Paulo Filho Pulls Out of DREAM.12 Because of Visa Problems

Paulo_filho_mug1_mediumPromoted from the FanPosts by Kid Nate.

Paulo Filho was scheduled to face Dong Sik Yoon at DREAM.12 this sunday, but the troubled middleweight was a no show in Japan today. There still is no official announcement from DREAM, but tatame is reporting that it was because of Visa problems:

According to Japanese websites, the Brazilian was missing and Ed Soares, his manager, couldn’t be contacted. Filho’s mother, Adenilda Fragoso, said to TATAME.com that the fighter couldn’t take the visa to travel to Japan.

Tarec Saffiedine will step in to face Dong Sik Yoon instead.

So sad. And to think, it was only a short while ago that people would actually argue who was the best MW in the world, him or Anderson Silva.

This is just a trick so that the “Reward Hunter” can go to Strikeforce and fight in the best middleweight division in the world.

The Super Mega Alliance doesn’t need any tricks. This was all part of their master plan.
