Equal? Hardly...
PRIDE
1) Silva
2) Shogun
3) Arona
4) Little Nog
5) Igor
6) Overeem
7) Nakamura
8) Randleman
UFC
1) Chuck
2) Babalu
3) Tito
Not very even IMO as no one else in the LHW division would have even the slightest chance at beating any of those 8 Pride fighters.
Also Big Nog is only 231lbs and Chuck is 205lbs so only a 26 lb difference and not 40lbs. Fedor vs Chuck is only a 28lb difference which is proabably accurate but the Big Nog vs Chuck weight difference come fight time is only around 12 pounds as Chuck comes into his fights at 220lbs and not 205.
Certainly still a weight difference but nowhere near 40lbs as you stated and 12 lbs is not very much of a difference as that is what any LHW fighting Chuck or Tito must face as well as any fighter fighting Franklin, Hughes or GSP as they all come in heavy.
