21 years later and still nothing come close to even touching let alone eclipsing the anticipation and excitement levels that this co promotion managed to execute. That line up will only grow stronger with the passage of time. Was an honour to live through it, slightly sad how good we had it, compares to how.... different it is now......How big was this event? Wanderlei Silva was in the opening match!
This is what happen when you mix greatest kickboxing organisation of all time (K-1) with greatest MMA organisation of all time (pride fc) only could happen at a certain time and place. When Japan was center of the world for both kickboxing and MMA (having the best org of each sport in the same country) . God bless the yakuza
If Pride FC were able to do this by themselves, It would be impressive. But the fact that this is multiple promotions is why people showed up. Fans of K-1 and Pride FC

Japan was definitely the martial arts capital of the world at this time.
Looking at it now, it is full of kickboxing and MMA legends.
この時は…熱かった。
熱い時代だった
The biggest event in MMA/NHB history and it was appropriately an event. Love the touch of having Helio Gracie and Inoki light the torch
i miss PRIDE FC soooo much....best fights,shows and entertainment!!!!
97 thousand people, think about this... McGregor vs Khabib.... 20 thousand people. This was so special, I would love to see this upscaled.
懐かしいなぁ、、
会場にいました。オーロラビジョンで見てましたがｗｗ
あの頃の熱気、若さに戻りたい。
この熱狂に並ぶくらいのイベントが出来れば絶対日本中を元気にできる。
Damn near 20 years later and this event is still epic
PRIDE = Epic... this is like Olympics of MMA

This is the venue where the 1st Tokyo Olympics were held, so what you have been told is not wrong!
Here I am, TWENTY years to this day exactly....
What were the odds?!
盛り上げ演出要員で会場にいたのを覚えてる。試合も全部観戦したが一番覚えてるのは弁当３っつ持って帰ったこと。
この時は、まだ格闘技が熱かったし、スター選手が何人もいた。Dynamite=PRIDE+K-1だった。
今RIZINあるじゃん
6:30 ここからのBGMが死ぬほど好き。
PRIDE FOREVER I miss you a lot.
20 years later!
I wish i was there
PRIDE FOREVER!
Gave me shivers down my spine when I first saw this. It still does.

Useless fact to throw out...

武尊VS那須川天心
I was there
Yea.....you do realize that this is the result of TWO promotions running a show, right? Not just DREAMSTAGE.
DO WE CARE?????
Great #UFC what the hell are you waiting for??
国立競技場からの試合
올림픽여 뭐여 ㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷㄷ
This is when Mcgregor KO'd Fedor and Cro Cop in a 2v1 handicap match!
The same night he got on his knees and performed seppuku at the feet of Sakuraba because he realized he could never be half the man Saku is.
天心 武尊
Well yes but I dont think Zuffa had anything to do with this if thats what you mean. ;)
ペリカンが空から降ってきた試合ですね。
😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍
やば
これがあの大失敗のイベントk-1 Dynamite 2002か…。チケットぜんぜん売れなくてタダ券配ってなんとか客を入れたという…。ガラガラだったとか（テレビカメラはそれを映さない）。UFCのデイナ・ホワイトが言ってたのがこれ。
モニター小さいし、さすがに見えないなこりゃ…
ただの自己満大会だろこれ
MCGREGOR IS GOD. ALL PRAISE BE TO LORD CONOR.
Pete Mageet 50-0
Djendjis Can dont worry about that bullshit.Kids dont know about pride fighters 😂😂
91k? Bull fucking shit. That stadium only held 48,000 at that time. Counting the people in the infield, there was about 52k max there.
BS ur ass.They could remove seats
