I shouldnt of said bad but they are significatly lower, they make them just good enough so people will watch.

And about the UFC pay, Dana keeps on saying the UFC is the best org in the world, if so they should pay everyone alot more then what they do for being the best orb in the world.

I've strictly followed the careers of every last one of these fighters. Either way Dream has the aura, the rules, the presence.

For Heaven's sake, can we ever just have an appreciation for more than one org withouth having to take sides on which we like the most?

I was going to put in "amazing fighters" but I thought it was so obvious I could leave it out. Potential lineup for the LWGP finals: Aoki, Uno, Alvarez and Kawajiri. Also consider fighters like Hansen, Ishida and JZ who were in the GP but got knocked out.

Their other divisions are thin at the moment, but give them a couple of years. There's still potential fights such as:

Mirko vs LeBanner,
Mirko vs Fedor II,
Mark Hunt vs ???
A. Emelianenko vs ???

This is for this year alone.

So does everyone else Dream included. Dream over all is doing a good job but in 3 events they have proved themselves just as guilty as UFC Elite HDNET Strikeforce and everyone else of having fighters that dont deserve to be there Dae Won Kim,Katsuyori Shibata,Bu Kyung Jung,Taiei Kin,Shungo Oyama,Ian Murphy,Andrews Nakahara, Bum Chan Kang,Hidetaka Monma,Kazuyuki Miyata, Bu Kyung Jung,Tatsuya Mizuno,Kultar "Black Mamba" Gill have all fought for Dream and most of them have losing records. most of them are unheard of and most people dont care about. Alot of them guys i would have rather of seen a TUFer fight than them. But thats besided the point. The point is every org needs filler if you put all of your best fighters on on card you wouldnt have much for your next card. and sometimes i think these nobodys or TUFers put on some good fights hell i think one of the best fights of the year was Paul Kelly vs Paul Taylor from UFC 80 they were 2 guys that most people didnt know much about and they put on one hell of a fight.
IF you are going to hate on the UFC for using TUFers or Strikeforce and Elite for using unheard of guys then you need to hate on Dream for using the guys mentioned above.
