RIZIN chose some premium violence for Easter weekend, which is somewhat fitting seeing the name of the organization and all.
The true spectacle element here is three title fights on one card, and they’re all full of action potential. Roberto “Satoshi” de Souza (13-1) defends his lightweight title against American wrestleboxer standout Johnny Case (27-7, 1 draw). Case is not just coming off a string of boxing wins, but his last MMA bout was a loss over Tofiq Musaev.
But Case’s fight before that? A thrilling win over de Souza!! So now we have a rematch with the belt on the line and the challenger holding a win over the champion.
