Just wanted to make sure everybody knew that the REAL DEAL event PRIDE is holding in Vegas will officially be a numbered PRIDE event. I have the feeling a lot of people think this is a side event and not officially numbered, which is why I see so many people referring to this show as "The Real Deal" and not simply PRIDE 32.

thanks for that tidbit.

i wonder what kidn of coverage this will get in JAPAN

Not to sound rude or sarcastic but is there an acutal real difference if it's not numbered? Again, no offence meant, just genuinely curious.

I assume if it's numbered than there will be no 160 and 183lbs fights?

I just got my tickets in the mail I can't wait, Pride in the US this is something I have been waiting for a long time.

Baroni and Murrillo Bustamante are rumored to have fights on the card. Why don't they # all of the events, even Gp's? They still # the Gp's on Bushido.

There's a difference in that it will be on PPV in Japan and treated as a regular event. It just seemed to me that some people thought it was just a fringe event PRIDE was holding in the States.

In that case you shouldn't have posted a reply in it.
