People think these two fighters are way out of their prime. For all I know Floyd hasn't showed ANY signs of decline. Pacman showed signs, but he's going to be ready. It'll still be his biggest fight in big career.

You better believe these two guys are going to fight like there 25 years old again.

Amen. I remember when I was a kid and into my late teens, a heavyweight fight was stay home, must see TV. Now, with a gun to my head I can't name a heavyweight other than Klitscho(and I don't even know which one of them is the champ).

This. Dumbest sport to transpire in the history of history.

Pride fighting was a lot better than UFC. I even went to a Pride fight in Vegas and watch Fedor vs Coleman. It was awesome.

Did you watch Mayweather vs De La Hoya? That fight was huge.

I miss the intros and entrances that Pride had, along with the fights of course. Broadcast team was top notch too.

In the old days, they would put a boxer against a karate dude or some shit.

Now THAT was tight.

When it became it's own regimen and style:

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRING.

Not a lot of people even knew what it was back in the day. I use to watch that more than UFC. Wanderlei Silva was the reason I watched Pride. His fight against Kazuyuki Fujita was brutal. It was crazy becasue Kazuyuki Fujita skull is thicker than the average human. Silva went to town on it.

Wandy vs Mark Hunt was a great fight too. I bought Pride 5 thru 10 on vhs after each event. The early Sakaraba vs the Gracies battles were awesome.

Its hard to be more wrong than this. Damn near every fight has guys with very different styles going at it. Wrestling, Karate, kickboxers, pure strikers, Muay Thai, hell even a couple judo fighters.

If you are talking about the weird overly-styled stuff from the earliest days, martial artists who do stupid shit that don't work was weeded out. If it worked, we'd see it.

The ass bomb.

May weather is a bitch. His only concern is keeping his record pristine so he can say he's the best. Pacman wants to beat the best so there's no contest. A champion in 8 different weight classes vs an undefeated who has until this point skirted any battle that he thought he may lose. Manny ftw.
