Gracie Replaces Cacareco

Posted On: June 13, 2008 at 2:52am

DREAM announced on Thursday that newcomer Ralek Gracie (1-0) will replace “Cacareco” Alexandre Ferreira (16-5) at 15 June’s DREAM.4 event in Yokohama.

Ferreira was scheduled to fight Alavutdin Gadzhiyev (7-1) of Russia.

Gracie was originally slated to face “Cro Cop” Mirko Filipovic (23-6-2) in a modified Abu Dhabi rules grappling match; but, the fight was cancelled when “Cro Cop” withdrew due to injury, a report that Nokaut has confirmed.

“Cacareco” was removed from the card reportedly because he was unable to obtain a visa for travel.
