i didn't see the show due to there being a lack of a decent stream anywhere to watch, couple of surprising not so surprising results on the show, the biggest being Palhares getting KO'd in under a minute, i imagine we'll see Emil Webber Meek show up in the UFC or Bellator pretty soon, oh and Mayhem got choked out.

RIZIN MMA returns this Sunday. There's very little fanfare or buzz around it but im still hoping the promotion does well. They still have a big New Years Eve show planned so im all for that.

 

The show involves the opening round of the promotion's Open Weight Grand Prix.

The Tournament is just full of random Japanese matchmaking, weirdly Crocop sits in there and that's enough to get my interest peaked.

 

Wanderlei Silva is also in the tournament but gets a bye into round 2, as does a 'mystery fighter', brilliant. Round 2 and the finals happen on the New Years shows.

 

here's the lineup:

Gracie/Tokoro im interested to see, tough out for a 3rd fight. The actual tournament should be interested based on the weirdness of it all, an ancient Kazayuki Fujita fights a 350lb sumo wrestler, just barmy Japanese matchmaking.

 

Darren Cruickshank fights Andy Souwer too who's long been one of the best kickboxers in the world.

 

There's no TV deal in place in America from what  i can gather so i might have to go old school with the Japanese commentary for this one.

the Krazy Horse thing was crazy, that guy is out of freakin' mind. I'd actually look forward to a Wanderlei/Krazy Horse fight.

 

No spoilers but WSOF held an event last night, Justin Gaethje main evented so it'll be worth your time. I'll be checking it out tomorrow.

The Justin Gaethje fight was called off at the last minute after his opponent felt unwell. Branch/Vinny MagalhĂŁes main evented instead.

Love watching Gaethje and Moraes. Fitch vs Shields is going to put Nytol out of business though.

 

Edit - fucking hell, a card with Fitch vs Shields and they put Jared Rosholt on the undercard as well! Heathens.

 

And I honest to God forgot that Yushin Okami existed.
