Yokohama’s Pia Arena plays host to the first of two back-to-back events as Japanese promotion Rizin FF makes its return to action following the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic. Taglined “Starting Over,” the show boasts a nine-fight card, featuring seven MMA bouts. The main event features a 157-pound battle between Brazilian fan-favorite Roberto de Souza who is looking to bounce back to winning ways following his elimination from the promotion’s lightweight grand prix at Rizin FF 19 last October. He’ll face Yusuke Yachi , who snapped a three-fight losing run in Rizin FF when he defeated Hiroto Uesako at Bellator 237 last December.

Japanese promotion RIZIN FF is returning to action in August with a double-header in Yokohama and a pair of title fights already booked. RIZIN FF 22 and RIZIN FF 23 – dubbed “Starting Over” and “Calling Over” respectively – will take place at the Pia Arena in Yokohoma. The events will take place with fans in attendance, with the arena operating at 50% capacity to allow for social distancing. The headline fight of the weekend will see Kai Asakura take on Hiromasa Ogikubo for the vacant bantamweight title. The fight represents Asakura’s second consecutive shot at the bantamweight bout after he was knocked out by Manel Kape in their battle for the vacant belt at RIZIN FF 20. Kape has since departed RIZIN to join the UFC, leaving the title up for grabs once again, and Asakura is determined to take full advantage
