Not bad. Omigawa could have done some damage to Mendes if he had a little more on his punches, that was actually a decent fight. In Japan, this is a very competitive fight.

he said after his fight with miyata (or maybe it was hansen) he wanted to go and fight in the U.S again, so maybe.

No easy fights for Omigawa. Kawajiri will probably win a decision, but I will be rooting for Omigawa all the way!

Another very solid fight for NYE. Omigawa has a real tough test ahead of him with Kawajiri. Kawajiri has looked great at 145. I don't think this will be a good rebound fight for Omigawa.

I think Kawajiri will finish him.

Omigawa should come to the ring wearing boxing trunks and hypnotize Kawajiri into believing a boxing match is taking place. Or else Kawajiri will just keep taking him down at will to grind out a decision win like we've seen million times.

I thought that was always common sense. I've heard it all my life that flying to east gives you a much harder jet lag. I often fly to Japan and back to Europe and I certainly can tell the difference.

I don't think Kawa is that fast as a FW because of his bulk and his striking has huge holes.(and Crusher is not better than Mendes, hes the exact style of fighter that'll struggle in the UFC)
I really think Omigawa can pull it off. He is a much more technical standup fighter and hes fighting in a ring also.

Yeah. A large wrestler with a great top game usually does poorly in the UFC. Z
