Four new match-ups have been announced for Rizin 15 on April 21, including Justin Scoggins’ return to the Japanese ring in Yokohama.
Scoggins will replace fellow UFC veteran Ulka Sasaki against Kai Asakura in a bantamweight bout. According to the promotion, Sasaki was forced out of the card due to a visceral infection.
Scoggins will attempt to get back to the win column after losing to Yuki Motoya in one of the best submissions of the year in 2018. Prior to that, he lost three straight to Sasaki, Said Nurmagomedov and Pedro Munhoz in the UFC.
