Who would have thought Uno still had some left in the tank, figured he was done after the Lion KO. He's beaten some solid guys too, Anthony Avila, Daniel Romero, Taiki Tsuchiya and Jesse Brock aren't pushovers.

1 more run in teh UFC? Uno vs Kawajiri II in Japan.
 
Always a fan. Hard to think that his first fight with Sato was 15 years ago.
 
They should bring him back if they have another japan card.
 
Good for him. Should be In OneFC. I counted him out too. He should really retire but I hope he keeps winning and wish him the best.
 
Wut? For some reason, I though he was retired. But good to see that he is doing good
 
At least give him one last shot in the September show. Uno has some decent following, is a beloved fighter by the UFC, and put on a nice winning streak.
 
Uno going for his third Draw in the UFC!:icon_chee
 
He said after one of his VTJ wins that his goal was to get another chance in the UFC, however he's 38 years old, so I don't think there's that much of a chance if doesn't happen soon.

I hope they do give him another chance on one of their Japan cards though.
 
Uno fights since 1996, and he is still one of the best japanese fighters. That really sucks.

Where are the new guys? Hioki, Kawajiri, Aoki, Kitaoka all fight for over 10 years now, and there isn't anybody who is even close to them.
 
I still want to know who at Zuffa thought having him against Tibau was going to be a good fight.

it has been awesome to watch his recent fights and see him getting wins!

back in the UFC would be awesome too! :) (especially for a kawajiri rematch!!!)
 
not the greatest quality for sound and video, but the finish in this one was quite nice and worth a look...

well, i should say a partial look, as the ref was blocking the camera...

Maybe, but where are guys that started fighting in 2006, 2007,2008, 2009? Those guys should now be at their peak. Majority of ufc champs made their debuts in those years.

How come nobody better than Kitaoka showed up at lw for 14 years he is fighting? :icon_conf
 
They've either been hit with bad luck or haven't been given a good chance (or both). It's hard to prove you're one of the best in the world when the only international promotion that wants to book you is "Crazy Vladimir's Night of Eastern-European Madness III", which also hurts your motivation to train hard and improve since all your training's going for naught, or when you get badly jet-lagged and don't perform near your best against your first international opponent (who's inferior to a lot of the people you've beaten before).

ISAO?

For whatever reason, most Japanese breakout fighters in recent years have mostly been at 145 lbs. and under.

How sure are you Kitaoka would lose to ISAO, even now?

Not to mention ISAO doesn't even have a glimpse of succsess Kitaoka had in his first 6 years of fighting.

The situation at 145 isn't really better. You have Kawajiri and Hioki, nobody is even close to them.
