I think given the colossal nature of the K'Festa card and them sharing a platform and a sugar daddy the big ticket fights probably won't clash

I think given the colossal nature of the K'Festa card and them sharing a platform and a sugar daddy the big ticket fights probably won't clash Seems like Abema is priming audiences with the idea of phasing out K-1 for Rise. K-1 no longer has a monopoly on the platform and they're now playing games with keywords on the platform so that when you search for "Takeru", Tenshin comes up as a recommendation but the reverse doesn't happen for Tenshin Who knows what K-1 Japan is up to, but it's a war to the death. |

If the intention is really to put the squeeze on K-1, they picked a great tournament to do it with and the worst possible time to try with Tenshin's personal star. Whatever fuckery is up, glad they're both being streamed.

There's some Super Punch-Out ass knockdowns on that card.
By the way, as of Krush 100 Krush events seem to be titled "K-1 Krush Fight". I hope they've got the rights to use the K-1 name under a long contract, because exposing the part of your business that you completely own to the insane whims of Mike Kim seems maybe not a great idea.

17 bucks for a RISE card seems a bit steep, but I gotta put my money where my mouth is. If nothing else it makes multi-screening without killing the VPN a bit easier.

Has Floyd learned to read enough to start telling bedtime stories or has Sakakibara transcended the limits of promotional malpractice?

Perhaps this time is under kickboxing rules?

Actually watching video of him talking about it he seems like he's just gleefully fucking around. It's so bizarre, I wonder if he's doing it for fun or if the Floyd fight was some ongoing plan by Rizin to get more coverage in English media?

Aside from the card having a great title, the google translate versions of the nicknames are incredible
"Professional Cyst" Kenta vs "Full Bullet Full Swing" Bancho Samurai "Angry Suicide Onii-chan" Kazumasa Takahashi vs "Shock Kicker" Yota heavy forest
edit: But no online broadcast  |

edit: But no online broadcast How dare you glance over Hokuto Kenshiro (you get 1 guess for who that is in the poster), a fighter so deadly they had to glove him to prevent a massacre Oh yeah, Takeru just called out Tenshin for a showdown in the Tokyo Dome EDIT: They are speeding towards each other with all the inexorable speed of two glaciers |
