Hiromasa Ogibuko defends Shooto title vs. Onibozu in October

TUF 24 Finalist Hiromasa Ogibuko was hoping to fight on the UFC Fight Night 117 card in Japan, but it sadly sounds as though he will not get his wish.

In the meantime, he has signed on to defend his Shooto Flyweight Championship against Tadaaki “Onibozu” Yamamoto.

Hiromasa had this to say:

“On October 15th (Sunday) at the Maihama Amphitheatre I’ll be having a Shooto belt defence fight. My opponent is Onibouzu.

I really wanted to be on the UFC Japan card but it’s already been decided so I’m going to put it all on the line and knock down Onibouzu.
