"One of the world's top pound-for-pound fighters, Norifumi "Kid" Yamamoto (17-1-0, 1 NC) has been taken off the July 21 card. Yamamoto suffered a torn ACL in his training, which resulted in his fight with undefeated up-and-comer Joseph Benavidez (7-0-0) being scrapped. At a press conference earlier today, Yamamoto was in crutches as Dream promoter Keiichi Sasahara announced his removal from the show." Fight Net article

Eff. We get Hunt/Overeem and lose KID. That sucks, I was hyped to see him live for the first time.



I was pretty depressed about the Yamamoto injury. I'm scared he only has 2-3 good years left and with all this disturbance and disorganization in the MMA world I'm not sure how much of a chance us fans will have to see him. I hope DREAM lasts long enough to get some good fights out of our overseas favorites.

So we got 2 days until Caol Uno straps on the LW belt. Is he going to beat Eddie Alvarez or Kawajiri?



Puh-lease. Rainbow pants all the way!

News:
"#8: Benavidez Opponent TBA Tomorrow

The opponent of Joseph Benavidez and the fight order will be announced tomorrow."

So looks like that fight isn't scrapped totally.

Sorry for DP, but I hope DREAM starts up a Featherweight tournament. They've got Yamamoto, Tokoro, and probably a host of other good Asian Feather's that I don't know. Maybe they could also lure Jens Pulver out from the WEC.

*according to mmaweekly.com*

9 Fights! Sweet. Hopefully they find a good opponent for Hunt. I salivate at what this card would've been if Mach/Diaz and CC/JLB went down.

They havent updated I guess. JLB was injured prior to the Hunt fight being set-up according to some sources, and that's why CroCop dropped off the card as well.

JLB/Hunt won't be happening.



True, I was just wondering why it was still listed.
