What happens is guys focus on taking the guy down, drive him into the fence and beat the hell out of. It's very repetitive. Which results in very few submission artists of enough skill because fighting from their back will end up with their back against the fence with knees in your face.

Great point...UFC limits ground fighters..the also no longer allow you to wear a Gi..which a lot of traditional ground fighters don't like. The was a quote in a magazine that I actually read over at Mr. Heel Hook's house by Renze Gracie who said..."Why would I fight in a forum which limits my ability to win?" Which I think is the way most people feel about UFC.

Pride has better fighters and is more enjoyable. Nuff said.

Without a doubt, that is why my boy Chuck is over in PRIDE as kicking now. To prove he is not just a UFC sally.

Quite the contrary..A few fighters like Rico float back and forth...but for the most part UFC fighters, especially UFC fighters from the old good UFC...(i.e. Gary Goodridge, Don Frye, Royce Gracie, Ken Shamrock, Dan Severn, and many more) Have come over to PRIDE to fight instead.
All and all I was a big fan of UFC when it first came out, it was new it was fresh it was exciting...then the changed the rules, and it just became repetion.
PRIDE is exciting...I watched the last event with a group of roughly seven guys over Mr. Heel Hook's house so he can vouch for it. We were interested, paying close attention the whole time...With UFC, save for the Chuck Liddel vs Randy Couture fight, there is not much that has been able to hold my intrest in some time.
PRIDE..

UFC...
