The Rizin Fighting Federation will kick off its 2023 campaign with Rizin 41 on Saturday at Maruzen Intec Arena in Osaka, Japan, as Koji Tanaka toes the line against Ryusei Ashizawa in a three-round bantamweight headliner contested under kickboxing rules. Meanwhile, a featherweight tilt between Yoshinori Horie and Vugar Karamov anchors the mixed martial arts portion of the show.
