Oh, and thanks for telling me what i've forgotten. It's not like I know that, but also accept that fact That Saku's getting a little old, and was always injured even in his prime. Perhaps those tournaments contributed to his ill knee-health, and his feelings on the tourney format. Seems his 'mistranslated' comments jive nicely with his history, so maybe take a look at the full picture before making statements about what I know, and how well informed I am. what's your inside source? how did you get to know everything? or are you just a contary dick, who likes to point out that he thinks he's smarter than everyone?

I mean, shit, I take everything I read on the blogosphere with a grain of salt, but I don't see this kind of info many other places, and I take press releases from any company with a full blown salt lick, due to their need to promote their brand, and cover their asses.

But you're telling me I should start to suspect the translations in these blogs, with no original japanese text, and no ability with the language past counting to ten? getting right down to the nitty-gritty, eh? you're starting to sound like a paranoid nut case. Except, you're suspicious of the critics, who have little to gain by putting out unfounded opinions and their credibility to lose. That's opposed to being suspicious of the promotional company, which has everything to gain by bullshitting to gain exposure, a company that negates any losses in credibilty from being sull of it byt blaming the fighter.

"For your "DREAM calling Trigg a liar" you are taking the translation from a guy who barely understands English."

Where does English come into it? Either it was a translation, and the guy's understanding of the language means DFA, or he said it in broken english. If the latter is the case, I don't care what your native language is, or your understanding, calling someone a "coward, chicken and a lier" is pretty simple. Hard to screw up that translation. Those are serious words to call someone, no matter where you're from, or what you speak. So, gimme some reason to believe some vindictive bloggers purposely mistranslated his statement, and another reason to believe that every blogger didn't take the opportunity to call bullshit on that mistranslation.

Maybe there's a reason there's only one individual defending DREAM like this....being publicly contrary, suspicious and a know-it-all is only acceptable when you support your statements with something other than 'don't believe them, cause I say they might be wrong!' Why not prove they're wrong?

I take everything I read with a bit of doubt, but I don't air it unless I have some kind of proof. Something outside of MY opinion to back it up. You should try it sometime. You might not look like such a douche. (which you do)
