It's insane that Sakuraba actually beat Randleman

[Adamant]

The beauty of PRIDE reveals itself again.

 

[kenetics]

So does everyone, what’s your point?

No lol.

 

[Sakurabaism]

Kazushi-san is a special kind of fighter. Charismatic and mystical. He's a living embodiment of a warrior spirit - putting his body on the line even though the odds were stacked against him.

 

[Skarr]

memories....

 

[Prefect]

Dive stuff is nonsense. Saku was a gracie killer when that was something to be proud of. Also, I don't buy the fixed fight nonsense because Saku took a beating in a lot of those "dives".

 

[Pierced7681]

No lol.

What was Derns excuse for losing to Ribas?

 

[HOLA]

His size disadvantage is greatly overestimated. He was similar in size to Dan Henderson if not bigger. Sakuraba often weighed in around 200 lbs. Henderson sometimes wasn't even that.

 

[HOLA]

Pride paid Rampage more to take a dive againat Saku. Wouldn't be surprised if Randleman got that offer too

And Carlos Newton. That fight is fake as fuck.

Been watching the old Prides in lockdown, and yep I'm understanding the whole Sakuraba thing, BJJ didn't know what hit it ha ha

 

[Beastos]

I use to compete with his sweet sweet orange shorts

 

[Jone Jons]

if you're a real pussy like me, saku is the goat

WW Saku beat HW Randleman and LHWs Rampage + Vitor.

Prime Sakuraba beats any WW in MMA history

When you really think about what you just said. That shit is nuts that’s what real mma legends are made of. A WW fighting legit Hws and somehow finishing them, imagine seeing something like that today.

What was Derns excuse for losing to Ribas?

Was none , ribas was simply better.

 

[Pingu]

Rampage was inexperienced in professional fighting

Vitor was too cautious in that fight and Saku took advantage

Vitor tried to swarm him but couldnt finish and after that he got completely picked apart. Rampage and Saku had roughly the same amount of fights when they met.

I remember Saku said that fighting guys like Wand was unfair, because it looked like he had Bazookas in his hands.

 

[Bruce Lee666]

Saku destroying bigger guys,values Wand Prime even more.

 

[HOLA]

Vitor tried to swarm him but couldnt finish and after that he got completely picked apart. Rampage and Saku had roughly the same amount of fights when they met.

Vitor beat the shit out of him for 45 seconds, broke his hand, then stopped fighting.

He just flopped to his back and let Sakuraba kick him.

Randleman was a glass canon that Mirko/Fedor fans have to prop up to further prop up their heroes losses/close calls against him.

 

[Pierced7681]

Was none , ribas was simply better.

Yea ok I don’t believe you lol

Prime Saku was 183 lbs.

Saku and Dan are almost exactly same size. Those two guys probably have the biggest balls in MMA history. They were outweighed in so many fights. They both fought so many dangerous killers
