^ wow. thanks. So there actually is a big fight on that card. I don’t have time to follow all these different leagues, but would/will tune in for that main event.
Watching pride live or the next day was better than watching strike force , by a long shot, better production, massive events which were highly anticipated, crazy matchups sometimes, better commentating, better rule set, bigger talent pool, hilarious promos and interviews.
I loved strikeforce and there were some great events and fights but as far as the experience of watching both pride was leagues ahead. Half of the strikeforce roster were former pride fighters as well.
I’ll always prefer a cage over a ring. And the unified rules over ghetto stomps and kicks to a downed opponent. The only thing I didn’t like about SF was the No elbows on the ground rule that was stupid
I will 100/100 times take the SF commentators and announcer over the Pride ones. That isn’t even close to me
Shamrock was fuckin terrible in Strikeforce and so was Militech , hard as fuck to listen to half the time , that faggot with the purple eyeliner as well. Mauro was the only decent commentator they had.
Edit , I don’t even remember their announcer , who was it , Martinez?
