Agreed, but I'd say it's even less than 6 months (the MW GP was excellent, after all), maybe three. Since NYE. I'd point to the TV ratings for Bob Sapp/Akebono as being the main instigator of this madness that Pride appears to be suffering from.
If only UFC had the same money DSE had.
Akebono the famous sumo.........is'nt his rank high like Yokozuna or something had a fight with Bob Sapp? Was it worked and who won?
