Another great card is almost upon us once again. Pride's Final Conflict is on ppv on November 9th. I've been anxiously awaiting this one!
So far the card looks like this:
Wanderlei Silva vs Yoshida
Quinton Jackson takes on Chuck Liddell
Crocop vs Nogueira
and the latest to be announced and I do believe it's official is
Sakuraba vs Kevin Randlman
Any thoughts anyone? Got any predictions on the outcome?
As for crocop vs nog, hmmmm i want to say crocop but if he gets taken to the ground then he's playing in nog's back yard! and nog proved he's got alot in him and can take punishment
Should be an awesome fight
also think the jackson lidell fight will be close but i really like rampage so im going for him

Well, i'm definitely taking Silva as well. I'm not a huge Iceman fan but i know he'll give Jackson a good go. I'd like Jackson to win this one but I'm thinking Liddell is going to come out on top. I agree that this fight will be a close one! I'm also taking Randleman to win his fight against Sak. Doesn't Randleman outweight Sakuraba by quite a bit?
As for the Crocop/Nog fight, I'm taking Crocop all the way. I really dont' know if Nog will be able to take him down. Crocop is so quick. Regardless, this is going to be an awesome fight as well!
LOS ANGELES, California -- Three more matches were announced today to round out the fight card for PRIDE FC: FINAL CONFLICT, scheduled for November 9th, 2003 from the Tokyo Dome in Japan.
In a reserve bout for the middleweight tournament, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu legend and former UFC champion Murilo Bustamante will be taking on PRIDE FC superstar Dan Henderson. Bustamante is coming off of a close split decision loss to Quinton Jackson at TOTAL ELIMINATION in what many considered the fight of the night. Henderson's last PRIDE FC appearance was at BODY BLOW where he TKO'd Japanese fighter Shungo Oyama in the first round. In the event of an injury to one of the tournament participants, the winner of Bustamante/Henderson will step in.
In the second announced match, it will be a battle of super heavyweights as Gary "Big Daddy" Goodridge takes on UFC veteran and former King of the Cage champion Dan "The Bull" Bobish.
In addition, "The Texas Crazy Horse" Heath Herring will go head to head with Japanese fighter Norihisa Yamamoto.

Goodridge
rampage I hope he wins but it should be close
silva better win his first fight of the night, and I hope he gets his ass handed to him in his second fight although I think rampage/chuck winner will be a lil tired
bustamante should be good fight
Herring
Randleman, sak is always fightting bigger people, he needs to fight someone his own size and maybe he will quit getting his ass handed to him
crocop I really hope he wins, but like everyone is saying his ground game is not well known. we may learn something about him this time around against nog
The winner of rampage and chcuk will hopefully win the whole thing

hehehe....sorry but Wandy is my pick for tournament winner.
Now, if for some strange reason, he doesn't win, I'd rather Rampage win over Liddell.
