Japanese grappling organization Quintet continues to roll out impressive competitor lineups and dream matches. Among their specialty singles matches for their upcoming event, they’ve announced current Bellator fighter and former UFC champion Frank Mir taking on Olympic Judoka and MMA veteran and former Bellator and RIZIN fighter Satoshi Ishii.
Ishii’s been busy with both MMA and grappling, having recently won by submission against Bjorn Schmiedeberg in an MMA bout, then participating in QUINTET 1. He’s also scheduled to fight Chris “Huggy Bear“ Barnett this weekend in another MMA fight.
Mir has been a part of some pretty legendary submission, such as his bout againt Renato Sobral, as well as his Grappler’s Quest exhibition against a surprisingly agile Roy Nelson.
