World Victory Road’s end of year event “Sengoku: Soul of Fight” is an ambitious effort. Twenty-eight men’ss and women’s bouts fought under MMA, Muay Thai, kickboxing, “jacket rules”, a featherweight title fight and welterweight and bantamweight tournaments.

Fortunately for my keyboard and my sleep schedule, I’m not an ambitious man and so after the jump I’ll break down the fights that you need to know about for the first of two huge nights in Japanese MMA.

Sengoku Raiden Championship promoter World Victory Road announced six fights on Thursday for its end of year “Soul Of Fight” event to be held at the Ariake Colosseum in Tokyo on December 30th.

Recently crowned Shoot Boxing S-Cup Champion and two time K-1 World MAX Champion Buakaw Por. Pramuk will take on 2010 K-1 MAX Japan tournament finalist Hiroki Nakajima in a kickboxing bout while Grabaka’s Kazunori Yokota will try to claim revenge for former team mate Akihiro Gono when he faces Team Asashoryu’s Jadamba Narantungalag under MMA rules.

Also announced were kickboxing bouts, muay thai bouts and “jacket” matches (which are likely to be essentially combat sambo bouts) featuring the likes of Flyweight King Of Pancrase Kiyotaka Shimizu, WBC Muay Thai Bantamweight Champion Arashi Fujiwara and New Japan Kickboxing Flyweight Champion Mutsuki Ebata.
