ttt Benavidez is Faber’s best student and according to him can work over anybody at the gym with weight being no consideration. Some pretty decent fighters come through Ultimate Fitness so he must at least show alot of promise.

I really dig Dream, I’ve pretty much put Dream and the UFC on par for my viewing pleasure… I enjoy both pretty much at the same level now haha.

Hansen being on this card has been known for almost 2 weeks.

and to #5: tournament reserve fights don’t work like that.

The chain goes like this: if a bout winner cannot continue, the loser of that bout is asked first to replace him. If that fighter declines, they ask the loser of the other bout. If he declines, then the reserve bout winner is slotted in.

Joe Benavidez is 7-0 on the Fight Finder but is there anything else anyone knows about him or is he just being fed to Kid?

Hansen will fill in nicely but will you really get a true winner if you place the winner of Hansen vs. Gill in the final in case of emergency? That does not show the tournaments best fighter of the tournament. I just dont like the idea of fighting twice in the same day. And yes I know that is the old fashioned , traditional way that it was done but I just dont like it in this capacity. It is entertaining to watch Hansen and Gill fight.

Good job DREAM. I like how they put up a reserve fight with deserving combatants instead of fill-the-void flunkies. Definitely adds to the watchability of the card.

I can’t wait to see Joachim again, his grappling was crazy last time which was a big suprise.

Awesome. Isn’t CroCop expected on this card as well?

Why do they have this on a Monday (or late Sunday, not sure of the time)??

The Japanese love them some Joachim Hansen and they’ll do what it takes to get him on a card. Get ‘em, Hellboy!
