"I was already thinking that I'm going to face Arona, but now I heard I'm facing Alistair and I'm happy that he's my opponent. He's a striker like myself, so it's going to be a very exciting fight. And also we're both kind of new faces to the fight world. We're not only strikers, but also he has some ground skill too. So I want to prove which fighter deserves to win this whole tournament as a new face of PRIDE. In the final round, I think I'll face Vanderlei. I respect so much about him, but for the final I don't hesitate to fight him because that's our Chute Boxe style, and I hope I win the fight. We'll put on a great show so please support us." -Mauricio 'Shogun' Rua

"I'm very happy that I'm facing "Shogun" because I was always hoping to fight him. We both have a striking background, but also we're all-around fighters. So this fight will be an awesome fight. Whoever the winner is, the audience is the winner of this Grand Prix. Thank you." -Alistair Overeem
