By the way.
Last Sunday Rickson Gracie was live on brazilian national television and announced that he will fight in the second season of 2008 against Sakuraba on Japan. He was seriously talking about this and brazilian mma foruns are taking this seriously aswell.
WTF??? Buakaw won the GP the year before the rule change AND the year after the rule change!

And I´ll believe Rickson when I see it, plus this fight is no longer interesting due to Sakuraba being a totally shot fighter physically.
