My Discussions with Brown_Pride got me thinking. What was the best fight of All Time in Pride? Vote now! I understand that there will be some people saying...what about this guy vs this guy etc etc etc. Look people, I looked around on many a discussion board etc. and websites and this is what I came up with along with my own feelings. If you dont like it whatever, But my goal is to find the best fight period. Not some of the best. Vote and let's find out what number 1 is. Thanks.

Wanderlei vs. Rampage 2 was it for me. All the drama leading up to it and the best KO in the orgs. history make it my fave fight of all time from any org.

I wish it was that easy. But I'm not a Junkie because I take the easy way out. I'm a junkie because I like to get down to the nitty gritty, the blood soaked canvas, the deep dark places you go when you hurt feelings. :twisted: buuahhahahaha

Without a doubt, that Don Frye fight was insanely fun to watch.

Ya it was. It's far from technical and not even close to what MMA is supposed to be, but man it was awesome to watch. Much like the Nog vs Bob Sapp. I nearly put that fight on that list.

I really liked the finish to Rampage vs Arona

I know, the finish was great but the fight leading up to that wasn't EPIC. Arona had a lot of crazy good fights.

This one is easy. Shogun v. Lil' Nog. It's not even close for me. Best combat sports bout in history, IMO. And I'm a huge boxing fan, probably bigger boxing fan than MMA fan. With all the great bouts in boxing's grand history, I don't think any of them beat this one. A lot of them are close- bouts like Hagler/Hearns, Ali/FrazierIII, Sugar Ray Robinson/ Bassilio II, Foreman/Lyle, Morales/Barrera, Holyfield/Qawi, etc., etc., etc. I know boxing, so all you boxing fans out there---don't hate on me saying this is, IMO, the best.
Shogun v. Lil' Nog is beatiful. You see everything. You see crisp punching from Nog. Solid MT from Shogun. Great submission attempts from Nog. Great takedowns from Shogun.
I hope Shogun beats Machida and Lil' Nog gets a shot at him again. I thought he won the first time around.

People are voting for Fedor v. Cro Cop? That fight wasn't even competitive. The build up was the s---, but the fight kinda sucked.
And the Frye fight, while very entertaining, is not something that should be voted for.
That would be like voting a toughman competition fight into the boxing hall of fame.
Good call on the Diaz/Gomi and Newton/Sakuraba bouts. Those were classics. Also, Sakuraba's bout against Renzo was pretty f---ing awesome.
