Jose Canseco to fight at DREAM 9 tourney

Former Major Leaguer Jose Canseco will be making his MMA debut when he fights in an open-weight tournament for the Japanese-based DREAM promotion May 26 at the Yokohama Arena in Yokohama, Japan.

The event dubbed the "Super Hulk Tournament" will feature Canseco vs. Hong Man Choi as well as UFC veteran Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou, K-1 star Bob Sapp and a middleweight title fight between Ronaldo "Jacare" Souza and Jason "Mayhem" Miller.

"Who doesn't want to see Jose Canseco take on Hong Man Choi in the U.S. in the middle of the night?" HDNet Fights CEO Andrew Simon joked with MMAjunkie.com Radio. "We have over 34 events on air this year. One thing we're committed to is bringing events live when we can."
