Who Will Become the PRIDE Absolute Champion - Page 9

I voted for Nog. I really wanted Barnett to win the whole thing, but I thought Nog would have a better showing in the tourney. I thought if it was Nog vs Wand, or Nog vs Cro Cop II, Nog would take it. When it ended up being Cro Cop vs Barnett III, I kind of figured that Mirko would take it being the fresher of the 2 fighters and holding the 2 previous wins over Barnett.

Props to Mirko. He really had a great showing and came out very aggressive from the beginning. I think Cro Cop/Fedor II will be a little closer than the 1st time. Hopefully it happens on NYE.

I was dead on on my pick

I don't think Nog can beat Cro Cop anymore. Cro Cop has vastly improved his Ju Jitsu and it's harder to knock him out now and very hard to take him down. I think he would tire Nog out from Nog trying to take him down and land that beautiful SWEET CHIN MUSIC!!

Well of course not now, but before the tourney started Nog was a logical pick.
