DREAM.9 has come and gone and fans are now left with memories of upsets, lopsided domination, careers getting back on track and main event disappointment.

It’s no secret I am a fan of Jason “Mayhem” Miller with his increasingly focused work ethic but he and opponent Ronaldo Souza will now have to await a rematch for the middleweight belt due to their bout being declared a “no contest” after Miller delivered an illegal, unintentional kick to the head.

Norifumi “Kid” Yamamoto was severely upset by underdog Joe Warren, and the impressive American remains undefeated while Yamamoto receives his second professional loss. Gegard Mousasi maintains momentum by taking out Mark Hunt, Bob Sapp taps and Jose Canseco proves he has no business in MMA.
