It’s amazing what a last-minute replacement can do when offered a gargantuan fight. Despite missing weight and having some of his Sengoku pay reduced, Taisuke Okuno managed to replace Dan Hornbuckle and was up against the heavily favored Ryo Chonan. Coming in at a four-to-one underdog, Okuno managed to land a brutal overhand right to send Chonan to the mat for the remainder of the fight. Hey, look at that — we have the video right here. It’s like Christmas all over again.
