Four-time BJJ World Cup Champion
Leonardo Santos will be making his return to the Sengoku ring against the newly recruited "Sengoku training player"
Sotaro Yamada at SRC 14 on August 22nd World Victory Road announced Monday.
Santos, a Nova Uniao black belt, last fought in Sengoku back in March where he choked out former middleweight and welterweight King of Pancrase Kiuma Kunioku in the first round.
Yamada holds a MMA record of 6-4-1 but has not fought since 2008 but instead has been focusing on his grappling. Training out of Kazuyuki Miyata's BRAVE gym and part of Sengoku's fighter development program, Yamada holds a notable submission victory over CBJJ Mundial Champion and ADCC veteran Ryan Hall.
Full card for SRC 14 after the break.
