Pride 20 Wiki

At Pride 20, some of Pride’s biggest stars continued to shine, as Quinton “Rampage” Jackson earned a high profile knockout victory when he defeated Masaaki Satake by slam in one of the first bouts of the evening. Ricardo Arona won a close battle with Dan Henderson, and Wanderlei Silva fought future Grand Prix Champion Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic to a draw in a “special rules” match in the main event.


In the main event fight between Silva and Filipovic, the fight was to be contested entirely on the feet, and in the event that neither fighter was finished, the contest would be ruled a draw by default, although most observers agreed that Silva was the clear victor.
