Японы холимог тулааны домогт тамирчин Шинъя Аоки эхний раундад хүнд цохилтод орж, техникийн нокаутаар ялагдлаа.
Осака хотын Kyocera Dome ордонд болсон Super RIZIN 5 тэмцээний хамтарсан гол тулаанд 43 настай Шинъя Аоки болон Микуру Асакура нар хүч үзэв. Тулааны эхэнд Аоки гарын боолт хийх оролдлогоор давамгайлж байсан ч Асакура түүнийг амжилттай хамгаалж, газрын тулаанд шийдвэрлэх цохилтуудыг гүйцэтгэснээр эхний раунд өндөрлөсөн байна.
Асакурагийн ялалт шүүгчийн шийдвэрээс үүдэн олны анхаарлыг татав. Шүүгч Аокид ирсэн хүнд цохилтуудыг зогсоохдоо хэт удааширч, шаардлагагүй олон цохилт өгөх боломж олгосон хэмээн үзэгчид шүүмжилжээ. Хэдийгээр Аоки 2003 оноос хойш 62 тулаан хийсэн туршлагатай ч, энэ удаагийн ялагдал нь түүний хувьд хүнд цохилт боллоо.
Энэ нь 2015 оноос хойш RIZIN-д анх удаа тулалдсан Аокигийн хувьд эргэн ирэлт нь амжилтгүй болсон үзүүлэлт юм. Өрсөлдөгч Микуру Асакурагийн хувьд өмнө нь Флойд Мэйведертэй үзүүлэх тоглолтод оролцож байсан туршлагатай бөгөөд энэ удаагийн ялалт нь түүний карьерын чухал эргэлт болж байна.

Shinya Aoki’s long-awaited return to RIZIN didn’t go his way.
History awaits Razhabali Shaydullaev and AJ McKee in the main event of Super RIZIN 5 following the promotion’s collaboration with PFL.
While this main event for two different belts is sure to draw attention, for many fans in attendance at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, the co-main event was another big draw.
A matchup between one of Japan’s top names and a returning legend resulted in a comeback win that many felt the referee should have stopped sooner.
Shinya Aoki suffers first round loss to Mikuru Asakura in RIZIN return
At Super RIZIN 5, MMA veteran Shinya Aoki looked to be en route to producing a huge win in his long-awaited return to the promotion.
The grappling specialist threatened with submissions but when Mikuru Asakura escaped an armbar attempt, he landed huge shots on the ground to get the first round finish.
Asakura, the brother of UFC fighter Kai Asakura, had his comeback win somewhat overshadowed by a late stoppage from the referee, who allowed several unnecessary shots to land before he intervened.
Despite making his MMA debut in 2003 and having 62 professional bouts under his belt, Aoki was able to get back to his feet shortly after the devastating loss.
This was the 43-year-old’s first fight in RIZIN since he headlined the promotion’s first event in 2015, having also competed in Pride, Strikeforce, Bellator and ONE Championship.

Aoki faced the likes of Ben Askren, Eddie Alvarez (twice), and Gilbert Melendez during his long career.
Asakura, who was stopped by Razhabali Shaydullaev last time out, previously competed in an exhibition match with Floyd Mayweather at Super RIZIN 1 in 2022.
This was the boxing star’s second appearance in the promotion, with Mayweather making quick work of kickboxing star Tenshin Nasukawa in 2018.
