Bloodsport is coming to Japan.
Josh Barnett and Minoru Suzuki participated in a press conference announcing Bloodsport Bushido for June 22 in Japan. The event will take place at Ryogoku Kokugikan.
Bloodsport is a hybrid MMA-wrestling event where matches take place in a ring with no ropes and can only end by submission, knockout, or stoppage.
Only Barnett and Suzuki have been confirmed for the show.
