Here is a rough translation
Badly the year started and Rogério Minotouro already traced its plans and of its family for 2007. “I believe that he goes to give all certain e I am ready to conquer the cinturão. I am trained and very prepared well for this fight with the Wanderlei Silva. Already the Rodrigo, with this gone of (Mirko) the Cro Cop for the Ultimate, it can be the challenger of the Stench, e thus we will be able to invoice the two cinturões in 2007”, it believes Minotouro, that still it commented the victory of Minotauro in the Pride Shockwave, on Josh Barnett.
- The Rodrigo made an excellent fight. I confess that we were all apreensivos, pois como era uma revanche, ele não podia perder. Ele definitivamente lutou melhor, pois estava bem treinado – lembra Minotouro, que apesar de não ver a luta de Mauricio Shogun, comentou a vitória do chuteboxer. “Mesmo o Nakamura sendo um cara duro, o Shogun é um excelente atleta e impôs seu jogo. Com certeza é o cara a ser batido”, finalizou.
This is going to make a great fight and one of the first deserving title defences I have seen in Pride as of late. Rumors of wand vs henderson just didn't seem like an interesting fight and it seemed like pride was trying to increase the interest of american fans by bringing american fighter...that just DOEs NOT WORK. However glad to see that it didn't turn out that way and Wands facing a deserving opponent.
