Pride Bushido 6 Results: Fedor Stops Kosaka
Pride Bushido 6 was held on April 3, 2005, at Yokohama Arena. Fedor Emelianenko defeated Tsuyoshi Kosaka by doctor-stoppage TKO at the end of round one in the main event. Aleksander Emelianenko knocked out Ricardo Morais in 15 seconds, Ikuhisa Minowa submitted Gilbert Yvel with a toe hold, and Murilo Bustamante earned a unanimous decision over Ryuta Sakurai.
Submission specialists on the supporting card
Bushido 6 featured ten contests, seven of which ended before a judges’ decision. Minowa’s toe hold finished Yvel at 1:10 of the first round, while Dean Lister submitted Akira Shoji with a triangle choke at 3:13. Paulo Filho added an armbar victory over Amar Suloev at 4:22.
Denis Kang also won by armbar, defeating Takahiro Oba. These results gave the show a substantial submission component alongside the Emelianenko brothers’ stoppage victories. The variety of finishing techniques makes the supporting bouts useful viewing for fans interested in the event’s grappling exchanges.
Decisions and later-round action
Luiz Azeredo beat Luiz Firmino by split decision, while Marcus Aurelio defeated Daisuke Nakamura unanimously. Bustamante’s unanimous victory over Sakurai completed the three contests that reached the judges. Daniel Acacio stopped Daiju Takase with soccer kicks at 3:34 of round two.
The main event’s official doctor-stoppage result came after a complete ten-minute opening round, contrasting with Aleksander Emelianenko’s 15-second knockout. That difference is important when comparing the highlights: both were stoppage wins, but their duration and recorded methods were very different. The full card provides that context beyond the main event’s rematch narrative.
