Please, Master, educate that ignorant young ling.

Bums like this one or that other one:

Pride, and Japanese MMA in general, is the biggest hoax/coverup in MMA history. Pride would have their top established MMA stars "fight" in squash matches against pro wrestlers with little to no MMA experience just to pad their records. Even the beloved Fedor was fighting NWO cast offs like this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuji_Nagata while Fedor was the reigning defending Pride HW champion.

Imagine Stipe taking a fight with Triple H right now, that's how absurd Japanese MMA is/was. Not to mention it was all predetermined according to past Pride fighters and associates, even CroCop's former manager admitted that CroCop fought in fixed fights. One need look no further than Crocop's fight with Albert Del Rio in a fucking Luchador mask for proof. That is a "real fight" listed on his record ffs, a squash match against a Pro Wrestler in a fucking Luchador mask, this "fight" was also neither sanctioned nor commissioned.

ALL of Pride was fake af IMHO and i don't consider any of it REAL MMA as none of it was officially sanctioned by any outside commission. Even Rampage confirmed that Pride had fake fights:

Spoiler

Not to mention that Pride was literally giving their fighters steroids like Halloween candy according to Heath Herring and others. Not to mention their fucking refs wore ear pieces to receive cues from the backstage a la WWE refs. If you really want to know just how fake and disgustingly corrupt Pride was, just do some research into why they had to shut down, trust me you'll agree with me once you know why they got their TV contracts cancelled.

Was Pride great to watch and amazingly entertaining? Absolutely it was, but so was/is the WWE, and that's all Pride was to me, pure sports entertainment.

...are gonna have to pay their dues to get dat ol´school Gono ass-whoopin´, tho...
