it really makes me wish I had been training 6 months ago. I would have made the 3 hour drive and bumped up a weight class for a shot at the show. Maybe we'llget a bantamweight show in '08.

What exactly does this mean for the show? I was under the impression that there were going to be a lot of established LWs on the show who had previously fought in big orgs. O well, guess theres no chance at having Genki Sudo on the show anyways.

The word I got from a source I cannot name is that it will be 8 established LWs and 8 "unknowns".
