Quintet 4
When: September 10, 2023 5am EST
Where: Yokohama Arena, Yokohama, Japan
How To Watch: Flograppling.com
Kazushi Sakuraba’s Quintet is back… finally!
Four teams of five will square off to find out who’s team is the best.
Craig Jones will be bringing his B Team to Japan to take on Owen Livesey of team Polaris, Geo Martinez and his 10th Planet crew, and of course the legend himself – Kazushi Sakuraba and his team.
The Rules……..
The four teams have a combined weight limit to reach. They will send their grapplers one at a time, with the goal of eliminating the entire team. You can only advance via submission, while draws eliminate both grapplers. So, if your first teammate wins, he will face off against the other team’s second member. If they draw, then they are both eliminated and next man is up. It is a fun format, and you could see a David vs. Goliath match or two play out.
