Defnitely a nice kick but still i don't see how 5 minutes can't be enough....... if this was the only incident for him, i'd have no troubles with it.. this is three now.. thats 25% of his wins via staying on the ground.

so any more suggestions for my letter to DREAM? So is it pretty much soccer kicks, stomps, dream logo in the middle of the ring, 3 rounds for normal fights, 5 rounds for championships (with national anthems to honor countries), holograms, i personally want takada back, what else??

I dont know that goigi to the cage is a good idea I just feel the bgi ring has a sense of drama to it better stand up matches and less utilization of the cage as a tool.

I dont know, if any of you remeber IVC the international vale tudo championships. They used to use a ring with a net on the bottom of it and alot of fighters would pin people against the netting and pummel there opponents using the net to hold there opponent in place kind of what happens in the cage.

Where the fighter spirit how can you say you better the another men unless he iis grasping his quivering arm or busted face as you stand over him.

This suppose to be a combat sport, most greta fighters understand this and always want to put a good performance.

Ishida does not seem to care as long as he gets the W.

Once again thank you Caol Uno.
No doubt, I just respect his wrestling.

My point was really that Caol Uno is an example of the type of fighter I really admire for being able to destroy somebody like Mitsuhiro Ishida. Just read my sig if you don't believe me.

I love both fighters... they are at the top of the game (I hope Caol stays there.)

I think that if DREAM does a co-promotion w/ EliteXC a few times in Japan, they should consider changing the venue a bit and present a DREAM card in a cage. Perhaps have the center area under a covering and drop the drapes and reveal the cage, I think it will electrify the crowd and the audience. And it's something nobody's done.

This is pretty simple....

1. Add a Cage. Resetting to the middle of the ring constantly is stupid.
2. Add steroid testing.
3. Get more top fighters.
4. Add elbows to the ground.
5. Get rid of all the pro wrestling style entraces. Get in the cage and fight already.

just re-watched it probably for the 5th time, no question is was a solid nut shot but not solid enough to keep a top 3 ranked LW down for the count. We both know he was able to fight on but he chose the easy way out three times, some guys are tougher than others, i understand.
