Pride does have tough fighters but the UFC is much more popular and better filmed and marketed here in the States and will keep growing while Pride will likely never be known outside of hardcore MMA fans. With the UFC's explosive growth and success, they will keep bringing in former Pride fighters and other mma fighters from overseas and outside of the organization until UFC makes up for any perceived shortcomings in the ranks.

At that point- which will come very soon- then the people who rant about how much better Pride is than the UFC will be no better than the people who brag about how they never watch tv. In other words, blowhards who might have some minor point but they are mostly just trying to be contrarian against the popular brand and the majority opinion.
