Diego Brandao signs with RIZIN, faces Satoru Kitaoka at RIZIN 11

Yet another fantastic addition to the already stellar RIZIN 11 fight card later this month, as Brazilian slugger Diego Brandão makes his promotional debut vs. Japanese legend Satoru Kitaoka.

This bout joins the Gomi vs. Guillard match-up announced earlier today.

Satoru Kitaoka vs. Diego Brandão

Being the main representative of Team Lotus, the unorthodox Satoru Kitaoka (41-16-9) has made a career out of overwhelming people with his fantastic grappling game.

He has fought all over Japan since making his debut way back in 2000, including bouts in Pancrase, DEEP, Sengoku, DREAM, and, of course, RIZIN.
