I landed in Tokyo last week and i’m now trying to get tickets for the 20 july. The website for Saitama is just som general information on shops and restaurants. Can any japanese or other experts on buying tickets in Japan please help a lost mma-fan?

It’s a great time to be an MMA fan. DREAM’s cards are great, Bellator’s fights are outstanding (at least the few I’ve seen), WEC’s keeping the little guys interesting, MFC’s starting to step up and put more “names” on their cards, and let’s not forget Sengoku and Strikeforce. And HDNet’s got an hour and a half of MMA each day (except the couple days they put in ROH wrestling).

It was a majority decsion loss v HellBoy……

Bellator is an interesting situation, I do like what they are trying to do but ya “poor man’s WEC” kinda hits it on the head….

Yeah I hear ya on the LW situation . Wasnt that win though for hellboy against JZ a split decision ? JZ has never been finished in his losses , just on the wrong side of the call . The only other way to would be to have Hansen vs Alvarez and JZ vs Aoki … Then have the winners meet for the belts at DREAM 11 or 12 . The only snag is Alvarez’s commitment to BELLATOR in the short term view . He’s helping them start out and BELLATOR is another promotion to watch . Like a poor mans WEC IMO ….

I kinda agree with the JZ part of the equation, yet ponder this if you may….

Shinya Aoki is 1~0~0 (1NC) v JZ and HellBoy is 1~0~0 v JZ and well HellBoy v Aoki is split with one win a piece soooo there is always that… Futhermore Aoki is the WAMMA (F~WAMMA) LW champion and well HellBoy is the DREAM LW champion, and the missing piece (imo) is Eddie Alvarez who got destroyed against Aoki and won a UD against HellBoy is a crazy fight.. So to me it is clear that the winner of this bout will face Geisas in their defense of the DREAM and WAMMA (F`WAMMA) belts…

DREAM is doing soo good as of late its crazy, we got DREAM.9 which is an awesome card alone and plus the “Super Hulk” tourney now DREAM.10 is looking fab as well, CANNOT WAIT

Sounds like a good start to the card . The only fight I have to disagree with is the Aoki/Hansen fight . Hansen was supposed to fight JZ not too long ago and crapped out .JZ should be the first guy to fight then give aoki the winner .
