Aoki now slated to face Clementi at Dream.17

source: 5thround.com

The game of musical lightweights appears to have finally come to an end for Dream. After seeing four previously rumored opponents slip through the cracks, the Japanese promotion appears to have finally located someone to stand opposite Shinya Aoki.

Mike Kogan, Dream’s representative in America, announced the bout late Tuesday night on his Twitter account. However, he reiterated the scrap has merely been agreed upon and contracts have yet to be signed.

Both 155-pounders are expected to put pen to paper shortly.

becuase aoki is fearless, he will fight anyone, on anytimes notice and 9/10 times he will win within the opening minutes. people said the same thing about Beerbohm vs aoki and we saw what happened.

He's on Team Penn and even interviewed Shane talking about the Aoki fight. Obviously, they pulled some typical Japanese shit and switched opponents for whatever reason and now Shane's getting a 2 fight deal with Dream instead.
