Akasaka Fight Festival - Day 1

Tuesday 1 July 2008

I finished work early easterday (about 7) so I deceided to make my way down to the TBS building in Akasaka. A good thing too, FEG/TBS seems serious about this festival and "Kid" Yamamoto had brought his whole Krazy Bee gang. It was a fun event, with interview, sparing sessions and some fun. This is something you should visit if you are in Tokyo this week!

Make sure you check out Sherdog's stuff from the event too:
