Around SBN: Ohio State And Florida Target 2013 Receiver Recruits

1255615031

Shinya Aoki is amused by Tatsuya Kawajiri's challenge:

"I figured he would [call me out], but it made me laugh because his action was so predictable. During training, I told Caol Uno that I would borrow his words to retort if Kawajiri challenged me like that. Then, lo and behold, Kawajiri comes out dead serious. I just took it all in stride, because, come on, how did he think I would react? Kawajiri is so forthright, while I am just really devious. I think Kawajiri is a good fighter, so I can see myself fighting him; however, I do not know for sure yet. If I feel like fighting him, I will. But that’s something I decide — unfortunately, Kawajiri won’t have any say in the matter."

Aoki keeps talking about the UFC in other interviews. Maybe he wants to ride out his Dream contract with easy fights so he can go to the UFC on a win streak

Aoki will fight him. He doesn’t duck anyone but for his sake it should be early next year. He’s fought a lot this year and against really good fighters. If he beats Kawa on NYE he’s no doubt Fighter of the year in my book.

Either him or Machida, depending on how November goes.

Keep firing Assholes!

Kawajiri is a horrible stylisic matchup for Aoki.

He seems to have gotten a really fat head since becoming the champ.
