Though the Pride Fighting Championships have been long gone, the mixed martial arts world has ever been impacted by the legacy that the now defunct promotion has left behind.
The organization has produced some of the biggest stars in the industry today, including former champions Wanderlei Silva, Dan Henderson, and Quinton Jackson among others.
It was these same leading men that were delved in some of the more memorable bouts in Pride history, often favoring head severing knockouts that have since gone down as some of the most aesthetically pleasing finishes in MMA history.
