Not to be outdone this year, World Victory Road added four more bouts to it’s upcoming Sengoku: Soul of Fight event.
Unlike last year when WVR teamed up with FEG to put on the Dynamite!! 2009 event, WVR is putting on its own event with the Soul of Fight show, scheduled for Dec. 30th at the Ariake Coliseum in Tokyo, Japan. The all day mixed martial arts event will feature up to 30 bouts of Muay Thai, grappling, and mma matches. The promotion is in negotiations with HDNet to air the event in North America.
Announced on Friday was a cross promotional bouts between Sengoku’s Maximo Blanco (7-2-1) vs. DREAM’s Won Sik Park (9-2-1), and Sengoku’s Masanori Kanehara (15-7-5) vs. DREAM’s Yoshiro Maeda (27-9-2).
Also announced were women’s bouts featuring Roxanne Modafferi (15-6) vs. Hitomi Akano (16-8) and Misaki Takimoto (12-11-4) vs. Amy Davis (1-1).
Blanco is on a five fight winning streak having earned three of those wins this year at previous Sengoku events. Park has won his last two and is 2-1-1 in his last four fights, fighting for four different Japanese promotions in those fights.
