One of our favorite Japanese MMA blogs called, surprisingly enough, Japan MMA has listed the match order for tonight’s DREAM.2 event:

This is the fight order:
8. MW Tournament: Kazushi Sakuraba 23-10-1 vs. Andrews Nakahara
7. MW Tournament: Denis Kang 29-9-1 vs. 20-2-1 Gegard Mousasi
6. MW Tournament: Kiyoshi Tamura 28-14-0 vs. 38-12-1 Masakatsu Funaki
5. MW Tournament: Ronaldo Jacare vs. Ian Murphy
4. MW Tournament: Magomed Sultanakhmadov 4-1-0 vs. 7-3-0 Zelg “Benkei� Galesic
3. MW Tournament: Yoon Dong Sik 3-4-0 vs. 7-10-0 Shungo Oyama
2. MW Tournament: Ikuhisa Minowa 39-27-8 vs. 2-2-0 Taiei Kin
1. LW Tournament: Shinya Aoki 14-2-0 vs. 14-1-1 JZ Calvan

I can almost guarantee they’ll move the Aoki/JZC match to later in the card. If they’re looking for a “hot” match to get the crowd into it the Minowa-man match is a perfect fit. Match orders are frequently changed “on the fly” so we’ll see what happens.

Still keeping my fingers crossed that the technical logistics for our live coverage tonight works out. We’ll definitely have some live coverage but I’d love to be able to just do a play by play from the PPV broadcast. In any case, I’ve got more technical tricks up my sleeve than Lance Burton so we should be able to work something out…
