Not a bad looking card. It could be better.

Damm vs. Masvidal is a hot ass fight. I wonder how Rodrigo feels about his sister juicing?

[Shiruba]

Not a bad looking card. It could be better.
Yeah, it isn't as bad as it looks like. Just some strange match-ups, like Misaki-Clark. It isn't a mismatch, because Clark is good, but there's just a couple of out of nowhere names on the card.

[Shiruba]

Damm vs. Masvidal is a hot ass fight.
Yeah, maybe they should have waited with this fight until the GP at the next SENGOKU. It looks like SENGOKU are bringing in guys from Strikeforce lately (santiago, masvidal), maybe they'll surprise us with Melendez in the future.

Mo Smith by stoppage via low kicks.

Carina juices heavy but her bro doesn't? Not that it would matter on this show but...

[SVED]

anyone w/ a preview article on this card???

have been looking all over for 1

haven't found anything competent yet....

something tells me that Masvidal==Damm will be a really great ground war

[aubtin]

Other than Damm vs Masvidal there really isn't a fight I'm interested in. I've never seen Chris Rice fight and he's on the back of some wins but I think it's a mismatch on the ground.

I can't really make sense of Sengoku's matchmaking, it's like a weird mix a of a MARS/Pancrase card were most of the matches don't make any sense. I'm excited about Damn vs Masvidal but that's about it.

They need to sign Ohara ASAP.

Is that Chris Rice from England?

If its the guy I think it is, I've seen him a few times.

He's a competent fighter.

Weird match-up though. Much like the rest of the show really.

He picked up a win on the last Cage Rage. As I say I've never seen him fight but heard he's decent.

So he was!

He's not much of a finisher though.

Tall, quite a tidy striker on his feet.

[tragicmatsu]

i'm personally looking forward to misaki vs "the pink pounder"

honestly though, damm vs masvidal is a great matchup but choi vs pe de pano is a pretty unspectacular fight waiting to happen.
