Tom,

You are probably right that the UFC holds greater value right now, but this is a time to come in when DREAM is building something. DREAM is airing live in the US, AND DREAM fights are available on YouTube. As such, I would say that the DREAM events reach a bigger audience.

The fact that he didnt fight for the UFC was a matter of principle. As someone who has sponsored athletes (not fighters and years ago), this is a quality a sponsor should value.

Maybe Hansen wouldn't have such a hard time finding sponsors if he accepted the lesser paying contract for the UFC. As great as he is, he would have shot up the lightweight ranks and likely be fighting for a title right now and US sponsors would be beating down his doors. Sure, he would have "felt like a slave" fighting for the UFC (or whatever he said when he turned down their contract offer) but at least he would have exposure in the US and he could have used that to pick up some extra sponsor cash.

Joachim Hansen is such a beast and his fights make me cry out of sheer appreciation for their beauty.

OK, not really, but he is a MAN. I hope he gets to fight Ishida in his reserve match and go all Caol Uno fight on his head.

In closing, SOMEONE GIVE THIS DUDE LIKE A BAJILLION DOLLARS AS A SPONSOR BECAUSE HE IS GREAT. The end.
