Its tuff to say, I dont think there is a welterweight in pride who could touch hughes or Franklin for that matter. Last time the pride champ vanderla was in ufc vitor punched his face across the whole ring. I wanna see a chuck and quinton rematch. But for pride, I'm not sure who could touch feador emalianeko(spelling lol) The only person who will stop hugh's will be George St Pierre!!! |
The Wanderlei Silva that got punched out by Vitor is a completely different fighter today. I dont believe that Silva was pride champ at the time when that happened, but regardless ask yourself where Vitor is today? Wanderlei has remained undefeated in pride for a few years now. I think any number of guys from pride wouldnt have too much trouble with Houghes or Franklin, guys such as Mirko Filipovic, Dan Henderson, Mauricio Rua, Wanderlei Silva, Fedor (although he's a heavyweight), and possibly Ricardo Arona.
Although, if UFC and PrideFC were to have a showdown, i believe there would have to be a mutual collaboration of rules and regulations. First off they should fight in a ring, cages are stupid, it doesnt take much skill to pin someone agasint a cage and throw elbows. Incorporate UFC rules into the Pride ring and other aspects of the game that'll be fair to fighters from both leagues.
