Cage Force Featherweight Champion Yuji Hoshino (16-7-7) will make his Sengoku debut on November 7th against Featherweight King of Pancrase Marlon Sandro (14-1). Hoshino holds a record of 8-0-3 since 2004; however, he hasn't fought since his unanimous decision win over "Wicky" Akiyo Nishiura last December. Sandro is coming off the first loss of his career to Michihiro Omigawa in the Sengoku FWGP semifinals, a match which most felt Sandro won.

Sharp dressed Hoshino at the presser today…
At a press conference on the 24th, Hoshino’s SENGOKU participation was officially announced. WVR PR Kokuho said that they offered Hoshino a spot in the GP. He couldn’t participate however due to injury and family circumstances (marriage, etc.).
Hoshino thinks that there are many great fighters in SENGOKU’s FW division after seeing the GP. He himself wants to display good fights and liven up SENGOKU. Hoshino thinks that his break has been a good refresh for him. He had many injuries previously which he has now received treatment on so he’ll appear in the Sandro fight in his best condition.
