I thought the post-fight/post-event could have been thought out a little better. This is the biggest fight in the history of the sport supposedly, a unification, an undisputed champion to be crowned, til now a wet dream in combat sports (fuck boxing). Maybe Dana White comes out and presents a newly designed belt that further puts a stamp on the unification, certifies it, a new era, he's the champ & only one.
However, maybe it's just indicative of how little Dana thought of PRIDE itself (a sunken ship if there ever was one) and given the results of many of the high caliber talent he's gotten from there maybe he's got a case.
Now I'm not too big on pomp and ceremony but on certain occasions maybe something is warranted to mark these little "history making" moments. I mean Dana White came out and handed watches & shit to the fucking winners of all the TUFs.
