Fresh from the biggest “W” of his career, “Tobikan Judan” Shinya Aoki (15-2) has been forced out of DREAM’s Lightweight Grand Prix due to a facial injury suffered during his unanimous decision victory over “JZ” Gesias Calvancante (14-2-1).
According to Sherdog, Calvancante was contacted by DREAM to replace Aoki, but couldn’t come to terms with DREAM executives.
Aoki was scheduled to fight Katsuhiko Nagata (4-2) 11 May, who defeated Artur Oumakhanov (7-3) at DREAM.1 to advance to the Grand Prix’s second round.
