This little bit of awesomeness comes courtesy of last weekend’s "Shoot the Shooto 2011″ card, which transpired in Tokyo, Japan and featured non other than Shooto legend Rumina Sato facing off with Belgian born fighter Nico Veressen. Sato, who you may remember as our Technique of the Year holder for 1999, has built his name off legendary battles with top competition like Takanori Gomi, Caol Uno (at the time), Joachim Hansen (again), and Hatsu Hioki. Veressan was 1-0 heading into the bout, with his lone win coming against a fellow 1-0 fighter.

Big ups to Cage Potato for the link and summary.
