8/9 Shooto Gig Saitama 1 - Rumina Sato in Grappling Fight + Fight Order

Monday 20 July 2009



The 1st GIG Saitama card is ready, and the honor of the main event goes to "Shinpei" Tahara vs. Jessie Taitano. This will be a catchweight fight and should be a very interesting match-up of a top flyweight and a fighter climbing the bantamweight ranking.

Also added to the card is a grappling fight between Rumina Sato and Yoshihiko Matsumoto. Rumina has been struggling in the ring lately, and has been mixing it up with a bit of ShootBoxing, but he is a star in Shooto and I am sure there will be lots of fans wanting to see him grapple agian.

Over all a good Saitama GIG card, these are more about promoting up and coming fighters, and this card should do just that.
