(Video) Wanderlei Silva vs Sakuraba in Grappling Match Tag Team at Rizin

Recently released by the UFC and with his lifetime ban reduced to three years, Japan’s Rizin Fighting Federation has signed former PRIDE FC champion.

Many expected Wanderlei to get a mega fight with Fedor, but Silva, did a Jiu-Jitsu exhibition match on Rizin’s April show in Nagoya. This match was be a 2 vs 2 tag team match.
Silva teamed up with Japanese MMA legend Kiyoshi Tamura and faced Kazushi Sakuraba and Hideo Tokoro in a unique grappling tag team match.

We haven’t seen much of Wanderlei’s grappling in MMA, but he is a BJJ black belt under Cristiano Marcelo (student of Royler Gracie).

Silva has fought and beaten both Sakuraba and Tamura in MMA.
