What is more popular in Japan right now? K1???

I am a striker myself, so naturally, I wasn't too interested in any association that allow grappling... what other active organization are out there in Japan now?

This year there was a big crisis about all the promotions in Japan. I think K-1 as crazy as this sounds is still death right now. They still don't have a money donor who wants to keep it going. But I am not really updated on the latest there.

MMA however and espcially DREAM, which is the biggest MMA promotion right now will hold new event very soon. I think it was June, late June.

Another promotion in Sengoku seems to be done as well.. really rough times in the world of fighting back there.

Thats why i haven't seen any new matches coming out... that really suck, and half good organization is sucked up by White and turn it into a UFC franchise with UFC rules....
