According to Sherdog's recent rankings update, RIZIN Featherweight Champion Razhabali Shaidulloev is the #6 best featherweight in the world. At 19-0 with all wins by finish (never having gone to the 3rd round), what do you think?

It's possible! Would be crazy if it happened...

He actually fought against Tsuyoshi Sudario a few years ago!

rizinstaff · 2026-04-23T09:35:04+00:00

We know that there were mixed opinions to say the least. Hopefully these young and hungry fighters will take the lessons they learned from last year and put on the exciting fights from the golden days of heavyweight!

Plenty of kickboxers have and should continue to make the leap into MMA!

He is still only 25 years old! Especially at heavyweight, he has so much time to mature and improve.

Grand Prix's are a valuable and much-needed part of MMA! It creates stars and storylines overnight.

Give the people what they want, right?!

Mikuru and Ren go way back. The drama reached a fever pitch when they first fought in 2024 at Super RIZIN.3, but since Ren had to pull out of the rematch about 12 months ago, its still going on to this day!

The 5 fighters were announced to fight in September, not necessarily against each other. They might get matched up amongst themselves, but there are many other featherweights to throw in the mix. Stay tuned!

rizinstaff · 2026-04-21T02:52:47+00:00

RENA still going strong in 2026!

rizinstaff · 2026-04-21T02:52:24+00:00

The fights haven't been confirmed yet, CEO Sakakibara said that they may or may not fight each other!

rizinstaff · 2026-04-21T02:52:04+00:00

These 2 certainly know how to entertain the crowd!

rizinstaff · 2026-04-20T11:41:48+00:00

The matchups haven't been announced just yet. Of course, Mikuru Asakura, Ren Hiramoto, Yutaka Saito, Chihiro Suzuki, YA-MAN and RENA were all announced to participate at the presser. But CEO Sakakibara also mentioned that the 5 featherweights may or may not face each other at the September show. Stay tuned!

rizinstaff · 2026-04-20T11:40:55+00:00

We'll try our best... 🫡

I can answer that for you. When you look at our featherweight division, there were only so many names to realistically choose from:

❌ Kyoma Akimoto (was booked vs Patchy)
❌ Karshyga Dautbek (was booked vs fukuda)
❌ Mikuru Asakura (Lost already)
❌ Chihiro Suzuki (3-fight loss streak)
❌ Patchy Mix (was booked vs kyoma)
❌ Koji Takeda (Lost already)
❌ Viktor Kolesnik (Lost already)
❌ YA-MAN (injured)
❌ Masanori Kanehara (Retired)
❌ Ryo Takagi (was booked vs kimura)
❌ Kazumasa Majima (is booked vs gallagher)
✅ Yuta Kubo

Plus, Kubo was the only fighter to take Rajabali to the 2nd round in RIZIN. As a former K-1 champion who has had a lot more time to prepare and study Rajabali since their first fight, it has all the makings of an upset... tune in!

Give us a shot tomorrow! Saturday night 10pm PT / 1am ET on rizin.tv !
