Wiki
Pride Bushido 8 Wiki
Along with impressive victories by MMA veterans Denis Kang, Josh Thomson, Joachim Hansen, and Tatsuya Kawajiri, Pride Bushido 8 featured “The Fireball Kid” Takanori Gomi in the main event once again. After putting together a stellar record in Pride but finding himself overlooked amongst heavier fighters in the promotion, Gomi established a loyal fan following by headlining, and consistently winning, Bushido events.
