The Japan card is not a PPV lol. The week after they are doing a PPV in Toronto.
If this is a Fight Pass card id question whether they would do Hunt vs Roy and an Overeem fight. I could see a Gomi fight and a Mizugaki fight against a top contender. I mean they hyped up the Ireland card like it was huge and look what they got.
Dana said it was a ppv but who knows. The reason there couldnt be room for Overeem is because they might want him elsewhere.
I remember reading various media and it seems a lock that we got Hunt vs Nelson, Akiyama returning, Gomi probably fighting someone relevant, another fight with whomever and probably a title fight. So it could just be theres no room for Overeem on the main card
I feel Overeem vs Barnett, they would draw big time in Japan
After he beats? Dont count your eggs yet buddy, theres a real good chance and I will bet money on it Fabio takes the win.
I could of sworn Dana said when asked if it was a ppv
I watch all the scrums and definitely would have remembered that if he said it. I dont even remember anyone asking about the Japan card.
