Just A Thought
So let's count how many fighters we're probably going to be missing on the DYNAMITE card.
Gina Corano is out due to stomach bug.
Antonio Silva is out due to undisclosed reasons
Gabe Ruediger is out due to being "not mentally fit"
Ray Sefo is out due to undisclosed reasons
Marvin Eastman is out due to undisclosed reasons
Choi Mu Bae is out due to undisclosed reasons
Choi Hung Man is out due to undisclosed reasons. The excuse is possibly because he's got Hatton's.
And now Bernard Ackah might be the next to be a victim of "undisclosed"
So out of this whole card, three fights have been pulled with possible fourth happening and two interesting fights have be made trite and unwatchable.
Y'know, I was prepared to be all up in FEG's face for not turning in crucial paperwork at the right time to get properly licenced. But with this many people being pulled of the card....I'm starting to think that FEG got set up all along by CSAC and they're the one pulling this crap.

K-1 World GP in Hawaii!!
Aloha Fight Fans!
K-1 will be at the Blaisdell Arena in Hawaii April 28th. While it does look like it will be the first and last US Grand Prix they will be running this year (there is a possibility for a second one), They totally make up for it by debuting the new K-1 Heavyweight belt. This will be at least at taste of what FEG will bring to the table June 2nd with it's DYNAMITE show in LA. Also expect some annoucments about that in this event.
And now the card.

K-1 HEROS at Nagoya Analysis!
A spin-off promotion of K-1, the HEROS promotion started off the New Year with some controversy. The league temporarily lost one of its great fighters to Olympic dreams while another fighter retired. What made matters worse was that one of their new middleweights was caught cheating. At K-1 Dynamite, Yoshihiro Akiyama was caught using Oil of Olay to grease his legs, making him slippery to the advances of Kazushi Sakuraba. Though Akiyama initially won the contest, the result was changed to a "No Contest" and Akiyama was suspended for six months.
Despite all these early issues, the promotion hoped that HEROS 8 would put it back on the right track.
