Background
RIZIN Fighting Federation closes out 2024 with RIZIN 49: DECADE, a monumental New Year’s Eve event marking ten years of unforgettable moments in combat sports.
Set to unfold in the iconic Saitama Super Arena, Japan’s most legendary stage for MMA and beyond, DECADE delivers a stacked card featuring title clashes, international showdowns, and history in the making.
In the main event, Japan’s featherweight king Chihiro Suzuki defends his title against submission artist Kleber Koike Erbst. Suzuki, the explosive striker known for his fast-paced aggression and devastating knockouts, has cemented himself as a fan-favorite and one of Japan’s brightest MMA stars. Across the ring stands Koike Erbst, a Brazilian jiu-jitsu specialist who has terrorized the featherweight division with his lethal grappling and smooth transitions. This is the striker versus grappler matchup that fans dream of—one punch, one takedown, and everything could change.
The co-main event sees lightweight champion Roberto de Souza face his toughest challenge yet in Azerbaijan’s rising star, Vugar Karamov. De Souza, a two-time RIZIN lightweight champion, brings his signature dominance on the ground with world-class jiu-jitsu, but Karamov has proven to be an unrelenting force, combining raw athleticism with power striking. Can Karamov end the reign of the champion, or will “Satoshi” once again showcase why he’s the king of RIZIN’s lightweight throne?
RIZIN also brings a thrilling flyweight title defense as Japanese icon Kyoji Horiguchi puts his belt on the line against South Africa’s Nkazimulo Zulu. Horiguchi, who has seamlessly transitioned back to RIZIN after international success, remains one of Japan’s greatest martial artists. Zulu, known for his resilience and sharp striking, will be looking to shock the world and carry gold back to Africa.
Beyond the title fights, the card is loaded with compelling matchups. Super Atomweight star Seika Izawa returns to face Argentina’s Lucia Apdelgarim, a clash of styles between Izawa’s precision and the South American’s aggressive approach. Veteran lightweight Yusuke Yachi takes on rising prospect Taisei Sakuraba in an all-Japanese showdown, while the heavyweight clash between Mikio Ueda and South Korea’s Kim Tae-in promises an earth-shaking spectacle.
In a nod to the event’s legacy and combat sports history, RIZIN introduces a series of Rizin Standing Bout Rules, featuring explosive matchups such as Ryan Garcia vs. Rukiya Anpo and Curmel Moton vs. Albert Pagara. These special bouts bring elite strikers to the forefront, blending MMA and striking worlds for pure adrenaline-fueled action.
From championship bouts to emerging stars, RIZIN 49: DECADE celebrates a decade of triumphs, rivalries, and the unrelenting spirit of martial arts. On December 31, as the world turns the page to a new year, RIZIN ensures that Saitama Super Arena remains the heartbeat of combat sports. Don’t miss the moment that closes out a decade of fighting and ushers in a new chapter of greatness.
