What is going on w/ Dream 9

- DREAM 9: MAY 26 ON HDNET - MMA WEEKLY - Mixed Martial Arts & UFC News, Photos, Rankings & more

Ok the JZ and Mayhem fights ought to be good as well as the LW tourney but what the hell is up with "Hulk" Tournament. Mousasi has been a MW and just recently decided to move up to LHW. Why is he fighting Hunt? The Sapp and Sokoudju fights are circus acts and WTF is Jose Canseco doing fighting Choi?

DREAM 9 is gonna be a prime time TBS broadcast


DREAM is having big problems with ratings


they expect the freakshow GP to get them higher ratings, it doesnt in anyway detract from the card, and it should be fantastic


minowa will finally fight bob sapp


really out of that whole GP hunt is probably the hardest fight for musasi


i think the idea may be to get mousasi over with the japanese fans by having him win a bunch of freakshow matches,m the japanese love freakshow matches

[VictorCharlie]

I know Japanese fans like the freak shows but Canseco? They should have got Sylvia to fight Giant Silva just to top it off. I am suprised Kimbo hasn't taken his act over to Japan. They would love him.

i dont think kimbo is known at all in japan


K1 at one point was thinking of using him, but i think taht was more for the HDNET broadcast then anything else


i dont think they have said that this is the full tournament yet, so maybe giant silva, zulu and butterbean can still get in this
