From www.pridefc.com :
Kazushi Sakuraba appeared on a Fuji Television sports show, "Sport", late Friday night and announced that he will fight in the November 24th PRIDE 23 at Tokyo Dome.
At the same time as Sakuraba's appearance, DSE released an official statement, verifying Sakuraba's participation. Sakuraba, on Sport, said that since this is Takada's retirement fight, "I'd don't want to be just his second. I want to fight at the same venue and feel the same sense of nervousness that he will. After we win, we'll go out and drink the best tasting beer in the world."
When asked about his own return match, Sakuraba commented, "I've been waiting a year for this. I just want to let everything that's built up this year to explode." It looks like Sakuraba will not only accompany his teacher from his U-Inter days, Takada, to the ring but will also stand in the ring at PRIDE 23 himself!
