11/8 Shooto - Back to Our Roots 6 - Joachim Hansen NEWS

Sherdog reports that Joachim Hansen is due to make his return to the ring in Shooto event "Back to our roots 6". This would make the card one of the best in Japan this year. In my mind, rivaling the HERO`s middleweight tournament.

The Sherdog source is the opponent, Eiji Mitsuoka.

Already on the card we have:
-Bantamweight title holder “BJ” Kojima
-Lightweight title holder Akitoshi Tamura
-Female standout Megumi Fujii
-Lightweight ranked #2 Antonio Carvalho
-A Welterweight title fight (Nakakura vs. Endo)
-Lightweight “Lion” Takeshi

Add Joachim Hansen to this and we have the super-card Shooto has promised that it will be.

Takashi Nakakura 8-2-1 VS 　10-1-1 Yusuke Endo
Katsuya Toida 10-6-3 VS 13-2-0 “Lion” Takeshi Inoue
Shinichi Kojima “BJ” 8-1-4 VS 2-1-0 Eduardo Dantas
Masaaki Sugawara 6-1-0 VS 3-2-0 Rambaa Somdet “M16”
