Dana’s expression is priceless. Caption contest time:
“I own you motherfuckers!”
Hahhahhahhahahah……..

BTW, before people go crazy, I know that Dana doesn’t own PRIDE. But he still has to feel a sense of ownership. That’s a shit-eaten ’I’m the man’ grin. Those comments reveal that Sak really didn’t want Dana involved. Feritta was the man that made it happen.

If this means no more Elvis Sinosek, Danny Abadidi, Ross Pointon, or Kalib Starnes, etc. – this is a good thing.

Now it’s time for the real fights to begin.
Raw vs. Smackdown
Pride vs. UFC
It only a matter of time now.

I like Erhardts thinking. There will be no more room for these chumps on UFC-PRIDE PPVs. Welcome WEC and Cage Rage guys…

Yep, this will definitely weed out a lot of the cans that have been kept around to fill in cards.

So so so stoked that this happened. MMA is going to explode even more. Having all the best fighters in one organization is awesome. Cant wait to watch some great fights

Hell yeah, Dana was grining the grin of a winner. He gets all the matchups he’s been wanting, shit he might as well own Pride.

$70 mill?
Man, the pay per view buys itself can probably elapses this number. 2 million buys at $40 a piece. Geez, that’s $80 mil. Not saying they’ll get all the money….but you get the point.
Gentlemen, if they set up some great machups together for UFC vs. Pride, 2million buys is a very realistic number.
Put me in there for one count.

Dana will represent the UFC and some other person will represent Pride. Someone else who needs to be able to trash talk. Are we going to see a Ultimate Pride Fighter Franchise?

I bet the first big even will be Japan vs USA in an all out grudge match. I wanna see Ironhead vs Sylvia. We’ll see how really “shitty” Tim is.

Yea, “all out grudge match”. Thats exactly what I was afraid of. People already confusing MMA with Pro Wrestling. I blame Dana for that (for bringing K.Shamrock and Tito back to UFC).

Im totally with YouTapped on this. I hate it when people compare MMA to wrestling. Wrestling is staged guys. It is purely for entertainment purposes. I will say that wrestling does take some amount of atheletic ability but you couldnt even compare it to the skills of a modern MMA fighter. Other than that though I am just as excited as everyone else is for the chance to see the best fighters in both organizations finally get a chance to face off.

Pro Wrestling is NOT staged!! I wont believe it! My heros, nothing but fakes, why didnt anyone tell me? alright, Im okay now, but talk about pointing out the obvious Matt(no offence)By the way, Dana’s smile wasnt an “I own you” smile, it was a hahah, I have the biggest dick in the room smile. I would know, cause its usually me smiling that way. So many potential great match-ups- dealt out one at a time over years, lets hope our fav fighters dont retire before we see them in our dream match-ups

Im just saying, if it is so obvious to people than why the hell do some people insist on comparing wrestling to MMA?

I think Dana and M Jackson should get 2gether.yeah,they seem like a good match,and not in the octagon i mean!!!

Maybe it’s just that ive never really been into WWE wrestling. I couldnt get past the bad acting and the matches being staged, I just didnt see the point in it. Before I got into MMA I first got into boxing for a few years. But could someone explain why people compare Wrestling to MMA so maybe I could form a more objective point of view on it?

Brett Hart was my hero until Vince “screwed” him.Now its all about the “Natural”!!!! Yo MISTER CHEEKS I didn’t know u turnrd 36 2day!!!!HOLLALULIA HOLLA BACK!!!!!!

No shit, who watches that crap now that we have mma? Its like a soap opera I guess. Never got into it either. Who would order a wrestling ppv?
