A beautiful blue sky sunny Saturday morning to you!

I know we have a GIANT UFC 296 event going on tonight but there's something about PUTASOS in Nihon that are just fantastic.

Oh did we mention it's going to be on New Years Eve?

That's right, RIZIN 45 is bringing us keyboard warriors a MONSTROUS event come 12/31 with their annual special New Years Eve event.

Headlining this stacked event is RIZIN BW Title Fight Champion Juan Archuleta defending his title against Kai Asakura.

This matchup is highly anticipated bout that was supposed to happen earlier this year before Kai had to pull out due to injury.

Now that Kai has returned and Juan Archuleta has captured the RIZIN Title, this has raised the stakes even more for a special NYE showdown in Nippon.

We're also going to look at, whom I think could be an underrated fighter of the year, YA-MAN and see his MMA debut scrap and also a BTS of his training as he prepares to battle Ren Hiramoto on the same card.

YA-MAN is having a monstrous year already capturing the Open Fingers Glove Championship in RISE and also completely DISMANTLING Japanese MMA superstar, Mikuru Asakura just a few weeks ago in November.

BRING THE TEA, LET'S GO!
