Customer Rating: Summary: Incredible Pride event! Comment: I saw the reviews stating how good this event was and I decided to order a copy. Im not usually too interested in watching the lighter weight classes but pretty much this whole DVD is filled with great fights. Gomi, Hendo, Baroni, Sakurai help make this a must see event! I recamend this one. Customer Rating: Summary: Bushidooooooooooo! Comment: Unbelievable DVD. Of every Pride FC Bushido event, this one is easily the best yet. At first, the fact that there are no heavy-weights or even light-heavyweights on the card may deter some, but the fighting and quality of fighters on this card is top-notch. Dan Henderson has great matches, in fact, the entire welterweights tournament is great, but the light-weights are even better. Hyato "Mach" Sakurai and Takanori Gomi's matches are simply spectacular. This is definately a must-have, or must-see, for any true MMA fan. Customer Rating: Summary: Off the charts Comment: This product features a few of the greatest MMA fights of all time. And it is all on the same DVD. This is honestly the second best if not the best MMA event I have ever seen. Even the fights that go to a decision are exciting as hell. If you are an MMA fan. This is an absolute must have. Beats any UFC out there and I am a big UFC fan. The only comparable MMA event is Pride 33 which hasn't yet come out. Customer Rating: Summary: Instant Bushido Classic Comment: Bushido:The Tournament, in my opinion, is the best tournament in the history of mixed martial arts. Never before has there ever been a tournament with an all star line up and ever single fight is just as exciting as the next {with the possible exception of Baroni vs Minowa 2}.
Every other fight on the card is incredible as it features some of the best welterweights in the first weltereight tournament featuring Dan Henderson, Murilo Bustamante, Akihiro Gono, Ikuhisa "The Punk" Minowa and Phil Baroni.
Not to mention, the exciting lightweight tournament with lightweights like Takanori Gomi, Yves Edwards, Joachim Hansen, Luis Azeredo and the reborn Hayato "Mach" Sakurai.
If you are a true Pride or mixed martial arts fan, you will enjoy this memorable event. Highly Recommended. Customer Rating: Summary: 14 fights, none of the even close to bad. Comment: It features Gomi v Kawajiri, which was named Pride's fight of the year for 2005; Gomi v Alzeredo in a rematch of their earlier war; Minowa v Baroni in a classic rematch (layin' and prayin' [yeah, right] with an armlock most of the first round); Pulver v Mach Sakurai in another jeez this is great match; Joachim Hansen v Yves Edwards, ditto; Mach v Hellboy Hansen - wow; Henderson v Chonan where Dan shows his power; Bustamante twice shows us why he's a ju-jitsu legend; Damn, even the reserve matches are great! It is the best overall MMA card I've ever seen. My understanding is that the promoter for Deep was the matchmaker for Bushido, and as such, perhaps Deep can rise to take the place of Pride, 'cause I can't imagine the UFC boys can put on a show like this. BTW: Renallo and Baz are the announcers.
