Is the pride era dead and gone?

MMA is literally still in its infancy. Much more exciting shit to come.
 
"Strikeforce Era" fighters, still alive and well...

Strikeforce is 12-10 vs UFC, since acquisition:

Overeem > Brock
Hendo > Shogun
Werdum > Nelson
Werdum > Russow
Big Foot > Travis Browne
Lavar > Barry
Lavar > Beltran
Cung > Franklin
Cung > Cote
Nick > BJ
Peralta > Young
Peralta > Lullo

Big Foot < Velasquez
del Rosario < Stipe
Griggs < Browne
Griggs < Diabate
Lavar < Struve
Miller < Bisping
Miller < Dollaway
Cung < Wanderlei
Nick < Condit
Woodley < Marquardt

.... missing any??
 
P.S. - Not counting these (note affiliation at the time of acquisition):
Shawn Jordan > Oli Thomson
Mousasi >/= Jardine
Rockhold > Jardine
Shields > Ed Herman*
Shields > Kampmann
Shields > Akiyama
Nick > Paul Daley
Woodley > Paul Daley
Misaki > Paul Daley

Shawn Jordan < Kongo
Shields < GSP
Shields < Ellenberger
Paul Daley < Scott Smith
Maximo Blanco < Marcus Brimage
 
Anderson Silva

Dan Henderson

Silva had 5 fights in Pride, and fought in the Rage Cage or whatever in between. I hardly call him a Pride fighter like I would Hendo, Nog, Shogun, Wandy, Fedor, etc.

The Era is dead and gone, a few fighters remain, but let the dead Rest In Piece
 
"Decision" was his favorite.

At one point it was the most appropriate. I'm not sure how Dan went from a guy that everyone bitched about winning question decisions in Pride (and losing to Misaki) to KOing Fedor like it was nothing.
