You say Bustamante couldn't cut it in the UFC either, yet he was 3-1 and left with their Middleweight title. He then went on to go 3-6 in PRIDE thus far.
The other fighters you mentioned records all speak for themselves. They either are or were top fighters at the time.
You love to stir up the PRIDE vs UFC crap. It gets old.

I think Misaki has to be given credit for his training and strategy for the fight, he didn't pull a Babalu and play into the strength of his opponent. I would love to see a rubbar match between these too, in my opinion Hendo would find a way to pull it out.

I could see either guy winning the fight. I just don't know how it was shocking that Gono won.

Misaki trains with a great camp (Team Grabaka), and was very prepared for this fight. The 1st time he fought Hendo it was alot closer than people thought it would be. I think Misaki took what worked in that fight and used it to his advantage in the 2nd fight, and pulled off the win.
It makes the rest of the tourney interesting though because there are 2 Team Grabaka fights left in Gono and Misaki.

he had henderson's right hand scouted so well, it was almost automatic that he ducked it. henderson isnt that good of a set up striker and he found that out and used it to his advantage. he knew he just had to duck it. if henderson hit him with it he would have been out, its good to get the one punch ko, but sometimes u have to set it up with other punches or kicks and henderson doesnt set up his punches. but he didnt really damage henderson very well and had the fight gone on another round henderson would have ko'ed him. it just goes to show that even though his right is so powerful if u scout it right u can do well, henderson shouldnt always just go for the homerun.
mma pimp is right, fedor and henderson couldnt make it in the ufc. he also said that vitor and wand couldnt eaither. what a jackass
