Just because an american is on a Las Vegas pride card doesn't mean Prides trying to market american fighters, alot of these guys are straight up great fighters.
You might be right about the fights but i beleive they are trying to put Pride on the Map in the U.S. by marketing American fighters think about it on the NYE show they had coleman,randleman,baroni, barnett, henderson, lawler, and butterbean... All American fighters, wether or not it was on purpose that was just the vibe im getting.
