If you're still high off of tonights gigantic UFC show then you won't be coming down anytime soon, as Nightmare Of Battle has released the final card of the DREAM show on New Years Eve:
0. K-1 Koshien 62kg Reserve Fight: Daizo Sasaki vs. Taishi Hiratsuka

—Opening Ceremony—

1. DREAM Open-Weight: Minowaman vs. Errol Zimmerman
2. K-1 Koshien 62kg Semifinal: Ryuya Kusakabe vs. Koya Urabe
3. K-1 Koshien 62kg Semifinal: HIROYA vs. Shota Shimada
4. K-1 Middleweight 71kg (1×3 min. ext.): Yoshihiro Sato vs. Artur Kyshenko
5. DREAM Lightweight 68kg: Daisuke Nakamura vs. Hideo Tokoro
6. DREAM Welterweight 75kg: Yukio Sakaguchi vs. Andy Ologun
7. K-1 Koshien 62kg Final (1×2 min. ext.): Kusakabe/Urabe vs. HIROYA/Shimada

—Intermission—

8. DREAM Heavyweight +93.1kg: Kinniku Mantaro vs. Bob Sapp
9. DREAM Heavyweight +93.1kg: Semmy Schilt vs. Mighty Mo
10. DREAM Welterweight 80kg: Hayato “Mach” Sakurai vs. Katsuyori Shibata
11. K-1 Middleweight 70kg: Tatsuya Kawajiri vs. Takeda Kozo
12. K-1 Open-Weight (1×3 min. ext.): Badr Hari vs. Alistair Overeem

—Intermission—

13. DREAM Heavyweight +93.1kg: Mirko CroCop vs. Choi Hong Man
14. K-1 Open-Weight: Musashi vs. Gegard Mousasi
15. DREAM Heavyweight +93.1kg (3×5 / 60s int.): Jerome Le Banner vs. Mark Hunt
16. DREAM Lightweight 70kg: Shinya Aoki vs. Eddie Alvarez
17. DREAM Lightweight 70kg: Joachim Hansen vs. J.Z. Calvan
18. DREAM Middleweight 84kg: Kazushi Sakuraba vs. Kiyoshi Tamura

The last chunk of the show is where the real meat of the event is. Tune in to see Crocop try kicking a giant dude in the head, a K-1 legend derail an upstart MMA fighter because of kickboxing rules, LeBanner compete in a semi-MMA match (something he's done before), the REAL final of the DREAM Lightweight GP, a rematch from SHOOTO's past, and an absolutely historic main event: Sakuraba vs Tamura in a real fight (unlike before).

So if you liked tonights excitement it's gonna be equaled in three/four more days. Just like your annoying relatives, the quality MMA just keeps coming this holiday season.

"7. K-1 Koshien 62kg Final (1×2 min. ext.): Kusakabe/Urabe vs. HIROYA/Shimada"

SO I assume this will be a tag-team affair?
Fightlinker
Nah it means the winner of each fight will take eachother on ... its a tournament final.

I think the other thing is 1 round (10 min) + overtime (in this case three mins). But that's a logical assumption and i might be wrong, damn illogical jappers!

19 fights.. Lets hope K-1 speed this up somehow.. Remember that one Sengoku we saw that lasted almost 6 hours for 8-9 fights.
Shocbomb
Yeah Pontus the last Dreams also was crazy it was 9 fights and it lasted a little over 6 hours. This card should go atleast 8 hours ?

Oh my, I wonder how early I need to be at the arena. I hope I don't miss my train back into Tokyo!

^^Lucky

I know. I can't get over it. I keep hopping around my house, randomly spitting about info about Japan to my partnerdude.

In addition to that awesomeness, Sengoku is holding all its prefight events in my hotel! ahhh!!
Dr. Gonzo
My dream for the longest time was to see a Pride in Saitama. I still hope to do it with Dream. What's the rough estimate of flight and bookings?
allelbows
Well, Winter flights are especially expensive. My hotel is 125 a night. From LAX, flights range from 800-1800 for the times I'm going, roundtrip, depending on how early you buy your flight. My ticket is a little more pricey because I'm stopping in Taipei for a few days.
Schrute Boxe
hold on, this is tonight??
Shocbomb

Fightlinker
Yep Wednesday 1AM EST. I'll have it well posted since i'm relying on y'all to be in the chat keeping me awake :-D

allelbows, no worries. On NYE, trains run 24 hours a day. It's to accommodate all the people going to shrines to "pray" for the NY after midnight, so you'll be able to get back home no problem.
