I don't agree that it's as high as 90% but I do agree that they do seem to lose more often at times. I'd say maybe 60/40?

Now that Alateng is allowed to wrestle this should go even smoother.

@gliese58i, I was just exaggerating LOL.  But yeah it could be in the thousands for me because my dad used to bring home those old school UFC's on VHS.  I was also a big PRIDE fan back when I was in grade school so I've seen a lot.

Yeah I discovered the sport in 2005 with TUF 1 so a bit behind you there.

Anheliger has a good chin and even a good jab at times, he just can't seem to do anything after he lands a jab

@gliese58i, there was a time where barely anyone knew about MMA (in the US at least).  TUF 1 changed the landscape of everything.  I remember in the early days of YouTube I was showing friends and classmates Wanderlei Silva/Fedor/CroCop highlight videos... Pride really was better than the UFC during that time.  Sherdog was really the only top MMA website during that time as well.

I was way too young to gamble when the UFC bought PRIDE but I knew when Rampage came over to fight Chuck for the title, I would have put my entire life savings on that because I knew how badly Rampage outclassed Chuck in their first fight in PRIDE.
