Just a quick reminder that myself and the BE Night Crew will be up in full force for live results and discussion of the HDNet-broadcast Sengoku VIII beginning at 3AM EDT / 12 AM PDT on Saturday morning (aka late night tonight). World Victory Road’s latest outing takes place at Yoyogi National Stadium in Tokyo and features four great bouts in the second round of the Sengoku Featherweight Grand Prix, as well as a possible lightweight title eliminator between Kazunori Yokota and Leonardo Santos, prospects like Xande Ribeiro, Maximo Blanco, Stanislav Nedkov and more.
