Holy mother of ******* ****. 

Mirko Cro Cop and Wanderlei Silva have been announced for the tournament, both in separate fights. 

Daron Cruickshank will face Andy ******' Souwer 

Tokoro vs. Gracie, of course. 

And Yamamoto is fighting Kizaemon Saiga, not Krazy Horse as rumored. 

Color me ******* hyped.

@sreimuth Jiri clearly hurt his ankle.. he would kill Tanios otherwise.. I don't think Aliakbari stands a chance against healthy Prochazka

I don't know man ... with his length and movement I think he can keep Aliakbari off him and punch him up in the process. Aliakbari's clinch on Almeida looked pretty forced and awkward and his striking was pretty wild. I could see Jiri potentially testing Aliakbari's gas tank and meeting him at the end of it for an MMA striking class.

It's also the first decision win for Prochazka after 23 fights. Crazy.

It sucks Erson has the Yamamoto last name. Love to see him build up through competition on his level and then fight these guys.

@sreimuth, considering his first fight was against Kron (and his name is what got him in that fight), I'd say as of now his name is working both ways for him.

@Yoss- Yea, its beneficial and definitely has talent. Fighting Gracie and Saiga are two tough fights.

That was a great fight. Yamamoto looks more savage than a 20 year old with 2 fights has the right to look. Dude's a beast.

Souwer/Cruickshank boutta blow minds.
