Lil Nog gets KTFO in 23 seconds by an unknown...

Diaz who has a poor record against elite 170lbs fighters subs and really owns Gomi. Except for a take down and knock down early in the first this figh was all Diaz.

Wanderlei gets KTFO by Hendo. Wow, that was an awesome match and I'm not sure if Silva has any gas left in the tank. It might be Shogun time.

Great event, but man Pride took a black eye with all their top draws getting owned. And, now we might never seek Chuck v. Wanderlei.

You know, with the popularity of MMA growing, you figure there would be more than the same 15 guys discussing the events on this board...

Hopefully that will change.

It's funny how some average UFC fighters go in to Pride and do well, Diaz,

And then on the flipside, you have a Pride washout that is the UFC champ in Silva

Styles make matches. Also the UFC WW division is far deeper than Prides LW division. Pride has always tried to keep the LW division Japanese because it was the only division they had a solid corps of talent. Gomi is a good striker, but he ran into a guy who can bang and was light-years ahead of him on the ground. Diaz has only been stopped once in his MMA carrier. He wasn’t going to get KOed and that screwed Gomi’s game plan up.

As for Silva, he very well could have lost to Travis Lutter and I think will likely drop the title this year. He has a huge hole in his game and if the UFC brought in Lindland, Lindland would own and expose Silva.

check out my UFC thread on the Entertainment board. They seem to get more action over there.

As for this one... Gomi vs. Diaz was awesome.
