This is unfortunate, as it was one of the only compelling fights on this card. Now I don't know what M-1 will do. But at least they still have Fedor against The Giant Man...

I was really looking forward to this fight....
but at least we still get to see Kawajiri, Melendez, Ishida, Sakurai, Akiyama, and Azeredo....also are Aleks and Arona and Roman all officially on this card, and if so...why havent there been any opponents named....

Yah this card does feel a little unfinished. Hopefully they square it away it's getting into crunch time here.

I want to believe that that fight was ever going to happen.
However, with the promoters involved, I sadly digress from that thought.
