Remember

Remember when he was the most sought after prospect, and the UFC set him up with Extreme Couture to train? I don’t know if this is a large promotion or not, but I’m sure he’s not getting the money he would have gotten over in the UFC

In the last installment of our epic blab fest, Kid Nate and Luke Thomas discuss the Mayweather method of hyping fights, the influence of pro wrestling on Muhammad Ali, the tension between MMA and amateur wrestling, the tension between the UFC's spectacle-driven PPV model and the way they "book fights like they're the NCAA," and poor, sad Satoshi Ishii. Pore over the insight at MMA Nation.

Satoshi Ishii (top) earned a technical submission win over Katsuyori Shibata in their MMA contest at the K-1 World MAX 2010 Final in Tokyo on Monday. Ishii scored an early takedown, flattened Shibata out, and wrenched a kimura from knee-on-belly position which forced referee Yuji Shimada to call a halt to the bout at 3:30 of the first round. Ishii improved to 3-1 with three straight wins since dropping his debut to Hidehiko Yoshida last New Year's Eve. Photo by Sportsnavi.

Olympic judo gold medalist Satoshi Ishii (2-1) will take on last-minute replacement Katsuyori Shibata (4-9-1) in an MMA rules bout at Monday's 2010 K-1 World MAX Final in Tokyo. Shibata -- a pro wrestling convert and pupil of Kazushi Sakuraba -- was announced by Fighting and Entertainment Group on Sunday afternoon after Ishii's original opponent, kickboxer Antz Nansen, failed his pre-fight medicals due to a pre-existing injury.
