It would be totally pointless to have without the crazy lady Screaming the fighters names. Especialy Crop Cop or Wands name. I can 't believe no one mentioned her so far.

Thats because she was annoying.

Hold a MMA event in Japan? LOL No way!! there is nobody who want to see MMA in Japan, just like Brazil.(extreme Sarcasm)
I say hold all UFC events in England....

What is Dana's obsession with England? is it there lack of gambling laws or what?, cause he going after the wrong market.
Canada is a bigger market and cheaper to travel to.
Brazil is also a good market.

I think that the best we could realistically ask for and maybe receive as far as Pride goes, is just a simple gran-prix tournament. UFC rules, refs, & cage with a blend of former Pride fighters and always-UFC fighters. Imagine this for a moment, Penn moves up in weight and beats GSP for the WW belt. He then is forced to forfeit the LW belt, which becomes the prize for the tournament.
Qualifying round

Nate Diaz vs Tyson Griffin
Gray Maynard vs Spencer Fisher
Sean Sherk vs Clay Guida
Winner of Edgar/Franca vs Rich Clementi
(Kenny Florian and Roger Huerta automatically qualify for the semi finals since they were previously rumored to be fighting for the #1 contender spot)

Quater finals
Tyson Griffin vs Rich Clementi
Gray Maynard vs Sean Sherk

Semi Finals
Tyson Griffin vs Kenny Florian
Sean Sherk vs Roger Huerta

Finals
Tyson Griffin vs Sean Sherk

One can only dream, I won't hold my breath.
