Enson explains riot after Rizin 27 fight

At least Rizin is getting talked about again. But their current roster may not even be as good as the first PRIDE.

[EVILYOSHIDA]

yeah.
That last card RIZIN 27 was by far the worst Rizin i have ever seen so far

Tons of no namers, lackluster fights.. no characters

Rizin has gone down the tubes

they wasted money on FLOYD.. provided zero benefit long term

RIZIN can’t bring in many foreigners because of Covid. Once the rules in Japan relax they can start to make a push again.

yeah you don't really need foreigners per se.. just more quality matchmaking + more buildup of their fighters

i remember shooto used to be a lot of japanese vs. japanese and it was exciting. same with Bushido
they forgot how to build up the mystique around the fighters.
they are getting sloppy

[Todd Atkins MMA Show]

RIZIN is saying them are a platform for the best fighters from all organizations in Japan but unlike PRIDE they aren’t signing fighters to exclusive contracts. It’s just a showcase event of sorts.

yeah. the spirit of cooperation is greater in Japan than in the US
i remember the orgs used to not be "muh fighter" as much
