Official Pride Shockwave 2005 Predictions
    #5119773 - 12/29/05 05:41 PM (18 years, 3 months ago)



Special Rules Match-Ken Kaneko vs Charles Bennet
Title Fight-Wanderlei Silva vs Ricardo Arona
Title Fight-Takanori Gomi vs Hyato Sakurai
Title Fight-Dan Henderson vs Murilo Bustamante
Fedor Emelianenko vs Zuluzinho
Mirko Filipovic vs Mark Hunt
Hidehiko Yoshida vs Naoya Ogawa
Yuki Kondo vs Kazuhiro Nakamura
Makoto Takimoto vs Sanae Kikuta
Kazushi Sakuraba vs. Ikuhisa Minowa
AlexanderEmelianenko vs. Pawel Nastula
James Thompson vs. Giant Silva




My predictions:

Wanderlei Silva vs Ricardo Arona: I'd really love to see THE Wanderlei Silva come out like an animal and rip Arona apart. But Arona is a bad matchup, and styles make fights. It's almost too hard.. I'd like Silva to win, but my mind tells me Arona is more likely to "win" [read: take a nap on top of Silva].
But Arona will never, ever beat Silva, if you know what I mean.

Fedor Emelianenko vs Zuluzinho: This will be very interesting to watch. THE greatest fighter ever, against a behemoth - a behemoth with a purple belt in BJJ, no less. All edges and upper hands are in Fedor's favor, of course. But Zulu is a freak, and has nothing to lose. With that said, I predict Fedor will submit or KO him in the first round.

Mirko Filipovic vs Mark Hunt: Oh boy, this will be one intense matchup! Alot of history and grudges here. Most likely, the fight will remain standing - and hopefully so. Also as likely, the fight will end in a KO. Who will be the KO-er, is a bit of a tough call - although Mirko does have the edge since he has more MMA experience. But Mark Hunt has one of the toughest chins in the business and dangerously heavy hands, and is nothing short of a dangerous stand up striker. If a KO is going to come from the hands, it'll be from Hunt. If a KO is going to come from the leg, it'll be from Mirko. Hopefully this fight will go the distance. I predict Mirko will win by KO - but I'd like to see Hunt win this one.

AlexanderEmelianenko vs. Pawel Nastula Alright, I've never heard of this Pawel Nastula guy, except as of recently, and I've learned that he is a force to be reckoned with. But on the other hand, this is Aleksander Emelianenko we're talking about here. The brother of Fedor. The man grows stronger with each fight, loses more weight with each fight - which means he can fight with even more stamina, and his footwork improves every time. Not to mention his actual style of fighting is ruthless, scary and brutal.
I predict KO by Aleksander, round 1.

James Thompson vs. Giant Silva

James Thompson is the rage-head that we all saw get owned in a very classic fashion by Aleksander Emelianenko. But despite such ownage, he has been improving fight-by-fight, and he's always packed with energy - although his actual skills are questionable. Some say Giant Silva will take this one. I'm not too sure either way, but I'll give the edge to James Thompson, merely because I've seen him more and seems to be on a roll lately.


Time will reveal the Truth, come January 1st.. on PPV, near you.

Aw, did he beat your hero into bloody oblivion and murder your family afterwards? Shucks, that's just Silva, man.

I was watching TV and I just saw the blond haired Oriental guy beat up some dude. "Lil Jenkins" was the name of the beatee or something like that.

Gomi is on amazing form. I was im Japan in 2001 and watched him at Shooto, he's got great stand-up now as well. He should win convincingly.

Fedor, Saku, Henderson, Aleksander emilianenko,
basicly the favourites. I'd like Hunt to win, but Cro-cop should win this, he's more experienced and has better ground skills.

After one comes, through contact with it's administrators, no longer to cherish greatly the law as a remedy in abuses, then the bottle becomes a sovereign means of direct action.  If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it.  - Ernest Hemingway

If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it.  In the law courts, in business, in government.  There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent.    -Cormac MacCarthy

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.  - Aeschylus
