Still active Pride Fighters

The question should have been "Are there still active Pride Fighters, who actually won some fights in Pride, and are currently fighting without being punching bags for their opponents"

But good list!

Alexandru Lungu - one fight in Pride, he lost it.
These days he is fighting NON-fighters (amateurs or guys who are just being paid to show up) who never had one single win in MMA.


Barnett beat a 9-3 guy last month.

D Nakamura is for sure not retired
Yeah, I saw he had a fight scheduled on the co-promoted card between DEEP and a Korean organization.

There was rumor of Gomi boxing Pacquaio in RIZIN. PRIDE had a rumor of De la hoya boxing someone too if im correct.
The rumor now is that Pacquiao is fighting pro-wrestler Kota Ibushi.
 
The last Pride event was Pride 34 in April 2007, which is almost 16 years ago.

It is crazy that there are a few guys from that Era that have still competed recently but realistically it is a LOT to ask for anyone who was fighting at an elite level 16 years ago to still be competing, particularly at a high level.
