RIZIN 45 Live Streams Free TV Channel, fight card, start time Ring in the new year with RIZIN Fighting Federation this Sunday. At RIZIN FF 45, we have two championship fights, which include the return of fan favorites Kyoji Horiguchi and Kai Asakura. In the headliner, Horiguchi and Makoto Takahashi vie for the inaugural RIZIN flyweight championship.
Five months ago, the pair saw their fight for the Bellator flyweight championship come to an end in less than 30 seconds after Horiguchi accidentally poked Takahashi in the eye at Super Rizin 2: RIZIN X Bellator.
In the co-headliner, RIZIN bantamweight champion Juan Archuleta goes for his first defense against Kai Asakura. The pair were expected to vie for the-then vacant championship at the aforementioned Super Rizin 2: RIZIN X Bellator, but Asakura was forced to withdraw due to injury. Archuleta went on to face Hiromasa Ougikubo, who he defeated via decision.
