Thompson/Hornbuckle is solid matchmaking.

Which reminds me: any word on Gono? Did he ever wake up?

Yeah, he was alright the next day thankfully. Just checked his blog, looks like he injured his left foot training last week.

That's good. I like Gono and that was a nasty KO.

How did you come to follow Japanese MMA so closely? You’re even familiar with the minor events and know the more obscure fighters – do you live in Japan or something?

Looking forward to seeing how Nansen does...

Three-time Muay Thai world champion, and Izumi says he’ll try to stand.

Oh boy. I think im going to change my mmaplayground pick for that one.

Yeah, I don’t know. I think it’s a bullshit statement. I would almost bet Izumi shoots as soon as possible.

Yeah but after this week im sick of picking the guy with the better grappling to win. Every fight where i thought the guy should take his opponent down, he instead stood with him and lost. It has not been a good week for me and my picks.
