Pride Bushido 5 Wiki
Abandoning the Team Gracie/Brazilian Top Team vs. Team Japan format of some previous Bushido events, Pride Bushido 5 featured fights between some of the promotion’s fastest-growing stars. In addition to dominant wins by Takanori Gomi and Ryo Chonan, the event featured an early win by Mauricio “Shogun” Rua, an unheralded fighter from the Chute Box Academy who would go on to become one of the best of all time.
