ryo chonan has kyokushin training. so if that interests anyone. so does bas rutten, who is one of the announcers, not sure if hes still doing it because the past few pride tournaments i havent heard him calling the fights.

[effectz]

bas rutten -- Has a 3rd Degree Blackbelt in Kyokushin, 2nd Degree Blackbelt in Tae Kwon Do and 2nd Degree Blackbelt in Karate.

I'll decide when the final cards line up. How much did you pay for the ticket?

I'm auctioning some tickets on eBay to the fight.

I'll be there! I hope Crocop will actually be fighting.

[effectz]

well mirko cro cop should be there even if hes not fighting.
he wants his re-match with emelianenko for the title, and after winning the pride all open tournament, ive heard that Nobuyuki Sakikabara is giving mirko a shot at the title.

so even if hes not participating, he would want to be in attendance
