The main event clash between Fedor Emelianenko and Quinton Jackson at Bellator 237 saw two of the biggest stars from the PRIDE Fighting Championships era return to the spiritual home of the now-defunct Japanese organization, and “Rampage” wasn’t going to let the occasion pass without serving up a large dose of nostagia. Jackson gave a nod of appreciation to his old organization – which was run by the man who co-promoted Saturday’s card, Rizin boss Noboyuki Sakakibara – with his walkout to the cage, as the iconic PRIDE FC theme exploded from the speakers, accompanied by the distinctive voice of the “Screaming PRIDE Lady” herself, the legendary ring announcer Lenne Hardt. @Rampage4Real has arrived and is ready to do work at #BellatorJapan .
