There were rumours that they might be fighting each other later this year. But maybe it's all just wishful thinking.

Yes, it's always a pleasure to see him fight. I always pity his opponent, even if it's Fedor.

gentlemen,

Leon, apparently you can vote at pride's offical web site (www.pridefc.com) who fights in the semi finals for the final round of the Open weight tournament. I would like to see Nogeria/Barnett and Silva/Cro Cop for a potential Nogeria/Cro Cop rematch.

General, don't sweat it bro. You now know who cro cop is. For the record, he is team pie's god. Former Croation counter terrorist operative, K1 kickboxer and now Pride's #1 contendor (in my opinion). I'm fairly certain Cro Cop has killed people in real life, given his former profession and where he practiced that is by no means a stretch of the imagination. You can tell that is where he gets his surgical precision from. He dismatled Yoshida like I take apart a set of legos. That sh$# was brutal.

And silva, well, he was raised in the jungles of brazil by jaguars. He sleeps in a cage and has to be sedated just to be calm enough to get into a ring. Not much style, but for what he lacks in style he makes up for in sheer bruatility and ferociousness, almost cro cops oppositie, cro cop is like a smart bomb, every move is precise and planned, he wastes no movement and once he is locked in he will go until the fight is over.

Leon, you see the fight? You have any picks for the final round? Cro Cop and silva fought before to a draw, it would be great to see them go at it again.

it was a draw, and it was also under special rules, more kickboxing rules than MMA, I think they were only allowing 30 secs of groundfighting or something dumb like that. There is barely 10 lbs differnce between them, I think they need to go at it under full rules. Mirko Broke 2 of wanderleis ribs in that fight, man, you know their next meeting is going to be nasty...



check out wanderlei's rib cage. Straight nasty brother...

I saw his last fight against Yoshida and that was surgical precision like you said. Excellently done. I like to see him fight Wanderlei and after that I don't mind who he fights, as long as he wins.
Sam, do you know when the semi's will be held?
