  • Still one of my favourite fighters of all time. Shogun was electrifying the world in Pride. His stomps and soccer kicks were some of the best ever. His grand prix win was the stuff of legends and I'm glad to have been able to witness the magic of this man. The final chapter of the pride fighters are slowly closing but they will never be forgotten.

(Fleet Antiterrorism Security Team) Company so yes I felt the sadness of Shogun hanging up the gloves only difference is most of my fighting was for life and not for points or a belt. Edit: I actually know what he's saying goodbye to. The comraderie, the brotherhood, and all the good Marines I know I would never train with or see again. But in his case his fellow teammates and gym and the fans. The fans part I know nothing about! 😂

  • Man, Shogun Rua was my first favourite fighter, back when I started watching MMA as a 12 year old kid in 2009! It was right around the time he lost to Lyoto Machida, then won the title in the rematch, before losing it to Jon Jones. Absolutely loved watching his older fights in Pride, it was what got me into Pride in the first place, the way he demolished Rampage Jackson in the thai clinch is still one of my favorite performances in MMA. Holy shit how time flies... This guy is an absolute legend

Then came to the UFC and had that tough debut loss against Forrest, but he still rebounded and got to the top winning the UFC title. The guy has done it all...no shame in hanging them up at this point.
