Apparently PRIDE – or whatever’s left of what was once known as PRIDE – is in good hands. Notable quote:
Furthermore, Sakakibara told the audience that he felt Zuffa and PRIDE FC Worldwide Holdings chief Lorenzo Fertitta was a man of character, who could be trusted with PRIDE’s assets. More intriguingly, Sakakibara drew a stark contrast between Fertitta and former PRIDE USA president Ed Fishman, who Sakakibara disparaged as a fake, or an imposter in the fight game.
Maybe the bloodletting of talent isn’t as bad as we thought. Eh, yeah, it probably is.
