"I thought Canada was a very nice place before the fight. Now, I changed my mind. Canada is where I don't want to visit again. Even if I am booed in the beginning, a great cheer arises when I have a great performance in the US. It seems to me that Canadian fans don't have much knowledge about MMA. Fans booed me because I was Japanese, and they didn't care if I had a good fight or not. I'm disappointed to lose the fight, but I believe I can do better next time. I regret that I couldn't win, but I'm motivated to beat a Canadian fighter in the US next time." -- Ryo Chonan on his UFC 97 experience translation by Suki photo via National Post

Ryo Chonan updated his blog last night: "I'm surprised to hear about Yoshida. His opponent, Karo Parisyan, backed out at last minute. Karo said he was in the best shape when I talked to him yesterday. I wonder what happened to him. Yoshida's mom came here to see his fight all way from Japan and he had a hard time dieting for this fight. I'm sorry for him. Charged with a role as the only fighter who represents Japan, I'm going to have a great performance tomorrow." Translation from SukiMMA
