DREAM 17 will see the promotion returning to the Saitama Super Arena on September 24th. The first bout has been confirmed for the card, with Caol Uno facing “Lion” Takeshi Inoue in a battle of former Shooto champs.
The show marks DREAM’s return to numbered events after the “Fight for Japan” and “Japan Grand Prix Final” and also marks the company’s shift to three five-minute rounds for non-title fights and five five-minute rounds for title bouts.
