[Rich]

I'm sorry, there will be no posting or actions in the thread on the sabbath from now on... you schlep!

[Rich]

So we have Dream this weekend, so if you don't know the slightly differing Japanese rules by now, all it is, is you choose the three fights you're most confident of the results of and mark it as "<-TOP 3"

We have a smallish card as this is all I know has been announced, but different than normal 22:00BST/14:00 PST deadline on friday applies, good luck guys!

Shinya Aoki vs. Tatsuya Kawajiri (title match)

Gegard Mousasi vs. Jake O’Brien

Michihiro Omigawa vs. Young Sam Jung

Gesias Cavalcante vs. Katsunori Kikuno

Melvin Manhoef vs. Tatsuya Mizuno

Karl Amoussou vs. Kazuhiro Nakamura

Mitsuhiro Ishida vs. Daiki Hata

[Guest Mr. Holland Head]
