steve sandstrom - Let's be real. These Rizin events are weak as far as relevant MMA goes. But I get the nostalgia but it's is just that nostalgic.
My only complaint has been people acting like these are competitive fights that mean anything other than to give a warm fuzzy feeling.
I watch Bellator and WSOF when I can. I had a Showtime sub just for Strikeforce and yes I watched Pride as well. But I watched Pride for the badass fighters not for some feel good bullshit of yesteryear.
It missed most of the Pride Era so I'm literally watching it for the feel good bullshit of yesteryear. Kind of the same feeling I had towards the force awakens.
