Shinya Aoki gets "No Love"
by Adam McGuire on May 24, 2011

The revolving door of lightweight challengers for Shinya Aoki continues to spin as "No Love" Rich Clementi steps in to replace Antonio McKee at DREAM 17. McKee has withdrawn from the bout for unspecified reasons.

Aoki was initially offered a fight with "Ultimate Fighter" alum Shane Nelson, in what would have been Nelson's first fight with the promotion, but Aoki refused to sign the contract.

Aoki, the current DREAM lightweight champion, is riding a four fight win streak, and a six fight streak while fighting in Japan. Clementi is 7-5 following his release by the UFC early in 2009. The fight will take place on Sunday, May 29 in Japan.

 |  (16) Comments Giada Esposito: If Shinya Aoki gets no love twice, is that like a double negative in mathematics, so he's actually getting some love? :confused: GO HARD: war aoki. not a big clementi fan illegalpoke: Terrible fight. It's Overeem/Duffee all over again. Really, really looked forward to this when McKee was in it. Zero clue who would've won that = a great matchup.
