Shinya Aoki has a reputation for having perhaps the best leg submissions in mixed martial arts, and scoring yet another win via submission at DREAM.15 against Kawajiri seems to support this point of view. Aoki rebounded from a lack luster fight against Strikeforce fighter Gilbert Melendez, and Aoki doesn’t seem to have forgotten what critics and fans said about that fight. He recently addressed a question regarding his thoughts on getting married, as he said he wanted to do after the fight, and the answer went off track(via MiddleEasy.com)



She supported me in April [at Strikeforce Nashville]. After I lost, many people blamed me, but she helped me through it all. The people who mocked me in my fight versus Melendez, I wanted to kill them all. Even in this fight, too many people said ‘Kawajiri would win!’. I felt like telling these people ‘Go to hell!’. Oh, what was the question? About my marriage…

Gotta love Aoki’s showmanship and his pants.
