	Wanderlei Yoshida and Hidehiko Yoshida [Archive] - Puroresu Forum
		Yoshida only got into position to apply front chokes twice in the 1st round, once after a restart (which makes it easier tha in continuous action) and the other time after an excellent judo hipthrow.
		That's one of the things I think that still point out that Yoshida, despite a very good performance, is too unidimensional to be a big threat: he goes for the same upper body subs over and over again, had he transitioned to something else he might have been able to catch the brazilian out.
		In my eyes, having ascertained he could hang with Yoshida on the ground in the first round, Wanderlei could be much less conservative in the second (even if he never went for the kill or took unnecessary risks) and simply rack up the points.

	Bout Review USA : RINGSIDE
		Yoshida looked like he had had too many nights of tempura dinners, sake and brothels before this battle.
		Yoshida was an arrogant Sigfried and Royce was one angry Siberian tiger.
		I think a rematch with Yoshida needs to happen, in order to clarify Yoshida's second MMA "hustle." But I hear AC/DC echoing from Dan Henderson's corner while Murillo Ninja is "back in fl" and has proven that "Boys do indeed Cry," even after kicking some serious ass.

		Yoshida seemed uninspired in his preparation for Cro Cop after having worked hard up the food chain.
		You would think that with all that weight and judoka power under his gi, Hidehiko Yoshida would have at least forced the issue to the ground, but instead he literally did nothing.
		Yoshida's Gi seemed to only play the role of hiding that huge gut he’s been cultivating since endorsing a local working class beer in Japan.

		Yoshida will not be throwing a gold medallist winning olympic greco roman wrestler who is not wearing a gi.
		Yoshida MUST get the submission in his guard, before Rulon has a chance of passing it.
		Gardner is known for being difficult to grip (in 2000 Karelin had to re-grip or break the hold, which according to the new rules cost him a single point: that was his "defeat").

		Yoshida is stronger, his technique is just as good on the ground, atleast when it comes to NOT being submitted.
		I would put a lot of money on the fight ending up a draw with Yoshida in Royce's guard, which is where he'll spend the whole match after he tosses Royce to the ground.

		Hunt will be making his MMA debut against Olympic Judo gold medallist Hidehiko Yoshida, a daunting task to say the least considering his inexperience in the ground portion of MMA.
		Instead he will find himself in tough against Yoshida with the knowledge that he was brought along with Yoshida’s career in mind, not his.
		Anything can happen in a fight especially when someone hits as hard as Hunt, but Yoshida should be able to use his Judo to take the fight to the mat and eventually work in a gi choke to finish him early and convincingly in the first round.

		Yoshida is skilled in the world of judo and is a champion, but that doesn't mean he has the skills to compete in MMA especially with someone that is use to fighting people of varying styles and sizes who has done so most of his life.
		In order to be competive and win Yoshida would have to train with some great newaza and striking specialists; although the striking wouldn't be as important due to the special rules, even with good training the best I could see is that it goes to both rounds.

		Sakakibara apologized to both Ogawa & Yoshida for any issues that were created by the press leaks/reports.
		Although I can’t blame them for making such a choice, I think in the end it greatly reduced the media coverage at the event and just gave them a bad reputation in terms of public relations rather than replacing the coverage of their product, as was probably anticipated.
