MIKE TYSON VS FEDOR = PRIDE 50,000 Seats SOLD
If pride was smart they would get MIKE TYSON VS FEDOR because they could hype that all the way to the bank.. They could have them sign a stand up only contract so the fight would last a few minutes and look like tyson had a chance... Fedor would destroy his legs right away to take away the sting then beat him down with those amazing HAYMAKERS he whrows around the moon and to your jaw....
Yes the fight would suck but it would really gather the attention of all the TUF NEWBLOODS... People would see the difference between a boxer and a modern fighter even without the takedowns...
If they put on a huge card with that as the headline in a football stadium in Cali they could sell 50,000 $40 seats no prob.... (Strikeforce did close to 20 with FRANK SHAMROCK) It would be just to show the POWER of MMA and would set the sport into NFL status... But only with a full card with 8 matches all biger names...
Oh and throw in a Frank Shamrock vs any top fighter and they could probably charge $50+ and sell out the same...
Peace
