I thoroughly enjoyed that read. I love all things having to do with 90’s MMA.

Great effort. Thank you.

Thanks for the mention. The Kakutogi Road thread is now just closing out the end of 1992. I hope to be able to go all the way until the end of Pride, Lord willing.

Really is kind of an overlooked milestone in MMA history, and a big feather in Ken’s cap.

Early Pancrase was deeper with talent than early UFC.
The UFC’S top couple fighters, (Gracie, Shamrock, Severn) were better. But Pancrase had more talent throughout. (Obviously factoring that Ken competed in both).
