I went to mfight.co.kr and translated the team names and tried to get the correct names of both the Japanese and Korean fighters. I know the Korean is correct but I'm not so sure about the Japanese and I couldn't make any sense of Japanese Dojo names.

CMA Festival is at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan on July 23rd.


Ikuhisa Minowa (Freelance) vs. Min-seok Hur (Dong Cheon Baek San Moo Sool)
Kousei Kubota (Sakaguchi Dojo) vs. Doo-won Seo (KTT)
Yu Tsumiki (CMA Center Japan) vs. Seo-hee Ham (Jung Shim Kwan)
Takayo Hashi vs. Hee-jin Lee (Kwanak JJ Acadamy)
Matake Kazue vs. Young-joo Lee (CMA Korea)
Naoki Matsushita (MB3Z) vs. Dong-hyun Kim (Jung Shim Kwan)
Jyunpei Hamada vs. Yang-dong Lee (Korea Top Team)
Tsuyoshi Onda Toku vs. Ji-hoon Kim (Korea Top Team)
Ken Hamamura (CMA Kyoto Seikeikan) vs. Dong-ho Han (Jung Shim Kwan)
Yoshiyume Chodo (CMA Ikusa Gym) vs. Yoon Hur (Dong Cheon Baek San Moo Sool)

Good luck to all the fighters,but especially the Korean ones.

I couldn't find Seo Hee's opponent on fight finder.Maybe she's making her debut?

what is CMA Korea? is it just a management team,kind of like Golden Glory and Red Devil?

that Dong-hyun Kim sounds like he's gonna be freaking good

Spirit should be getting an english page soon which will help a bunch

Awesome thread! I hardly never post on here because all people do is bitch and complain. This thread is actually worth posting.

bruceleroy, do you know of any place to train in Busan? Hopefully, a place that can cater to foregners. My Korean is pretty mediocre. I currently go to Daegu MMA but I hate having to take the KTX everytime I go there. It's like an hour away to Dongdaegu station.

Where and what time is Spirit MC happening? The same for CMA Festival 2.

I hope Spirit MC's English page will be more informative than PRIDE's was. It was barely even worth the time to look up. I'd usually just go struggle through the Japanese site.
