Interesting for 2 reasons

1. Is this with Yaegashi/Roman?!

2. He's either not fighting in Singapore or taking this fight before that... which I doubt.

1-Yes, it's with the Yaegashi/Gonzalez and Inoue/Kokietgym fights...supercard much?

2-With no firm details about the Singapore card I guess we can assume that's off. Just like the one that was apparently set to be held September 21st 2013.

Good 5th fight for Murata. The Opponent will be tough because he is mexican Champion. Mexicans are always tough.
