Why this card matters
The shiny version of the Wanderlei/Arona head-to-head card, from the 140-card Holographic run that parallels almost the whole base set. It is the closest thing Silva has to a chase card from his rookie product, since no certified Silva autograph from the 2006 set could be found — and Arona is the man who put him out of the 2005 Grand Prix.

- Dealer title reads '2006 DSE Pride Fighting Championships Trading Card - Sparkle - #125 - Wanderlei Silva / Ricardo Arona'
- Cardbase records the set's shiny run as 'Holographic' (140 cards); 'Sparkle' appears to be a dealer's name for the same treatment
- Shares number 125 with the base card — the treatment, not the number, distinguishes it
- Two-subject card, so check both fighters when matching a listing
Disputed
Combat Kingdom is the only source listing a Wanderlei card at #125 and the only source using the word 'Sparkle'. Cardbase names the set's shiny variation 'Holographic', so 'Sparkle' is treated here as a dealer synonym — that mapping is inferred, not stated. Whether a plain base #125 also exists was not confirmed.
