I wonder who Jacare will be fighting, he’s a great fighter, I hope he gets a decent opponent. I wonder who Minowa will be fighting as well.

UFC should really scoop up DREAM’s graphic arts department.

Yeah bro!!!!! The UFC should def. try some cheesy background gradient, text cocked at angels to make it illegible…god knows whos fighting on that card. But hey, the UFC should take notes so it can be a graphic design juggernaut like Dream.

Hahaha, that’s true. Most of the UFC posters are not all that high level. Their artists aren’t bad but they (or he) create very generic posters. The Dream posters aren’t complex, but they’re pretty good.

Jacre is NOT in the tournament.

i can’t say i love their posters, but they are a very nice change of pace. i think it’s a decent concept, however there is just waaay too much text on this to make it really nice for me. obviously they need to have both languages on there which clutters it up, but do they really have to have all that information? keep it simple, clean, and prompt the viewer to the website where they can get all the rest of the info, it’ll look killer without so much on it.
2 picky cents from a graphics pro.
