After seeing Bob Sapp fight in fixed fight after fixed fight recently it got me thinking about Fixes back in Pride,
Im sure a lot of the long term fans of MMA are aware that there is a lot of talk about some Pride fights being fixed.
I was wondering if anyone knows what fights were rumored to be fixed?
I know Coleman said his fight with Nobuhiko Takada was a fix. Off the top of my head its the only one I know that is generally accepted as a legit fix.
I think I remember Rampage saying he was told he would get paid more to loose to Saku or something like that but I dont think the fight ended up being a fix, I think it was just he would get paid more if he lost!
Goodridge hinted at his fight with Ogawa was a fix too, I saw that in a recent interview but I dont know if there is any truth in it.
Anyone know if there were other fights said to be fixed in Pride?
