It will be one of the best 3 events of the year. The other 2 will be Pride's "The Real Deal" and the New Years Event.

YES, great card, and GREAT reserve bout with Kharitonov VS A. Emelianenko. PRIDE just has the roster to make such entertaining/allstar tournaments & events. Can't wait man.

Not enough depth and they are really pushing hard to keep the US market at bay and trying to feed us 1 main event and 1 OK main event and keep Pride or any other org out of the picture and the newer fans will not know any better, they will all just assume that is as good as it gets (like boxing with only 1-2 big fights per PPV).
Boxing fighters get paid so damn much so they can only afford 1-2 good fights per PPV but UFC pays shit so they are well cappable of stacking cards.
Hopefully Pride forces the issue, this is the ONLY way UFC will ever increase their PPV fight card depth IMO.

ya but Boxing already put out a good 3-5 good fights this year alone ha ha and there not done yet
I cant wait for the Corrales fight
Taylor vs Ouma is gonna be good
Mayweather vs Baldomir is gonna be good
Boxing is back regardless if the typical UFC-homer wants to admit it or not.. but Boxing has produced this year, and next year were gonna see
Mayweather vs De La Hoya which will be great, and Wright vs Taylor 2.
