Rizin puts on their first show ever from outside Japan on November 4. Rizin Landmark 7 will be live from Baku, Azerbaijan. Rizin Landmark 7 will have English commentary as always and the card will feature an international cornucopia of world-class fighters with many newcomers to the promotion.
You will see the Rizin featherweight title on the line as champion Vugar Karamov takes on challenger Chihiro Suzuki. In the co-main event, fan favorites will clash as Bellator’s Tofiq Musayev takes on former Deep lightweight champion Koji Takeda. There will also be a match with UAE featherweight champion Jaures Dea taking on Ilkhom Nazimov who has finished all but one of his fights. In a strawweight match, Anastasiya Svetkivska returns to look for her first win in the promotion when she takes on promotion newcomer and undefeated Farida Abdueva. There will also be a rematch between two big men when Quentin Domingos looks to avenge his loss to Shota Betlemidze. DWCS vet Nariman Abbasov will take on RCC vet Ali Abdulkhalikov. ACA vet Tural Ragimov will look to snap his 2 fight-losing streak when he takes on Road to UFC semi-finalist Kyung Pyo Kim.
