interesting

what is it?

Pride 25 maybe? Looks interesting...

It's pride 25 but when I found it, it only said body blow.
I'll translate the japanese site later and see if there's any more.

Is it from the pride Japan site?

no that info was from the engrish site but they usually post more info on the japanese half

It takes them forever to update there english site, I havnt looked at the english or the japanese site since wednesday......

I checked the Japanese site and it says basicly the same thing.
I did see this and thought it was kind of interesting.

Hidehiko Yoshida kicked off 2003 by training with players from the Hanshin Tigers, a professional baseball team in Japan. Training included weight training, catch ball, toss batting, etc. Yoshida first fight for 2003 hasn't been decided yet but according to Yoshida, "I've got to keep my body ready to fight at a moment's notice." When asked about the possibility of a match-up with Bob Sapp, Yoshida hinted, "It would be really popular. If (that fight) gets put together, I'll plan for everything. If he wears a gi, I can probably throw him. Well, it would really be just rolling him over." Also training at Yoshida's dojo was last year's All Japan 100 kilo-Division Judo Champion, Kazuhiro Nakamura. Speculation has become heated that Nakamura will also make his pro-debut. "I'd like to see how far I can take my Judo in MMA. If I can take them down, I won't lose"

I cant wait I was worried for a bit about what was gonna happen after the death of the prez(rip).
