Pride coming to the states (question)

So when PRIDE comes Las Vegas will the rules still be the same? Will NSAC allow PRIDE rules? How boring would that be with no elbows, and also no knees or kicks on the ground? I for one prefer pride rules... pride rules with elbows would be the best imo. whats the word?

Nobody knows.

But I for one believe that elbows should be banned from all MMA competition. Cause too many cuts, and this isn't a streetfight simulation anymore.

no kicks or knees to a grounded opponent, but no word on elbows. that part would be up to pride. but the kicks and knees part is just part of the sanctioning rules for the state of nevada.

I don't get what's the difference between knees to the head when standing or knees on the ground. Its the same thig.

Really, the American rules have little logic.

Pray for Pride rules to be implemented!

The more weapons a fighter has, the more dynamic a fight is, imo. no elbows, kicks or knees on the ground?? That means the only strikes on the ground are shoulder strikes and punches. wow. weak.
