Yoshihiro Akiyama. Akiyama is reportedly no longer under contract to FEG, while fighter and promotion are rumored to not be on good terms.

A move to rival outlet Sengoku is likely, as Akiyama has expressed interest in facing fellow judoka, Hidehiko Yoshida, in what would be a huge money match. Akiyama is also believed to be in talks with the UFC, as Zuffa is said to be building their ranks for a possible Korean invasion.

どうも上の英語の記事からするとFEGとは契約が切れて、戦極かUFCとの契約を探ってる？
そうなると吉田の名前をだしたのもすでにDREAMで試合しないから言ったとも思えるが。

UFCだとDREAMみたいな扱いはしてくれんだろうから、今みたいな格下との相手は無理だろうし。
誰とでもいいんならDREAMでやってるだろうしなあ。

UFCは流石にないと思うんだがどうだろう？
