Satoshi Ishii will face kickboxer Antz Nansen in a DREAM rules bout at the K-1 World MAX 2010 Final on Nov. 8, parent company Fighting and Entertainment Group announced via Ustream on Wednesday. Ishii appeared on the webcast in a pre-recorded message from Los Angeles, where he's currently training.
Ishii will not be the first Olympic judoka Nansen has met: on Sept. 23, 2009, the New Zealand native TKO'd 2004 silver medalist Hiroshi Izumi in both men's MMA debut.

damn
this is a dangerous but not unreasonable fight for Ishii. Rare example of good talent development in Japan. Still hoping they can book him against Asashoryu for Dynamite!!

I used to think Antz Nantzen was the fighter least in need of a nickname in all mma
Then I discovered Wachim Spiritwolf.

Ishii will actually use his Judo though.
