During a press conference in Japan on Friday, the DREAM promotion announced it’s first major event of 2011. The promotion is targeting May 29 as the date for a bantamweight tournament which will be held at the Saitama Super Arena. Production of the event will be kept to a minimum, so as to not waste electricity to reflect the ongoing crisis in Japan.

The event, named “DREAM Japan GP 2011 Bantamweight Japan Tournament” or “Fight for Japan DREAM Grand Prix” depending on who is translating it seems, will feature a 61 KG tournament with fighters Hideo Tokoro, Masakazu Imanari, Kenji Osawa, Darren Uyenoyama, Keisuke Fujiwara, Atsushi Yamamoto, Takafumi Otsuka, and Yoshiro Maeda.

Other non-tournament participants at the event may include Shinya Aoki, Joachim Hansen, Caol Uno, Mitsuhiro Ishida, Akiyo “Wicky” Nishiura, and Katsunori Kikuno.

The May 28 date will host the quarterfinal and semifinal rounds of the Bantamweight Tournament, while a second event in July will host the finals and third place bouts. The finalists, and the fighter who takes third place will move on to compete in an upcoming DREAM World Bantamweight Tournament. That tournament is scheduled to take place in September.

Officials also announced the “Fight For Japan” charity project to raise funds for those areas suffering from the after effects of the 9.0 earthquake, and subsequent tsunami.

Hey Dent, I was wondering since HDnet sadly doesn't Broadcast this Dream event anymore for whatever reason :(

what will the Torrent look like?? Will it be a copy from the Japanese Broadcast then?

And will we have English commentary still?

Also, will it take longer to be updated on this side?

Thanks a lot guys!

Its basicly impossible to say on beforehand bro, Im sorry. We can just hope that someone with access does the general mma community a favour and cap/record it if its not broadcasted on any other network. What format, size, codec etc we can expect is up to the releaser and nothing I can really speculate on. If its only broadcasted on a Japanese network the chances we will see a scenereleases are very small if not non existant. But these things have a way of finding their way so be patient and hope for the best. If you know anybody with access tell them to record it and share it please! I would if I could.


Edit: It's possible that HDNet will air it with a weeks delay or so, they usually do that with these events.

The revolving door leading to Shinya Aoki has apparently spun yet again.

Just hours after MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) learned that Shane Nelson had agreed to face Shinya Aoki (27-5 MMA, 11-2 DREAM) at DREAM.17, DREAM rep Mike Kogan announced via Twitter that Rich Clementi (40-19-1 MMA, 0-0 DREAM) will instead take on "Tobikan Judan."

Kogan said that verbal agreements are in place and contracts for the contest are expected to be finalized shortly.

DREAM.17 takes place May 29 at Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan, and serves as a fundraiser following earthquakes and a tsunami that recently ravaged the country. HDNet is expected to air the show in North America.

Kogan could not immediately explain why Clementi was chosen for the matchup over Nelson, though a source close to the event indicated Aoki may have vetoed the opponent.

Clementi is the fifth opponent chosen to face Aoki at the event. Willamy Freire, Jamie Varner and Antonio McKee have also been involved in various stages of negotiations for the bout.

Clementi fights in Japan for the first time since 2004, when he went 3-1-1 during a five-fight stint for ZST. "No Love" has garnered mixed results as of late, alternating wins and losses during a 7-5 run since his 2009 release from the UFC.

American fans will get a chance to see DREAM's first live effort since the devastating earthquake in Japan.

HDNet CEO Andrew Simon today told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) that "DREAM.17: Fight for Japan," which takes place Sunday at Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan, is set to broadcast on HDNet via tape delay.

The event airs next Friday, June 3, at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.

HDNet has long been the stateside broadcast partner of the Japanese promotion, though its broadcast plans for DREAM.17 had remained unknown until now.

DREAM.17, which serves as a fundraiser to benefit victims of the earthquake and tsunami, hosts the first round of the 2011 Japan Cup Bantamweight tournament.

Additionally, a bout between DREAM lightweight champion Shinya Aoki and Rich Clementi is featured, though it's unclear whether Aoki's title is on the line.

The full DREAM.17 card includes:
Uyenoyama/Yamamoto winner vs. Maeda/Tokoro winner (Japan bantamweight-tourney semifinal)
Fujiwara/Imanari winner vs. Osawa/Otsuka winner (Japan bantamweight-tourney semifinal)
Shinya Aoki vs. Rich Clementi
Katsunori Kikuno vs. Daisuke Nakamura
Akiyo "Wicky" Nishiura vs. Caol Uno
Takeshi Inoue vs. Koichiro Matsumoto
Joachim Hansen vs. Mitsuhiro Ishida
Kenji Osawa vs. Takafumi Otsuka (Japan bantamweight-tourney first round)
Keisuke Fujiwara vs. Masakazu Imanari (Japan bantamweight-tourney first round)
Yoshiro Maeda vs. Hideo Tokoro (Japan bantamweight-tourney first round)
Yusaku Nakamura vs. Atsushi Yamamoto (Japan bantamweight-tourney first round)
