Rizin announced some fights for their July card: Bantamweight GP Kyoji Horiguchi vs Hideo Tokoro Khalid Taha vs Keita Ishibashi Takafumi Otsuka vs Anthony Birchak Single fights King Reina vs. Lei'd Tapa Tenshin Nasukawa vs. Kizaemon Saiga Satoru Kitaoka vs. Yusuke Yachi Miyu Yamamoto vs. Cassie Robb It sucks that they've both got Horiguchi fighting outside of his weight class simply because he's too good for other 125ers and that they've immediately made Tokoro fight the best guy possible. Another 6 man GP bracket is going to take place in October, and then two fighters are gonna get slotted straight in because loving whatever (this is probably insurance in case someone they want to win loses). Semis and finals take place on the NYE shows. Brutal schedule. Saiga keeps complaining that people want to grapple with him so they made him fight the absolute best striker possible lol

Reina's domination of Gabert was especially hilarious/awesome given how blatantly they were trying to push a Gabert/Garcia fight.

rare Magic card l00k posted:Reina's domination of Gabert was especially hilarious/awesome given how blatantly they were trying to push a Gabert/Garcia fight. Reina seems cool, she keeps talking poo poo about how there are no women for her to fight in Japan and she wants to make the UFC. OTOH while she is of a healthy and attractive weight she needs to drop like 15 pounds if she's gonna make 135, and she's not all that tall so really 125 might make more sense. What limited evidence there is suggests she is a heck of a grappler though

I.N.R.I posted:how come they dont often succeed abroad? is it the quality of training? thats how it is with japanese athletes in some other sports Seems like it has to be a systemic issue with how they approach sport training for youths since Japan is bad in so many sports, but they're a top Olympic wrestling and Judo nation so I dunno what's up with their MMA guys lately.

I.N.R.I posted:how come they dont often succeed abroad? is it the quality of training? thats how it is with japanese athletes in some other sports Yeah they don't have the coaches, gyms, space, skilled training partners to compete with elite camps from the US. And if iirc they almost never cross trained. Like they wouldn't do mma sparring they would just do jiu-jitsu then they'd do a kickboxing class but not mma specific classes.

The Japanese also don't cut nearly as much weight as they need to in order to be competitive so they're already giving up a size advantage from the get go. The Koreans seem to have at least figured that part out and you see a lot less losses from them due to getting bullied.

I like to think the UFC's offer was Dana reaching into his pocket and pulling out a middle finger.

Roy Nelson's a massive dumbass who somehow managed to have a long UFC career in spite of being as lovely and annoying to work with as possible. He's going to praise Bellator to high heaven then in 6 weeks be right back to being an annoying prick and complaining that he deserves a better contract and a title shot after losing 29-28 to Kongo

He'll probably finish out that contract to get paid but you know his body isn't going to hold up so those final fights are going to be even uglier than normal.
