Default Fujita Added To Pride Shockwave
www.mmaweekly.com


Kazuyuki Fujita, who lost to Wanderlei Silva at Cricital Countdown Absolute 2006, will be fighting against a Georigian Olympic Veteran, Eldari Kurtanidze at Shockwave on New Year’s Eve. Kurtanidze, who has participated in '96 Atlanta, '00 Sydney, and '04 Athens Summer Olympics has won a bronze medal in '00 Sydney and '04 Athens.

When asked for a comment, Kurtanidze stated that "I am honored to be able to fight in the Pride ring. Georgia is renown for it's strong wrestlers, and MMA has become very popular. I think there will be more wrestlers making a transition from wrestling to MMA in the future. I hope everyone will look forward to Georgian fighters fighting in Pride FC. I have heard that my opponent, Mr. Fujita is a very strong fighter, but however, he will be my stepping stone for me. I would like the fans to know that there are stronger beasts throughout the world. I will be fighting for Georgia and will win. I am looking forward to go to Japan on New Year’s Eve."

Confirmed Shockwave fights so far:

Fedor Emelianenko vs. Mark Hunt (Heavyweight Title Match)
Shinya Aoki vs. Joachim Hansen
Tatsuya Kawajiri vs. Gilbert Melendez
Mauricio Rua vs. Kazuhiro Nakamura
Takanori Gomi vs. Mitsuhiro Ishida (Non-Title Match)
Ikuhisa Minowa vs. Kiyoshi Tamura
Yuki Kondo vs. Akihiro Gono
Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Josh Barnett
Kazuyuki Fujita vs. Eldari Kurtanidze

has anyone ever heard of this Georgian guy? there's almost nothing on the internet about him, except for his Olympic record, as mentioned before... sounds pretty impressive, but you never really know until the first bell...
