Cro Cop and Fedor have both pulled out of Pride's show on NYE.
It really doesn't look good for Pride.

It terms of that card I'm not that disapointed as Fedor would have beaten Hunt easily and Crocop was going to be fighting some can but it certainly doesnt show much confidense in Pride's future.
The latest rumour is that Crocop has signed with the UFC and will debut at UFC 67 verus Jake O'Brien. Can't say I'm looking forward to any match he could have there as much as I would rematchs with Fedor and Nog but I spose yelling "timber!" when he fights Sylvia might be fun. Good to see the UFC are making big name signings aswell rather than merely bringing though TUF guys. |

I enjoyed the UFC event last night. Tito showed great heart to come back from the pounding he took from Chuck at the end of round 1 and his humbleness after the match will have won him some fans back i think.
Jardine vs Griffin was a shock result, i thought Jardine would give him problems but i didnt think he'd beat him. I liked how Chris Leben had a go at the boo boys after his fight too as i'm sick of the drunk fans booing for no good reason half the time! It was good to see Arlovski get a win as well!

Couture vs Sylvia is official for UFC 68 on March 3rd. Should be an interesting one.

It won't be easy for either fighter and Couture certainly is getting on a bit but the word is it's a four fight deal over 2 years so I guess they're hoping he takes the belt as there's more money with Couture on top than there is with Sylvia.
It'll also be interesting to see if winner faces CroCop or if they hold off on CroCop for a while so they can build him up for American audiences...

Excellent.
I saw Forrest Griffin vs Tito Ortiz for the first time a couple of nights ago. I know its an old fight, and I had seen Ortiz vs Lidell beforehand, but what a cracking fight. I don't think Griffin will ever get to the top of the tree but he'll give anyone a hard fought match. I would like to see him against Lidell - toe to toe bash fest.

Griffin has lost a few since if im not mistaken. From what ive seen Griffin was at the top of his game against Tito, high on confidence as well as fighting well. I think he'd struggle to recreate that form now.

The fight I want to see badly is a rematch between Chuck Lidell and Rampage Jackson, saw the first fight and a few highlights the other day and this guy made chuck lidell look ordinary he is just a beast check out the way he slams his opponents , ladies and gentleman I believe there is gonna be a new dawg in town soon lol !!

Not seen him fight, will check it out on Youtube. Watched the Lidell vs Tito fight highlights on Bravo at the weekend and they mentioned Rampage was back in it (where has he been?).
Also interesting they seemed to confirm Cro Cop was part of UFC now. Good news all round

Cro Cop and Rampage are fighting soon. Look on the UFC website for details.

As far as im aware Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Cro Cop have been fighting in the Japanese Pride Events for the last few years ,so may be worth checking out some of their fights on You Tube. Jackson is a pure savage, got skill but tends to love slamming his opponents into the mat as opposed to striking or submissions etc, glad theres been a shake up though as at present cant see anyone really testing Lidell. What has happened to Tito , used to rate him highly but seems to have gone off the boil!

I've seen loads of Cro Cop but none of Rampage as of yet. How does Rampage stack up against Fedor? Fedor is still top dog in pride isnt he?
