Actually, as for Marcos Rua, though Ninja and Shogun claim he wants to be a DJ, Shogun said he recently won a Muay Thai tournament in Brazil so......

Shaolin - the next Rua MMA champ? Never know. Shogun also said he's the most gifted of the three

I don't care for minowa. His fights are a novelty space filler.

You nob head!!!!!!!!!!

Stu, as a fight fan, please appreciate that Minowaman has legit skills. I think it's a fucking shame Dream treat him as a novelty, cos if you watch his Pancrase and some of his Pride career, he has some slick subs, great grappling, and he is a fearless warrior

It's not cool to downplay him just cos KTT love him. I loved Minowaman before my KTT join... it was one of the reasons I did join, I thought there'd be synergies between us

Regardless, Minowa is a gutsy warrior with legit catch skillz....

Minowa has some sick catch skills and great skills overall..I wish DREAM wouldnt manage him with all these freakshow fights...its time for some legit competion now...I know he can compete

Exactly.

Here is my favourite Minowaman HL, made by yameru a.k.a toasteroven of sherdog/ktt

my opinion on him has changed regardless of the KTT.

I was a fan since around 2007 - i enjoyed the zulu fight and his wars with baroni but as of late after the super hulk tourney I think his fights aren't competitive or worth my time watching. I'd rather they have two top up and comers fighting each other than minowa vs some huge under skilled opponent. His fights are a mere side show and it's gotten old.

Like i said on sherdog I was hoping minowa would make an apperance in strikeforce at middleweight vs linland etc.

I'm just sick of seeing uncompetitive fights

Well I still love Minowaman, but both I and lane clearly agree with everything you said. Guy has legit skills, he should be given a chance to show them more instead of just freakshow fights

Hey, I don't mind things like the Super Hluk. But it would be nice to see him tested against other middleweights as well.... Minowaman vs Frank Shamrock would be a guilty pleasure; two catch wrestling Gods!!!
