lol no it didn't.Yeah, I think that was probably his best version, but he also got finished by Wand (twice), by Shogun and Sak, had a close fight with MW Lindland, etc. He had some great ups and some downs in Pride, but I wouldn't call him an all-time #3 based on that, either. The Arona win was a bit questionable as the headbutt seemed to do most of the damage (whether intentional or not).
The headbutt blaming crowd has as much brain damage as Arona.
Arona headbutted rampage because it was slammed so hard off the canvas that it came back up toward Rampage.
The force required to get a head to bounce like that is easily beyond what is required of a KO.
