IMO, this card rocks!!! Maybe not the most glamourous, but full of credible & legitimate fighters. War Melendez!!!

Hella funny but not my point, and you know that. It sucks compared to last Bushido cards because, well, look at past Bushido cards. Big fights, and more importantly - something for everyone. This one really doesn't have anything for me and it's not hard to tickle my MMA fancy.

please explain what was so much better about the last Bushido card? And you must remember there are still 3 good fighters that have yet to have their opponents name. You are the only person I have seen on any forum that doesn't like this card. Besides the typical UFC Nuthuggers, which I don't think you are.

Maybe they'll crank it up by having Mirko wear a "Antonio Anoki eats cooked fish" t-shirt which can spark a war of words which will lead Antonio out of retirement and guys will drone on and on about how he "has a chance" right up to the moment he gets his old ass handed to him in a UFCish geezer bashing extraviganza... naw, this card looks good as it is.

Personally I couldn't give as rats ass about this card either. I'm not saying that it's bad, but there are no fights at the moment that makes me want to rush out & buy it (if I could!).
Henderson against Misaki? Didn't they just fight at B10?
Henderson Vs Kang & yes now you got me interested.
Also is anyone seriously going to tell me that they know who Aoki is (do I hear the sound of people checking out Sherdogs fight finder?!?!?)?
I'm not a "UFC nuthugger" in the slightest, but I can see past the fact that not everyone here has heard of half of these fighters & so would probably not get too excited about this round of B11.

Aoki is considered one of the best ground fighters in japan in his weight class, and has excellent BJJ. He's the current Shooto Middleweight Champ. He's a solid up and comer and will give Jason Black a real test.
Melendez/Obiya should also be a good match up. 2 young LW champs from 2 smaller orgs. Both come in undefeated. Melendez wins are a little more impressive, but Obiya is no slouch. Obiya trains with Gomi also, so he has that going for him.
I see your point about Hendo and Misaki 2. I don't care to see a rematch this soon, but the 1st fight wasn't that bad. I don't think it deserved an immediate rematch.
Hendo vs Kang would be nice, but I really like the potential of Kang vs Suloev.
I know you aren't a "UFC Nuthugger" Alvin. I was never implying Boone was either, he's a true MMA fan that supports all organizations, as do most of us. Now that they have added Minowa vs Butterbean to the card you guys have a reason to complain though. heh
