    I don't suppose you'll mind if I drop in the names of Hinata Maruta and Keisuke Matsumoto as well.

    Seen you've guys have done some divisional features, any chance of a new prospect feature? The new year one was great but feels out dated a bit given that Tanaka's now fighting for a title and Maligro got beat (though I think he'll come back from that defeat with no issue)

    Really tempted to do a "Best prospects with 5 or fewer fights" though if you, or anyone else, has a better idea feel free to toss it out there and we'll consider it for next week.
