What the fuck, Andre Fili was supposed to be on this card!

So what do you KTT/ Still Island/ Epitaph guys think about this event?

This really isn't anything special outside of the Neo-Blood finals.

Always cool to see KEI and Eizumi. Also like to see more of AB. Hate that Sunabe barely has any competition at Junior Flyweight, although I am pretty excited for his fight with Tahara in September.

Honestly, DEEP and Shooto have been having better Rookie tournaments the last few years. I think the last really top notch Neo-Blood guy was Shores, off the top of my head, at least.
