UFCThe Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is a U.S.-based mixed martial arts organization, recognized as the largest MMA promotion in the world. The UFC is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada and is owned and operated by Zuffa, LLC. This promotion is responsible for solidifying the sport's postion in the history-books.
UFC is currently undergoing a remarkable surge in popularity, along with greater mainstream media coverage. UFC programming can now be seen on Spike TV in the United States, as well as in 35 other countries worldwide.
If you're going to post rhetorical questions for emphasis, make sure the answer is obvious lest you look like a complete badass.
For your benefit though ill let you in on two secrets. 1) No.1 contender is not a Pride guy, 2) Neither is A.Silva.
Anderson Silva isn't the middleweight champ? Since when? I asked who the middleweight champion is, but I don't remember suggesting that he's a contender for the LHW belt.

He's saying Silva isn't a Pride fighter, since he only had a couple of fights in Pride and moved on to another organization well before ending up in the UFC.

Isnt this thread about cro-crop?
Not about anyone else or comparing slocrap to Liddell or none of that other stuff?
I realize cro-flop is boring, and its easy to stray, but stick to the topic.
Cro-crop NOT returning to the UFC, IF so, I am gonna celebrate, he bores me, and he sucks, and he is worse than watching a C-level scrub in a curtain pulling fight.

Note to self - elardo doesn't know what he himself means, much less anyone else. Avoid.

Yay, we have a brand new Troll here on MMAforum. I can't wait to see what sort of hilarity and hijinx this guy comes up with next. He's trying pretty hard to get into an argument, the only problem is that his act has been done so many times before. Try to be a bit more original in your approach.
Why don't you try starting a thread, that will probably get you some attention around here, there are usually a good 10-20 people that will be glad to argue with you for 10+ pages.
Anderson Silva will have matched the number of fights for UFC that he had in Pride when he fights Franklin in 2 weeks. Pride didn't make him sign an exclusive contract. So, since other Pride fighters fought outside of Pride during their contract, does that mean that they weren't Pride fighters? I agreed with a statement that Pride fighters have made an impact in the UFC, and people decided to shoot it down. If that makes me a troll, I can live with that. I like MMA, it doesn't matter if it's Pride related or not.

Anderson only fought 4 fights in Pride, yea he fought there before he fought in the UFC, but he isn't a Pride fighter in the same sense that CroCop, Nog, Shogun, Wandy, overeem, Herring, Fedor, Gomi and guys like that who fought the majority of there careers there.
By that Logic, Wandy is a UFC fighter. because he fought 3 times in the UFC before going to Pride.
Anderson is more of a journeyman who has fought all over, Japan, Brazil, Hawaii, UK and now for the UFC where he has by far had the most succsess.
No, he fought in 21, 22, 25, 26, and Shockwave 2004. I get what you're saying, but his Pride victories weren't for nothing. He won 3 of 2 there, and that's better than a lot of fighters did.
