DREAM Bantamweight Semifinals Set for 'Genki Desu Ka!!'
To close out DREAM's World Bantamweight Grand Prix, Bibiano Fernandes will face Antonio Banuelos, while Masakazu Imanari will fight Rodolfo Marques on the Dec. 31 "Genki Desu Ka!!" (How are you?) card in Saitama, Japan. Fernandes, Baneulos, Imanari and Marques were all victorious in opening round bouts at DREAM.17 in September to advance to the semifinals. The winners of the semifinals will meet the same night on Dec. 31 to determine the Grand Prix champion.
Former DREAM Featherweight GP winner and titleholder Fernandes (9-3) is coming off a win against Takafumi Otsuka via rear-naked choke. Marques (14-1) out of Brazil's Nova Uniao advanced with a unanimous decision win over Yusup Saadulaev.
Leglock specialist Imanari (24-9-2) has been one of the most active fighters in Japanese MMA in 2011. He's 3-2 this year with wins over Abel Cullum, Kenji Osawa and Keisuke Fujiwara and loses to Hideo Tokoro and Hiroshi Nakamura. Banuelos (19-7) made his UFC debut in February in a losing effort against Miguel Torres and then bounced back with a win over Hideo Tokoro at DREAM.17.
Event promoters also announced Friday the addition of Hayato "Mach" Sakurai vs. Ryo Chonan to the card.
Sakurai (35-12-2) will be in search of his first win since knocking out Shinya Aoki back at DREAM.8 in April 2009. The former UFC title contender last competed last New Year's Eve in a loss to Jason High. He was booked to fight at DREAM.17 but bowed out due to injury. Chonan (20-12), best known for a submission win over Anderson Silva, won both his fights in 2011 fighting under the DEEP banner.
The final "Genki Desu Ka!!" card will be a mix of MMA, kickboxing and pro wrestling matches.
Current lineup:
Bibiano Fernandes vs. Rodolfo Marques
Masakazu Imanari vs. Antonio Banuelos
Winner of Fernandes-Marques vs. Winner of Imanari-Banuelos
Hayato "Mach" Sakurai vs. Ryo Chonan
Hiroyuki Takaya vs. Takeshi "Lion" Inoue
Tatsuya Kawajiri vs. Kazuyuki Miyata

Same old question. How to watch in the UK
Does anyone have any ideas how we watch events now in the UK on TV? Was ESPN but I think they have lost it since the fox thing.

Cole Miller intent on move to featherweight for next fight
Typically, when a Mixed Martial Artist discusses the probability of dipping down divisionally the decision stems from having struggled to succeed at the higher weight. However, American Top Team?s Cole Miller plans on competing at 145 pounds in his next Octagon outing despite being 3-1 in his last four including a trio of submission stoppages. [...]

TV gold: ?Angry? Sonnen walks off Canadian talk show
Sometimes it's hard to tell if Chael Sonnen is serious when he goes off certain media members. Often times it's part of the bit.
On Wednesday, during an interview on Canada's "Off the Record," Sonnen's act seemed pretty real. Towards the end of a contentious interview, Sonnen took off his microphone and bailed on the conversation.
OTR host Michael Landsberg began the discussion by asking Sonnen why he backed down from his challenge of "leaving the UFC" if lost to Anderson Silva in their eventual fight in 2012.
"You might want to take the base out of your tone, I'm not sure you know who you're talking to here, but I've never backed down from anything, so check your facts," stated Sonnen.
"What are you talking about?," asked Sonnen. "What is this, your first day on the job? You're mixing five different stories here. This is like doing amateur hour or something. What show am I on here? Is this for public radio?"
Sonnen said he couldn't back away from an offer, since the offer was never accepted by Silva. That's when his sharp tongue began slice away at Canada.
"That's not how offers work. Is that how you do business in Canada? Cause in my country, that created business, offers expire," Sonnen said. "I made him an offer, apparently it didn't work, he didn't accept it. It's not that I backed down, but apparently I need to present him with a new offer. You guys probably don't do that in socialism, but in America, in a capitalistic society, that's how things work."
Five minutes into the second take, Landsberg and Sonnen were still verbally sparring and the fighter decided to leave.
So who really snapped - Sonnen or Landsberg?
