Sengoku 11 Roundup: Very Enjoyable MMA

World Victory Road put on an exciting collection of fights Saturday night with Sengoku 11.

Eclipsed by the Strikeforce event here in the states, it is still a show that should not be overlooked.

Here are some highlights from the event.

 

Heavyweight Bout: United States Dave Herman vs. New Zealand Jim York

Jim york is a big guy, who decided to go for a heel lock.  Herman pounded him with legs from the other side of the lock and knocked him out with kicks.  It was a very unexpected ending and impressive to watch.  Herman dropped his legs like axe chops and you can see York go limp while still entangled.

 

Featherweight Bout: Japan Yuji Hoshino vs. Brazil Marlon Sandro

Quick and vicious knockout by Marlon Sandro in this one.  Sandro was angry out of the gate and ready to prove his power after his split decision loss at Sengoku 9 .

 

Welterweight Bout: Japan Akihiro Gono vs. South Korea Yoon Young Kim

Yoon Young Kim was giving out noodles and Michael Schiavello is already calling it for Fedor.  Boring fight, until the third round where Gono turns on the heat. Gono takes a decision, but doesn't look amazing in the process.

 

Light Heavyweight Bout: Bulgaria Stanislav Nedkov vs. United States Kevin Randleman

Kevin Randleman looks pretty solid for a 38-year-old, but he isn't putting himself out there enough.  In a decision that could have gone either way, Nedkov wins. It's almost a downer to see Randleman lose in such a smaller organization.
