      When Frank finished Igor, that was one of the most poetically impressive lift and slam executions we saw in that era. From start to finish in slow-mo, there was a confidence in Frank's look that likely instilled fear in the masses and that very finish is still as beautiful today as it was all the way back when.

    I watched each champion fight in their respective eras in real-time. It was a different kind of energy with every experience and then you tack on Pride FC's moment with the sport, and the smaller feeder leagues.... Even the arranged unofficial fights with huge starpower...Man, what a crazy life it must have been to be professionally involved and to see all of it go down firsthand...
    I remember the politics both corrupted or not, the bad blood, the controversies, the bar scenes, the golden age, the great merge, the backstage shenanigans, from hotel lobby weigh-ins to what you see today, etc,. etc,. etc,. It has been quite the ride which I still very much enjoy like I have since 1993.
