News Inoki Bom-Ba-Ye x Ganryujima 12/28;,Rafael Lovato Jr. Return to MMA, Barnett, Manhoef, and more

[JacJeanFinger]

How is Kikuno not on this?

He's training/coaching Jan Soukup for the upcoming fight in this event and he's definitely involved in the reincarnation of ganryunima.

 

[Sweater of AV]

Not sure Melvin coming back is a great idea but looks like fun.

 

[samuelsoncast]

Japan gonna Japan.
That said, I'm shinnichi.

Feels like it is missing Jerome le Banner.

 

[TJ177]

This thing is either filled with a bunch of goofy works or if it's a shoot it must be some kind of non-contact American Gladiators thing where you knock people into a moat without punches.

Either way it will probably rule.

 

[Reb]

Can we have Lovato jr vs Reinier de Ridder in a bjj fight?

 

[IndyCovaHart]

How they hell did they afford demi lovato

 

[THC]

Didn't Manhoef just retire?

That's what I thought. I'm a big fan but he should never ever fight again.

 

[ThunderL1ps]

It's too bad this isn't a tournament.

Added: Katsuyori Shibata vs Tom Lawlor on the card.

Putting two pro wrasslers together.

It's under UWFi rules.

 

[Patrick Jane]

Only thing it is missing is a Yoshiaki Fujiwara vs. Akebono fight.

 

[ThunderL1ps]

Anyone watch this? or is watching it?

Impossible to find footage of this since it’s Japan and they hate foreigners being to watch their shows but

There is a video of the Yachi fight, only it’s filmed from the audience.



Why Yachi would do that to himself is beyond me. He looked like a fish out of water, and then got brutally KO’d, all on a show nobody was watching. Hopefully he got paid. Maybe he had to take the fight. Just bad.

Shibisai lost to Shrek and Josh Barnett (in the 20’s).

And Shrek won his match via push out. There were other matches with a push out rule.

 

[TorontoTO]

Found the Melvin bout, still looking for Lovato

What is that? A pool of dry ice? I was thinking it was water, which is even dumber. I just dont understand any of this show.

It's padded. Throwing your opponent out the ring 3 times is one of the ways to win.

Wasn’t this streamed on RIZIN Fight Pass?
