I’m ordering Pride 33 (headlined by Wanderlei de Silva defending against Dan Henderson) on PPV at my place tonight. Anyone interested?
Show starts live from Last Vegas at 9:00pm. The card (fight order from last to first):
PRIDE MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP – Wanderlei de Silva vs. Dan Henderson
Takanori Gomi vs. Nick Diaz
Mauricio Rua vs. Alistair Overeem
Sergey Kharitonov vs. Michael Russow
Hayato Sakurai vs. Mac Danzig
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira vs. SOKOUDJOU
James Lee vs. Travis Wiuff
Kazuo Misaki vs. Frank Trigg
Joachim Hansen vs. Jason Ireland
Opening ceremonies are at 9:00pm, and apparently we’re going to see all 8 fights and whatever whackiness they come up with for the “opening ceremonies,” though sadly that will be toned down greatly for the casual audience in the US. James Lee is a last-minute substitution for Kazuhiro Nakamura, who injured himself in training. There’s more than a few potential good to great fights. Wanderlei’s almost a given to beat Henderson, but it should still be a good fight if their last outing is any indication.
More later…
