A friend of mine just mentioned, that maybe DSE will put together a Saku/Nakamura matchup on the mere fact that if they do, one of them will go to the finals at Final Conflict 2005 and they'd have a japanese fighter in the finals.
What's your oppinions? think it will happen?

Sakakibara has already mention it is "unlikely"

Why eliminate one of them when theoretically they could both get through?
I don't want Sak x Silva though because I'm in the mood to see Silva fight someone new. Arona would be perfect because I've heard people claim he is the no.1 contender, which I don't buy.
Stick Nak up against Alistair, it would be a good test for both guys.

OH GOD NO... dammit, give me igor/wand, rogerio/wand, ANYTHING BUT THAT.
i dunno why, but when I think nak/silva, nak seems like a little bug and wand is this big slug about to steamroll over him XD

While common sense is not common..... letting Sak fight Nak makes all the sense in the world if DSE wants a Japanese fighter in the Grand Prix Finals.

Nak vs Silva makes sense from DSE's perspective. Revenge the sensei. Young blood against old threat. There's also a strong line of argument saying judokas can do well against Silva.
However if they have sense they'll use Silva to get rid of one of the BTT guys (which he can do).

Watch them do it like this:
Shogun vs. Silva
Sakuraba vs. Nakamura
Nogueira vs. Arona
Igor vs. Alistair
That'd throw some monkey wrenches, it would be like TUF all over again.
I can hear Dana White now, calling DSE and trying to explain how this is the best way to match things up.
