hahaha that's a joke. "Pride rules" changed nearly every Pride event. If you watch "Smashing Machine" there is a whole scene where they are arguing with the Japanese refs about this. Apparently knees to the head of a downed opponent WERE allowed originally, then forbidden, then allowed again. That's why they went back and ruled Vovchanchin's win a no contest.

hmm, i don't know the details. i do know that in general, they were allowed, up until like Pride 32 and 33 (when the events came to Nevada, where knees and kicks on the ground were disallowed).
Seeing as how Rampage can take umpteen savage knees to the face and still remain standing, is anyone really going to ride for Forrest this summer? I do not think he is ready.
I know WEC probably doesn't get much love here, but I'm looking forward to seeing the Faber vs. Pulver match-up.
Undefeated as a featherweight is wack? Jens is a vet and I'm sure has the ability to take Faber down a peg or two. That said, Faber is conditioned, unpredictable, and relentless, and probably has a good chance of winning at this point in Pulver's career.

That is true.
