maybe one of these days we'll see a champion with humility and grace.  But we won't hold our breath, will we.....

The UFC fighters are all contracted before each fight they might sign a 3 fight contract but they will get more money if they fight a top 10 ranked fighter. There is a set  amount they will be contracted for and the winner of the bout will get the win bonus. The top of the UFC fighters (Matt Hughes,Tito Ortize and Chuck Liddel) get about $200.000 if they win doesn't sound like much but they also have there sponsors that pay for there training and they also get a bonus from them if they win that is why every fighter that wins has to thank there sponsors for advertisement.\n\nFighters get paid more fighting in the PRIDE orginisationin Japan.

not sure on the boxing one but I've been following GSP for awhile now and believe that he's alot better a fighter...where Hughes fights the same way every fight GSP adapts and is almost a new fighter for every fight

Pride.  The fighters in Pride are the best in the world expecially at the higher weights.  I also like the ring better than the cage.  The ring makes the viewing better.  How many times in UFC is the camera behind the cage with a lousy shot?  \n\nOne thing that is funny and stupid about Pride camera work is right in the middle of great action they cut to the audience.  How stupid is that.

There are so many good fighters but only a few great fighters.My vote goes to "The Natural" Randy Couture...he's done and won it all...and win or lose he ALWAYS did it with class...a true model for other men to follow in the sport!!!
