Olympia Dream 9 and the Super Hulk Tournament is tonight or tomorrow whichever way you want to look at it, 5am EST live from Japan on HDNET. Man have I said how much I love that HDNET exists?

Tatsuya Kawajiri vs Jz Cavalcante

JZ will likely be able to T off on Kawajiri eventually taking the decision. This is one of the best fights on the card.

Jason Miller vs Ronaldo Souza

Best fight of the night. I love watching Mayhem fight, but I think he will have his hands full with Jacare. This is a rematch from last year for these two where Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza took the decision. I think its likely it will go that way again.

Joe Warren vs Norifumi “Kid Dynamite” Yamamoto

Honestly the odds heavily favor Yamamoto here which makes this one of the best dog bets. Warren is NO SLOUCH. He handled Chase Bebe a former WEC champion. Bebe a solid wrestler who basically had a classic Matt Hughes style just wore people out with top control and TKO elbows. Well Joe Warren, an accomplished wrestler himself, really won in impressive fashion. Yes Bebe lost from a cut, but Warren was wining that fight.

Nobody out there believes that he could win this fight, but from what I’ve seen he has the potential to and with the odds structure I think its worthwhile and therefore I’m picking Joe Warren – yeh you heard it here first.

Abel Cullum vs Hideo Tokoro

Cullum looked good in his last fight. I like Abel to win.

Ikuhisa Minowa vs Bob Sapp

On Inside MMA, Bas said, Minowa by ankle lock. I definitely could see that scenario as well.

Jan Nortje vs Rameau Sokoudjou

Nortje will be a punching bag for Sokoudjou.

Mark Hunt vs Gegard Mousasi

Very interesting matchup which could possibly be a Mousasi hype ender. However, I’ll curb my enthusiasm to pick Hunt here and go with Mousasi.

Jose Canseco vs Hong Man Choi

I gotta go with Choi.
