So finally, Pride Fighting Championships is having their first show on our soil next week. This show will completely blow away all the UFC's you guys have ever ordered, without a doubt. The big fights on this card will feature the greatest fighter in the world, Fedor Emelianenko, along with Josh Barnett, Mark Coleman, Kevin Randleman, Shogun Rua, Vitor Belfort, Dan Henderson, Nastula, Mark Hunt, and many others. Think of about 4 UFC main events, and put them into this card.
The Main event will feature the return of Fedor Emelianenko after a long lay off due to a hand injury. This Heavyweight machine will be taking on Mark Coleman in a rematch... in which Coleman got armbarred.
On to the "co-main event". Shogun Rua will be fighting the Monster Randleman. Since the U.S. rules dont favor Rua's style, i predict Kevin by dec. or possibly a TKO. Shogun's stand up isnt great. He cant knock out Randleman on the feet and cant take him down. Rua can sub him though.
Another great fight is Dan Henderson vs Vitor Belfort. The 183 pound paper champion Dan Henderson just lost a decision to Misaki(who will advance to the final four in BUSHIDO). Vitor is coming off a KO victory to Takahashi. Ofcoarse i want Belfort to win. Dan gets cocky with his stand up and will pay the price for it this time. If Vitor lets his hands go, we could see one of the greatest finishes in MMA history.
Here's the full card...
