What does everyone think is the best ALL-AROUND card you've ever seen in PRIDE/UFC for a single event?

Pride 33 was phenomenal Sokoudjou knocking out lil nog, diaz dominating gomi, and a very sick wanderlei putting it all on the line against henderson, shogun beating overeem AGAIN those are just a couple i loved that card but i personally think that UFC 7 has potential to be the best card ever

I am truly hoping UFC 73 proves to be in the class of Pride 33 & UFC 7 when all is said and done.

Pride 33 is the most recent one that comes to mind.

I remember enjoying UFC 52 (Couture vs. Liddell 2) as well, lots of good fights, Hughes/Trigg 2 (the low blow and great comeback), St. Pierre beating up Mayhem Miller, Salaverry beating Riggs, Doerkson and Cote war. Hell maybe it was all the Canadians on the card that did it for me lol.

Bushido 9... hands down....

Even if you're only looking at the LW tourney:

Pulver / Sakurai
Gomi / Kawajiri
Hellboy / Yves
Azeredo / Kotani

Then Gomi / Azeredo & Mach / Hansen...

Plus there was the majority of the WW tourney as well...

If there was one show that I wish I could've been to, this would be the one...


Damn you Dana for cancelling this years GP

Bushido 9 is hard to top. Pride 33 was deffinitly the last great card. Two that haven't been mentioned are Shockwave 2004 and Final Conflict 2005. UFC 73 and 74 both have the match ups and names to get in this discussion.

I agree that Bushido 9 was one of the top MMA cards we have ever seen. The lightweight tournament alone made up some of the most competitive fights we have seen in years.

I'd have to agree with Bushido 9 and PRIDE 33 as being top cards. Another one that's high up in my books is UFC 34. Lots of great finishes in all departments... BJ Penn destroying Caol Uno is one of my favourite matches of all time, and while I didn't agree with the decision, the carlos newton/matt hughes situation is something that's just so unusual and rare that it's amazing to watch. Several of my favourite UFC fighters were on there with some nice sub and ko victories as well.
