Basically if you love MMA at all this is the event to get! Although it only has seven fights they are all action packed.
1) Kazuhiro Nakamura vs. Igor Vovchanchyn: Maybe the only fight that did not live up to expectations but to die hard fans there is enough action and ground game to keep you entertained.
2) Tank Abbott vs. Hidehiko Yoshida: The veteran UFC brawler takes on Olympic gold medalist in judo. This fight begins with a bang but ultimately goes to the ground where the better technician pulls out the victory with a VERY rare choke.
3) Fabricio Werdum vs. Roman Zentsov: This showcased the up and coming Brazilian talent who some claim to have the best BJJ in the heavyweight division. Needless to say he shows why he is ranked in the top 10 in the world.
4) Wanderlei Silva vs. Ricardo Arona: This is a rivalry between the the brazilian camps Chute Boxe and Brazilian Top Team. It is a heated battle that ended up being one of he biggest upsets in Pride FC history.
5) Maurcio Rua vs. Alistair Overeem: The definition of a barnburner. These two guys came to bang and don't quit until one gains mount and pounds the other until the ref is forced to stop the fight.
6) Fedor Emelianenko vs. Mirko Filipovic: Although this fight ends in decision do not be fooled. These guys came to put on a show and they did a good job. 100% action the entire way between the two top heavyweights in the world.
7) Mauricio Rua vs. Ricardo Arona: This is the finals of the 205 lb. tournament. Winner take all. Arona is looking for the belt and Rua is looking for revenge for the loss Arona handed to his teammate Wanderlei Silva in the semi-finals. This one end by vicious knockout and crowns the winner of the deepest tournament in MMA history
Overall this is one of the greatest MMA events i have ever had the pleasure of watching.
I would recommend this to a friend

This has got to be the best Pride FC fights ever. The fight with Mirko Cro Cop Vs Fedor Emelianenko was absolutely amazing. It was without a doubt the most anticipated MMA fight ever. The wait was for sure worth it because it delivered beutifully. Any MMA fan has got to have this for sure.
