according to bloodyelbow Kid Yamamoto is in talks with the UFC about joining Zuffas new Featherweight division.

Yamamoto was one of the most impressive fighters around for a period until losing 2 fights last year. Hopefully he can continue his winning ways and sign with the UFC

He was the victim of a bad decision against GP winner Kanehera. Reports of kid's demise are exaggerated. He needs to be at 135 though.

I agree wolf that it easily could have gone eitehr way, I would be shocked if he ended up not fighting at 135

he was dropped flat on his face though at one point by Kanehara which does bring into question how'd he fare against FW punchers in the UFC.

Faber would beat Yamamoto but it would be fun to watch.

Would be an awesome signing to throw a little spice on the stale FW division or boost the pretty hot BW division. Kid is still a killer. The Warren decision was pretty narrow and the Kanehara one was BS.

I would think that will be his first or second fight. Joe Silva is already drooling to make that fight.

God I hope they make this happen! Would love to have had him 2 years ago, but I will take him now too. This just helps open up Japan to American companies.
