Kyoji Horiguchi set up the possibility of a rubber match with Sergio Pettis today at RIZIN 47, by defeating the former Bellator champ in the card’s main event.

Pettis came from behind to knock Horiguchi out with a  spinning back fist in their 2021 tilt, which took place under the Bellator banner. In today’s bantamweight contest, however, RIZIN’s flyweight champ worked his way to a unanimous decision win.

The card also saw former RIZIN featherweight champ Kleber Koike submit former RIZIN and Bellator champ, Juan Archuleta, with a first-round, heel hook.

Here are the complete results for the event, which took place in Tokyo, Japan.
