Just when you think old wounds are healed, somebody mentions an old love and the tears start flowing again.......
Why, Dana Why!?!?!?!

dana white announced not to long ago that pride was 100% dead and will never resurface.

I agree with the people who say it should be closed but left viewable.
I also think it would be cool to have an Elite XC forum which could be an umbrella forum for all the promotions under Elite XC, like KOTC, Icon, CR etc etc

Definetly archive it, a lot of good posts in here. *tear*
As for the dare I say it replacement forum, I think it'd be good to have an Elitexc/Bodog forum as they seem to be the top two big dogs other than the UFC right now.

I think that there aren't any organizations big enough to fill those shoes yet. Archive it and leave the others where they are. When one starts to make some waves then maybe a new forum for it, but until then there should be the UFC forum and all the others piled in together.

I like the EliteXC idea. I am enjoying their shows more and more and the threads seem to get not noticed as much in the other MMA shows section.

Because it's time to move on and forget Pride ever existed. UFC is the only MMA that exists now or has ever existed. No good fighters were ever in Pride, nor were there ever any good fights in Pride. Actually there was no Pride.

How is it unproductive? It just sits there man, there isn't another organization that deserves its own section any more than the now defunct Pride. The frequency of televised fights from EliteXc and Bodog do not warrant their own section imo.

c'mon man.
pride is dead and the forum should be dead along with it.
keeping this forum alive is about as productive as having a "discussion of old mma fights" section

What is so wrong about talking about old fights? It is nice to reminisce and past fights have a lot of bearing on present and future ones. I actually think your idea is a good one.
