Cole Escovedo landed a huge headkick and then flew like superman to KO Yoshiro Maeda. Somehow, one of the most spectacular diving punches I’ve ever seen didn’t make it to the HDNet telecast. This is from Monday’s Dream 13 at Yokohama Arena.

I like the veins near her left wrist. And of course, the full mount is such a spectacularly dominant position.
Michihiro Omigawa. Victories over Takaya, Hioki, Sandro, Nam Pham, LC Davis in 2009. Some of them were controversial but that was a pretty amazing year. Showed so much heart in the Kanehara fight, it’s impossible for me not to be a fan.
I love black and white fight photos. This is Hiroyuki “Streetfight Bancho” Takaya after TKOing Yoshiro Maeda at Dream 9. One of my favorite photos I’ve shot.
Welcome to my new blog.
Folks, Daniel Herbertson now has a tumblr. If you are not familiar with his work, you should make yourself familiar. He brings us some of the most beautiful photographs from the other side of the Pacific. If you need a quick refresher, you can look through these.

I gotta wonder how long that new nose of his lasts.
Also, I never noticed how pretty his eyes are. It’s rare that you get such a good look a them without them being THE LAST THING YOU SEE!!!
