Like i said JAPANESE not other asians!!! every time i see them fight in the UFC they always lose in one way or another...
is it that the Japanese promotion have a death grip on the good japanese fighter or is it that the japanese are just cursed when it comes to the UFC?
 
This is a great question:

I think the reason is that there is a huge difference between training in an Octagon and a kickboxing ring. They are so different and the Japanese fighters are not used to the cage game and don't understand the important little tricks that are used to maximize a fight in the Octagon.

Also, we are seeing the evolution of MMA as we speak. Wrestlers who can strike are dominating MMA and a lot of BJJ is being canceled out by world-class wrestling. This is the very reason why most MMA fighters who are successful in the UFC live in the USA now. The training is better.
