DREAM.2 Results & Thoughts
April 29th, 2008
Last night, while most of us were sleeping, DREAM.2 was going on over in Japan. The biggest and perhaps only really meaningful fight that occurred was Shinya Aoki vs. ‘JZ’ Calvacante. The rest of the fights were round-one bouts for DREAM’s Middleweight Grand Prix. Notable fighters participating included Japanese MMA legend Kazushi Sakuraba, top ten middleweight Denis Kang, and BJJ phenom Ronaldo ‘Jacare’ Souza.
DREAM.2 results have been updated in our fight cards archive and results section.
Quick results and thoughts after the jump.

DREAM.2 Middleweight Grand Prix Preview; TBS Deal Not Lost
April 28th, 2008
DREAM.2 is hours away from getting underway in Japan. The event is scheduled to start at 4PM JST, which converts to 2AM EST. The event will be broadcasted on PPV in Japan and on tape delay on the Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS) and HDNet in North America. For you lucky ones that actually have it, the event will air Saturday night, May 3rd on HDNet. A replay of DREAM.1 will air Friday night, May 2, on HDNet. For the unfortunate ones, myself included, with shitty cable companies that don’t carry HDNet and the impatient (I fall into this category as well), the fights will most likely be popping all over the internet after the event. Here’s the preview:
