It has everything to do with the fact that it was a Japanese owned company and the respect that a Japanese audience has for its gladiators of any combat sport. The fighters would tell you that its a completely different atmosphere because your average Japanese audience has a higher fight IQ than most so there was an incentive to put on the best match for the audience. Now, if a fight goes to the ground for 30 seconds, the crowd starts booing. Mostly bc they dont understand the fight on a technical level to appreciate whats actually happening.

Wanderlei had fought CroCop a few years earlier when CroCop was just transitioning from kickboxing into MMA, and most people thought Wanderlei probably ‘won’ that 1st fight despite the official draw result. But in this rematch in 2006, CroCop had grown into the best HW in the world not named Fedor. Still gives me chills on how Crocop mercilessly massacred Wanderlei here.

Sou fã do Wanderlei Silva da época, mas que lutador inteligente e frio foi o Cro Cop. Ele foi preparando o caminho para o chute na cabeça por meio dos chutes na costela, pois sabia que o Wanderlei Silva ia manter a guarda alta toda luta, isso por conta da fama de nocauteador do Cro Cop. Tiro e queda, condicionou e veio a bomba na cabeça.

Em uma revista na época apontava Wanderley como maior do pride, não pq era o melhor, mas pq em termos de projeção e alavancar o evento ... Wanderley era a marca do pride. Minotauro, Fedor, cro Cop, Wanderley e Shogun foram os maiores

O Wand foi guerreiro! Encarou um lutador da categoria mais pesada, sem medo de ir para cima. Infelizmente acho que ele ja sentiu logo no primeiro chute devastador que entrou na costela. A guarda alta, típica do Muay Thai, não ajudou e a técnica do Wand, de sempre caminhar para frente, se mostrou falha para o jogo do Crocop. Foi uma luta incrível. Essa luta eu vi ao vivo.🔥

Vi o Wand num podcast dizendo que sempre o Cro Cop armada o chute ele protegia a cabeça, por isso levava no tronco. Era melhor levar a pancada no tronco do que na cabeça, tanto é que quando pegou na cabeça ele dormiu. Cro Cop botou vários pra dormir com um chute na cabeça, a perna do cara é uma máquina de nocaute. Wand foi muito monstro de aguentar esse tempo todo de luta com Cro Cop. Corajoso demais! 🤟
