    I think it was so-so at best. Most of the matches were pretty boring.

    The Ninja match and the Rampage match were worth buying the ppv ( I live in Japan atm) though. The Werdum match and the Crocop match wasn't that bad. It's good to see Rampage back, and with agression again. (What's his new camp? I know he's left Oyama but that's all) However, the rest of it was very frustrating.

    Love to hear people's points of views on some of the results. If you've seen it you'll know what I mean. (Also trying not to totally spoil it)

    What's it like being at the live event? I always heard that it could be boring but still a live Pride must be something. Where in the arena were you?

    As it seems like no one else is talking here. What's your view on the two seemingly early stoppages? The first one was pure BS from everything I've seen, but the second not so much. He did turn his back and take unanswered punches.

    I agree the second one was a good stoppage.
    With his experience, if he turned his back then he was in trouble.
    Its not the first time he has argued a decision - same ol ****e.

    Damn I would give my left nut to be at a Pride event.

    I was in row 7, yes thats right 7 rows away from the ring on the side where the blue corner fighters made their entry, and it was an experience I was with two lads who do not know much about MMA, but they really enjoyed the whole show and day, the production so to speak.
    The stoppages were disappointing , we all felt that way, but Sakuraba is so popular its hard to get your head around it, strangely Josh Barnett got one of the biggest welcomes of the night !
