DREAM.16, All Fighters On Weight(Aurelio is fighting)

http://www.mmafighting.com/2010/09/24/thompson-kawaguchi-added-to-dream-16-all-fighters-on-weight/


Dream 16 is looking good to me. Exspecially since I'm broke as a joke and can't afford the ufc ppv. It's alot easier to stomach when I get to see fighters I like just as much as the ufc fighters fighting saturday. Like Gegard, Aoki, Miller, Takaya, Hansen, hell who don't like watching Minowa fight? There's gonna be some good fights for the ufc but with this Dream card I'm not gonna be sad to miss it.

Also Aurelio is fighting, I don't know if I missed that update or what but I didn't think he was but he is. His fight with Aoki should be good.

Yeah that Aurelio update came up already, easy to miss though.
Did you see Thompson come in at 290lbs?

DAMN! No I didn't. Mo fo put on some weight.

Hellboy needs to win damn it! And I hope Gegard's fight doesn't last 2 seconds. I'm picking Aurelio to beat Aoki. I know Wolf disagrees. What does everyone else think?

Yea but atleast it isn't Sylvia kind of weight.

Maximus has been worthless for years. Aoki will decision him easily.

im rolling with Aoki via gogo

I'm actually pretty stoked for Minowa's fight. Fighting Iishi who entered the sport last year to a lot of hype..the fix probably isnt in for this one.

This will be his first non-fixed fight in atleast his last 3 Dream appearances

I think i'll give him the Sokoudjou fight. I thought Sokoudjou was extremely fishy in round 2 of his fight with Minowa but he looked exactly the same in round 2 against Houston Alexander. So maybe that was no fixed because Sokoudjou still had some tiny bit of reputation to protect in that fight.

The Ambritz fight was definetly fixed, so was the Sapp fight more than likely.

Yeah I'll give him the Soko fight. I thought he had one more fight squeezed in there after that one

Thats right...he beat an obese Imani Lee to suprise...heel hook in his last fight.

when is this I love Dream

The Voice is such a Minowaman nuthugger and you can tell Trigg thinks it's all horseshit and Ishii should beat the crap out of him if he's worth a damn.

Aoki dominated Aurelio. Probably should have finished him but Aurelio has never been submitted.

arm triangle finish for Mayhem.

That looked way too easy. Sakuraba does not need to retire but he should not be taking fights with guys like Mayhem.

Damn Mayhem. I thought he might go easy on Saku. Saku, hang em up please. Or stick to fighting Ken Shamrocks.

Mousasi raped that guy. Good wrestling, head movement, sweeps, GnP and BJJ by Gegard tonight. Just a complete well rounded MMA beatdown.

I missed the earlier fights and that sucks cause reading through the results all my boiz won.

I tuned in just in time for Omigawa-Escovedo. Quick, slick sub for Omigawa.

Slick knockout by Takaya on Chase Bebee

Ishii dominated Minowa with his judo in a pretty boring fight.

Aoki made Aurelio look like a blue belt. Aoki probably could have got the tap if he ever bothered to go for it. Maybe showed him a little too much respect.

Mayhem mugged Sakuraba.

Mousasi looked great. Granted he overmatches Mizuno but his ground work was very impressive against a guy who's solid in that realm. Even when Mizuno got on top i was impressed with how easily Gegard swept him back to a dominant position.

The card was pretty good. There were definitely some boring fights, but there were some exciting ones also. I have a feeling the UFC card's gonna be better, but this card being decent plus the UFC card makes this a great MMA weekend for me.

The UFC card should be better but this was a nice event. I hope they stick Saku in legends matches only. It almost hurts a card when a legend is fed to someone like that. I want real fights not squash matches on a former star.

Agreed on all accounts. Sakuraba just can't hang with even the worst of the elite fighters. He's not there anymore. No disrespect to him, but he should really consider hanging'em up or fighting Ken Shamrock or something like that.

Good call Wolf. Aoki played it smart maintained position and atleast tried to do some gnp. This is one of those cases were I was glad to be wrong.
