DREAM Plans for 2009

DREAM have announced the plans for a featherweight and welterweight tournaments in 2009. This means that the featherweight marked in Japan will be vacuumed for talent, as both Sengoku and DREAM put on their tournaments.

For the welterweight tournament, Aoki has already put his hand up. Alvarez and JZ could also potentially move up, I think. Of course, "Mach" Sakurai will get a spot if the recent controversy surrounding his has not been too much for FEG.

DREAM is planning the same number of events in 2009, which means 6, the first to be held in early March.

It should be another good year for Japanese fans!
