Todo esto viene de justo despues de acabar el Dream 6. La verdad es que yo creia que esto acabaria en nada, y que el tiempo haria que esto se fuese olvidando, pero ha tenido que salir el presidente de FEG, Sadaharu Tanikawa a la palestra en Kampiro, para... :
I was happy to see that [Masakatsu] Funaki and [Andrews] Nakahara won because I brought them to DREAM. I was amazed to see Nakahara's performance!
It seemed to me that DREAM.6 couldn't arouse enthusiasm in the crowd. I wish Mighty Mo could participate in the event and Akiyama chose someone stronger.
Akiyama said he wanted to fight Yoshida. I think DREAM will never arrange Yoshida for him. It's obvious that Akiyama played to the crowd. I'm interested in what Aoki said. He fully understands what kind of fights DREAM wants to present. I want to watch Aoki vs Akiyama
Esto viene de que Akiyama dijo que queria luchar con Yoshida, y la respuesta posterior de Aoki....
Following his win over Masanori Tonooka at DREAM.6 on Tuesday, Yoshihiro Akiyama asked for a fight against 1992 Olympic Gold Medalist in Judo Hidehiko Yoshida.
At the post-fight conference, Akiyama, also a judoka, said he wanted the fight because he dreamed of participating in the Olympics as a child.
Yoshida is currently tied to World Victory Road's "Sengoku" promotion, but there are rumors of a co-promotion for a New Year's Eve event. Akiyama is DREAM's top ratings draw -- his fights are always the most watched of all DREAM fights -- and a fight against Yoshida would fit the criteria as an attention-grabber for a New Year's Eve card in Japan.
Another unexpected challenge was made at DREAM.6, with Akiyama on the receiving end. Lightweight submission fighter Shinya Aoki stated his interest in fighting Akiyama after his 70-second submission win over WEC veteran Todd Moore.
"I appreciate his statement," Akiyama said. "I'm very happy to be respected by Aoki. However, I'm not interested in fighting him at all."
Whether if it's against Yoshida or not, Akiyama's next fight is expected to take place on New Year's Eve.
Y Aoki decia:
Shinya Aoki, a loyal DREAM lightweight who has already fought six times this year for the promotion, is upset at Yoshihiro Akiyama for his willingness to take a fight elsewhere.
"I'm very mad," Aoki wrote on his Kamipro blog. "I'm proud to fight in DREAM. I believe in DREAM. The staff members and fighters work together to create the best MMA event."
Aoki doesn't refer to Akiyama by name, but it's obvious Aoki is referring to Akiyama, who told the crowd after his DREAM 6 win that he wants to fight World Victory Road's Hidehiko Yoshida. Also, this explains why Aoki took the mic after his own fight to challenge Akiyama.
Aoki continued: "In the last event, a fighter said he wanted to fight someone who belonged to the other event. He added that he wouldn't mind fighting in the other event. I wonder why he would say that in front of DREAM fans who love this event and want to watch exciting events in DREAM. He always only care about his own convenience.
"I won't forget what he said. I believe I can be more popular than him and bring more benefits to the event. I think I can be stronger and famous all over the world. He can go anywhere but I won't run away. I represent DREAM."
Toca esperar, y ver a que acuerdos llegan. Raro raro todo esto :-\
PD: Esto parece un culebron, eh?! jeje
