I wasn't saying anything bad about Pride, I love watching Pride. I just think Pride is closer to WWE than UFC is. UFC is far far away from WWE, purposely.
Pride tends to use training clips and shit in their pre-fight videos, where UFC uses interviews and fighters talking shit about eachother, it is the culture difference that is making it seem like a "show" rather than an event, which is what it really is

Now, I would have to check the recent events, but I'm pretty sure Pride usually has 2 or more fights than the UFC, so the "more content" part is very debatable

I know you weren't trying to say anything bad about Pride, and I don't want to come off as a Pride nuthugger, but I think that Pride is much furthur from WWE than UFC, whether it be the interviews and shit alone (not to mention sponsoring)
