I'd like to see him fight ANY top 15 fighter in the lightweight division. Gomi, Bang, Yves, Kawajiri, Ribiero.

Yeah, anbody but Kawajiri. Kawajiri would school him.

I am not a big fight fan... outside of knowing people fighting, I would most likely now be interested at all... I mean if it were on while I was home I'd watch but I wouldn't follow. With that being said, I think K-1 does go out of their way to setup more "entertaining" fights. What I mean by this is they don't always match up the best fighters, wait let me correct that, they almost never match up their best fighters. But instead they make up some crazy headline and run with it! To the everyday Joe (Here in Japan it's the everyday Kenichi) these headlines leading up to the fight is far more entertaining to follow and the fight is just bonus.. Pride doesn't do that as well as K-1...

Yeah, I guess I understand where you're coming from. K-1 does do a good job with spectacle. They're really more like the pro-wrestling organizations in that way. For true fans of MMA, though, Pride is unquestionably the better organization.

Also, let me agree with Boogie regarding Genki Sudo. I enjoy his antics as much as the next guy but he really does avoid tough fights. There's been numerous stories about him declining certain offers from top fighters. I really think he's trying to fashion himself as the next Sakuraba with his victory over Royler and his recent hopes to fight Royce. At this point, though, beating a Gracie isn't nearly as impressive as it was when Sak did it. Plus, Sak will pretty much take any fight offered to him.

I want to see Genki's entrance at Hero.

really you don't... wasn't his best work...

Spoiler

I knew it was him in the front
