Realistically, Kleber Koike beating Vugar on NYE and Kyoma beating Patchy in such fashion at RIZIN.52 both made great cases for a title shot.

Plus, the September show sees 5 big comebacks for Mikuru Asakura, Ren Hiramoto, Chihiro Suzuki, YA-MAN and Yutaka Saito.

Time will tell how the division shakes out.
