On Wednesday night RIZIN FF boss Nobuyuki Sakakibara and Nobuhiko Takada held a press conference in Japan to announce a featherweight contest between top-ranked kickboxer Minoru Kimura, who makes his MMA debut, and PRIDE FC, KOTC veteran Charles “Krazy Horse” Bennett.
Bennett (29-30-2) rose to fame in 2005 when he became the first man to defeat Yoshiro Maeda at PRIDE: Bushido 7. Not only did he become the first man to defeat Maeda, but he also became the first to KO Maeda.
