PRIDE Fighting Championships (defunct)
Historically, PRIDE's rules differed between main PRIDE events and Bushido events. However, it was announced on November 29, 2006, that Bushido events would be discontinued. When holding events in the US, PRIDE abided by the Unified Rules, but added the prohibition against elbows to the head.

Famous quotes containing the words pride and/or fighting:
“And now the chapel’s silver bell you hear,
That summons you to all the pride of pray’r:”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
“The things a man has to have are hope and confidence in himself against odds, and sometimes he needs somebody, his pal or his mother or his wife or God, to give him that confidence. He’s got to have some inner standards worth fighting for or there won’t be any way to bring him into conflict. And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it. That’s all there is to it.”
—Clark Gable (1901–1960)
