Final Preparations! Getting Ready For The Fifth Dream « Nightmare Of Battle
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.

2. Randy "The Natural" Couture
3. BJ "The Prodigy" Penn
4. Forrest Griffin
5. Andrei Arlovski
I heart DREAM
Memo to all fighters, especially the Diazes: It's not gilly-tine it's gi-a-tine. Gi like the thing you wear when you do ju-jitsu.

Hunt vs Overeem added!
The Fight Network
"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.

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

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.
