I think why did PRIDE beat K-1

Sunday, January 1st, 2006

this is news source(Japanese) PRIDE:15.3%  K-1:14.8% と言う訳で男祭り(8時~)は15.3%、Dynamite!は14.8%と僅差で男祭りが勝利!! 正直この結果は意外でしたね。 Otoko Matsuri won by a little difference! Honestly, this result was unexpected. 番組としてのまとまりはDynamite!!の方が上って書きましたし実際視聴率ではDynamite!!が上回るだろうと思っていました。(I thought Dynamite is better than PRIDE as Tv show,not as fight event so,I thought K-1 beated PRIDE in Tv rating war…) と言うのが須藤×KIDがやっていた時間にはすでに男祭りは時間を持て余して再放送に入っていましたし (Fuji tv broadcasted replay when TBS broadcasted Sudo-san vs KID-san) この時間帯でDynamite!!が大きくリードするんじゃないかなと。 ただ、それ以上に曙×ボビーのグダグダ感が響いてしまったようですね。 […]
