Great fight for Zelg. He's fighting a striker on a show that should have high ratings. Mayhem Miller/Jacare III might be on the same card. http://tatame.com.br/2009/06/24/Nakahara-luta-Kyokushin-de-olho-no-MMA

He's a killer Karate striker with good take down defense. He lost to Sakuraba in the first round of the gp but looked good considering it was his first fight. In his last 2 fights he smoked Dong Yoon Sil and Shungo Oyama. This fight is a strikers dream. They were suposed to fight Dream 9 but Zelg hurt his leg in a TKD tournament in Zagreb a month before.It looks like the promoters want this one.
Nakahara is born in Brazil but has Japanese blood. He's quite Machidalike minus the bjj black belt.

Moneuf is fighting Filho at Dream 10. My geuss is that the winner of the Zelg/Nakahara fight could fight the winner of the Maneuf/Filho fight for the next title shot vs Mayhem Miller or Jacare. It looks like they really want to sort out the MW division.
