Great MMA Debate: What is the greatest PRIDE fight of all time?
During the early 2000's while the UFC was still trying to gain a foothold on the MMA market in America, PRIDE Fighting Championships was thriving in Japan with a constant flow of some of the most stacked cards in history.
Famous names like Fedor Emelianenko, Mirko Cro Cop, Wanderlei Silva, Takanori Gomi, and Kazushi Sakuraba all flourished under the PRIDE Fighting banner and even now more than seven years after the promotion when belly up, it's hard to forget those classic fights in Japan.
On today's Great MMA Debate, we talk about our favorite PRIDE fights of all time. From Fedor vs. Cro Cop to Nick Diaz vs. Takanori Gomi, we debate the best of the best from one of the classic MMA organizations on the planet.
Also on today's show, UFC Fight Night in Japan headliner Roy Nelson drops by for a chat to discuss his fight with Mark Hunt and the debate about who is the greatest heavyweight MMA fighter of all time. Is it Fedor? Is it Cain Velasquez?
