UPDATE: FEG Say No Loss of Contract

In a report earlier this week, we announced that FEG run promotion Dream had lost its contract with Tokyo Broadcast system to have their show broadcast on prime time. (see here http://mmatrivia.blogspot.com/2008/04/dream-loses-prime-time-slot.html for original story)

Late last night, FEG Sports U.S. representative Mike Cogan announced that this is, in fact, not the case. The deal as it stands with TBS calls for 4 prime time shows for Dream, and 4 shows for their other promotion, K-1.

The confusion comes as Dream plan to hold 7 events, meaning that some will be broadcast on prime time, and others on PPV and tape delay. It is believed that the other tournament matches will be shown on TBS, and non tournament cards on PPV.
