I feel shame....there was a time when I would recognise/know 2 or 3 fighters out of most cards - handing in my mma fan card.

Im the same tbh. I'll watch the NYE shows when I can, but I usually just read the results with the other fights. A bit of a shame really, it's been a bit over 4 years since Rizin's been around and imo they don't have a great deal in terms of talent. That said, there's a lot more competition now re: Bellator, ONE, KSW, Fight Nights Global etc when back in Pride's day it was really just UFC that's it.
