This isn’t about DREAM.3 but I’ll put it here anyway. This is a highlight video of Chute Boxe member Michael Costa, who is facing Nick Thompson at SENGOKU III. If you look at Costa’s MMA record on Sherdog, he is 5-2, but I think that Maicon Costa, who is 4-1, is the same person.

It will be a classic grappler vs. striker fight when Takeshi Yamazaki (pic) takes on SHOJI.

It looks like Nick Diaz might still be participating on the DREAM.3 card.

It worked for Aoki.
