Just because anderson silva fought in pride doesnt mean he had a contract with them ADW, Anderson silva was all over the place before he signed a contract with UFC, And then when UFC bought out pride they accumalated all of their best fighters…the UFC elite doesnt soley consist of PRIDE fighters it consists of both UFC and PRIDE fighters. As for affliction im going to have to agree that they couldnt have another stacked card like that again, most of the fighters that were on the card were Fighters who couldnt cut it in teh UFC, with a couple exceptions, I mean look at Arlovski’s last fight in the UFC with his shit win over Werdum, or when linland fought in the UFC or when Silvia won over a credible opponent. UfC may have some lackluster cards but they still have a good main event and CO-Main event and they Know how to Market thier organization, that is why they will never go public, Dana white the Forenzo brothers know thier fans better then any other MMA organization and thats how they are going to keep growing and growing, it will be years before any other MMA organization can come out with a MMA game for the platforms and win best sports game at an E3 Coference.

Actually Anderson Silva did come from Pride. He fought there when he was with Chute Boxe. He may have left to go the UFC BEFORE they acquired pride but that is still where he came to prominence.

And think of how many Pride Fighters are doing well in the UFC. Anderson, Minotauro, Rampage(until a couple of days ago) Wanderlei is on the up and up. UFC fans is the man you need to stop talking shit yourself and realize why so many pride fighters have a hard time in the UFC. Fighting in a cage is ALOT different than fighting in a ring. Imagine taking a fighter out of their their element (the ring) and putting them in a cage against some of the best fighters in the UFC. That is what happened to Crocop and every other Pride fighter that lost in the UFC. You can train in the cage but actually FIGHTING in one is very different.

I believe that Shogun and other fighters should have been given some easier opponents to fight from the start so that they can get there bearings in the cage. Throwing Wanderlei in with chuck may have seemed like a good idea but I think that it should have been Wandy’s 2nd or 3rd fight so he could have gotten more cage experience (even though he has fought in the UFC before).

hey ufc fansucks, you are obviously retarded and dont know shit.
Anderson Silva didn’t come from pride. Thats NOT where he was aquired.
You need to learn about what you are talking about before you can run that mouth.
All the pride guys got their ass beatdown.
Go troll your kiddy-porn site, and shut the fuck up.

ufc fan what about pride fighting all the best heavy weights were in pride for a long time. once pride folded they took over the belts in the ufc, anderson silva had a few losses in pride. ufc was a breeding ground for pride once the fighters came over from pride they dominated, name 1 good heavyweight in the ufc besides the two pride vets, oh yeah brock lesnar what’s he got 2 fights. ufc is a bunch of lame ass tuf fighters besides the 9 or ten really good fighters. It’s nice to see a little competition for the ufc, i still watch all the ufc ppv but ufc 86 sucked the affliction fights will be better then anything we’ve seen in awhile.

Remember the right hand Couture caught Big Tim with at the start of their fight, look for Fedor to recreate that then finish him with hammer fists before a minute is up.

It drives me crazy when people like ufc fan write such stupid comments. UFC actual champion lost against fedor 2 times. Besides they arent that old… 32 isnt relly that old for mma fighters, sure its better to have 28 years old but the amount of experience thay have is great. They all have lots of fights left on them, they arent like Ken Shamrock or Don Frye…
Dont give ur opinion unless u r informed correctly.
AT LEAST READ THE HEAVIWEIGHT’S RANK.
is that too much to ask? seriously…

UfC Fan your a joke read over what you just wrote, the Affilction card is by far the best and most stacked card in the past six months easy! Ufc is cool but its more like a brand just like those stupid Affliction shirts i think if this event goes well Ufc is gonna have there hands full competeing with Affliction for a long long time. Its not gonna be some flop like IFL or Bodog fights just to name a few, it will be around to last! Dont get me wrong though the Ufc has the best fighters in any other weight class other than heavy weights the only HW fighter that Ufc’s got now is Nogera, who fedor’s beatin umm twice. So Affliction needs to establish there other weight class’s and they’ll do just fine, other than those stupid over priced T-shirts!
