    Ah , Cung Le!!! I'll watch this event just to see him fight. Chances are that he'll be facing some stiff compe ion, atleast from the way this list looks.

    Well it looks like the LHW le fight will be between the LHW champ and the MW champ afterall...

    Wand vs Henderson I was a war, so I'd expect the same from this fight...

    They got the American vs non-American that they wanted. I wish they'd just make the matchups and stop trying to cater to the American fan...

    I'd have rather seen Wand vs Little Nog, or even Wand vs Arona...

    We'll see.
    They def need to throw someone pretty good at him or IMO he could make relatively quick work of them.

    Who knows with Dan.... I didn't think he would stay in the fight game this long. I remember him saying in an interview about 4 years ago that he was getting serious into construction business and not be fighting much longer. Of course, you can make much more as a fighter now than you did back then.

    Here's a new Fedor interview from worthless "Sherpuppy"...

    http://www.sherdog.net/forums/showth...hreadid=493010

    His fight with Jeff Monson for Bodogfight has been moved back to April, but I haven't seen any rumors of Fedor fighting on the Pride 33 card now. He did sign an extension with Pride though, so he's not going anywhere...

    Big Nog will be there, but only to support his brother...

    http://www.sherdog.net/forums/showthread.php?t=497755

    The rumor was that Pride wanted Aleks vs Nog but Aleks said he didn't have time to prepare for a fight with Nog...

    Latest...

    Nick Diaz signed a 2 fight deal with Pride and will face Gomi at 160 lbs

    Give me Gomi by violent KO...

    Here's a cool Gomi HL...(scroll down some)
    http://mma.tv/tuf/index.cfm?ac=ListM...27&FID=1&pc=52

    Also Mac Danzig signed and will fight Sakurai...

    http://www.mmaontap.com/mma/entry/da...i-at-pride-33/

    Huge test for Nick...he's a gamer, but I think he's going to get KTFO...

    Mac Danzig is a nice signing...

    Rumors....

    Arona vs Nakamura
    Sergei Vs. Yvel
    Shogun vs Overeem
    Robbie Lawler vs Cung Le (fight was offered, but he has another match that he'd have to cancel)

    http://www.sherdog.net/forums/showthread.php?t=498840

    Also, regarding Nick Diaz...this is from TJ DeSantis from Beatdown Radio:
    "When PRIDE does shows in America they have to follow the unified rules. The NSAC rules are 160 is in the welterweight division. So I would assume he would stay at 170"

    Have to see if he's right or not...or if there is something in Nick's contract that forces him to fight at a catch weight of 160...

    fromm Graciefighter.com...

    We spoke to Nick Diaz on his upcoming encounter with current lightweight Pride Champion, Takanori Gomi. The 23 year old did not refrain from expressing his thoughts:

    "I don't think he has anything to offer that I haven't seen before. I think I've fought tougher guys than him. The guys I've fought hit harder, were better wrestlers and better grapplers. What does he think he'll be able to do to me? I'm not intimidated at all and if he thinks he can knock me out that's fine. I think he'll be the one getting an ass beating so I hope he's ready." - Diaz

    Gomi by KO...
