New Japanese fighting event "Ganryujima"

How the hell is Minowaman gonna win if they dom't allow submission lol.

Wow. Minowman is screwed. No way does he win this.

 

[ShutYourMouth]

Why wouldn't it? With that train of thought, you may as well remove all the Pancrase fights with their "modified" rules for striking.

This is much different. If you get pushed off the mat 3 times, what will the loss be listed as? A TKO?

 

[Crimson Glory]

Ganryujima... sounds like an Akuma finishing move.

Minowa K.O'd Sokoudjou too.

I'm really looking forward to this. It has potential.

In a way, I'm disappointed they scrapped the moat idea, would've been cool to see Rorions original vision come to life. They would've had to fight on a sponge-like-mat for it to work though

Mixed is all martial arts. Maybe they are trying to go after sumo fans?

What if there was a pit they fell into?

Like Mortal Kombat? Would watch.
