After losing to Lindsey VanZandt at Bellator 222, Rena Kubota is going to get a rematch on her home soil. Rizin officials today announced that VanZandt and Kubota will meet at Rizin FF 20, which takes place Dec. 31 at Saitama Super Arena in Japan. Kubota traveled to New York for this past June’s Bellator 222 event, where she received an unpleasant welcome, and submitted to a VanZandt rear-naked choke in the first round. Kubota bounced back in scintillating fashion, needing just 20 seconds to score a TKO win over Alexandra Alvare at this past October’s Rizin FF 19.
