Mirko To Join The New Event?

Mirko Cro Cop might be joining this new MMA event. He made a blog post a little while ago at mma-id.com saying that he is off to Tokyo. I’m not 100% sure that the site can be trusted, but mirko-crocop.com links to it. There is also talk about him joining the new event on a couple of other sites, here and here (down right now). Don’t be to sure about this, we’ll see what happens tomorrow.

  1. please more information if you have it. your site is the best for news.

  2. hi. Awesome site. Can you please explain the difference between Sengoku and Dream? Thanks.

  3. They’re two completely separate orgs. Although, I believe Takada, and former DSE work for both.

  4. Yeah, they’re different, like the UFC and EliteXC. Some of the Pride production team might work for both (not sure), but not Takada and other Pride people who weren’t in the production team.

  5. Did they say anything about rules? THanks a lot btw.

  6. I haven’t read anything about them talking about the rules yet.

  7. Thank you so much, your site breaks the news perfectly.
    Great to hear, that in ENGLAND I will have MMA to watch in JAPAN once again, cannot wait for PRIDE-TO REBIRTH….

  9. pride was great. I missed the fighter lineup. Pride made their fighters and treated them like stars.

  10. [...] Luiz Azeredo * Artur Oumakhanov * Koutetsu Boku * Jung Bu-Kyung * Kazuyuki Miyata * Luiz Firmino It Will Never Die!! HEIWA DREAM.1 Lightweight GP Opener! « Nightmare Of Battle So with two spots left, I’d guess we see fighters along the lines of Alexandre Franca Nogeuira or [...]

  11. Where’s Shaolin?

  12. It’d be far more sensible for people if we’d start referring to mma show brands (Pride, Elite Xc, UFC, Art of War) as shows, and not organizations. Organizations, such as Pro Elite and FEG, promote mma shows. They are the organizations of which you all speak.

  13. Where can I watch dream???

  14. how can i watch dream 1?
