What do you fellas think of this? This is bringing them at lot of attention and if they have a successful event this might boost rizin even more, the bad news you can bet as soon as a soccer kick head stomp is seen you can bet that's barbaric someone will die 

Before people say uh stomps in street fights yeah well people have died from being coward punched, someone hits someone from behind they fall and smack their head hard onto the gutter they die next day that's from one punch

Conor can say whatever he wants, Tenshin earned a fight with Mayweather. I like Tenshin's response. Would be cool to see Tenshin vs. Conor in the future.

No one should touch the soccer kicks, stomps, knees on the ground, or elbows. Those are the best rules in MMA.

That was a classy come back from tenshin. 

Unfortunately you can guarantee some journo some where will see rizin rules and write a long piece ranting about it .

He might of done too  realised shit this kids for real good news at least it has given rizin more international attention though only briefly .

Different note on the whole germaine vs cyborg thing it's amazing how when a person says germaine would pick cyborg apart in striking match people think "you don't know what the fuck you're talking about" yeah because 2-1 no belts is way more impressive than 37-0 multiple titles. It is amazing of how dense some people are when it comes to things like this .

Didn't Germaine pretty much admit that she didn't want to fight Cyborg which is a reason why she forfeited the title?

Yes she did I'm going on how people for some reason think cyborg is a better striker than germaine, this was from over a year ago. Similar to who ever he was who thinks jon jones is a better striker than Israel adesanya.

Since Josh is no longer in the ufc according to his Wikipedia page he be a good addition to their heavy weight rooster 

As for the main event my guess is they will probably make kyoji vs who ever as the main event especially if they can't find tenshin a new opponent.

Rizin does kickboxing who in peoples mind is the greatest kickboxer of all time?

Giorgio. Badr is up there too.

Man Just imagine a person having the stand up skills of petrosyan the submission skills of roger gracie and the wrestling of Aleksandr karelin the boxing skills of sugar Ray Robinson Man that fighter would be undefeated in mma.

That would be one tough fighter nobody could beat.

Definitely and hoost as well. I pick petrosyan for obvious reasons the guy isn't the flashiest but it is amazing of how he picks these guys apart. 

I would love to see him fight sittichai  Also i would love to see the doctor in a rizin kb gp.

Oh yeah, Hoost too for sure. Would be great if Rizin could get Petrosyan. I wonder what his current contract is like.

Of course such a fighter would be unbeatable.

But that kind of fighter is also impossible. (Except in a video game.)

The reason is that each of these are not only the respective best in their sports (is Roger Gracie? I don't know about BJJ much, but is he actually on the same level as the others? I'm actually not sure.)

Anyway, the reason it's impossible is that each of these fighters were not just incredibly skilled, incredible athletes, and incredibly well trained; they were also incredibly experienced in their sports, and that last one counts for a hell of a lot. They honed their skills through fights. Training isn't the same as competition.

There aren't enough days in the year, or years in life, for a single fighter to become truly experienced and elite in 4 different sports. MMA is a melting pot of sorts, but it is impressive when an elite athlete in wrestling or kickboxing becomes an elite fighter in MMA. They are true two sport athletes.

Combat sports is a little different from other sports. But what you are suggesting, is something like if Bo Jackson was not just an elite football and baseball player; but was also an elite basketball and ice hockey player (if we indeed we pretend that the scheduling was even possible. Let's pretend basketball was played in the summer, football in the fall, hockey in the winter, and baseball in the spring. So, we'll pretend it's technically possible. But that's pretty much what you are suggesting. But you are also suggesting that he is the best in each sport. He is Gretzky, Jordan, Bonds, and Deon Sanders.)

Just not a realistic conversation.

Just not realistic.
