Great news for mixed martial arts fans: Shinya Aoki has been added to next week's Dream.6 card.The official Dream.6 web site has been updated to reflect a fight between Aoki, the submission specialist, and American Todd Moore, who recently left World Extreme Cagefighting. Aoki is an exciting fighter with a unique style, and adding him to the card makes Dream.6 -- in my opinion, anyway -- a must-see event.
Moore entered the WEC with a 9-0 record, but he lost both of his fights in WEC and is now 9-2, and he's a big underdog to Aoki, who is widely considered one of the Top 10 lightweights in the world and is No. 17 on my list of the Top 25 pound-for-pound fighters in MMA.
The full Dream.6 card, which includes the semfinals and finals of the Dream Middleweight Grand Prix and a couple of good heavyweight fights, is after the jump.
