U japanskoj Saitami Filipović je u Grand Prix Rizin meču pobijedio Južnokorejanca Hyun Man Munga gušenjem u prvoj rundi.
Tri vijesti o kojima se priča
Filipović (43) je deset godina mlađeg i deset kilograma težeg protivnika već na početku meča srušio na parter i 'gušenjem' brzo završio borbu. Nakon osam godina Filipović se pobjedom vratio u Japan, zemlju gdje je i postigao svoje najveće uspjehe u karijeri, u kojoj sada ima 32 pobjede, 11 poraza i dva neodlučena ishoda.
Mirkova pobjeda oduševila je i njegove navijače diljem svijeta, koji su borbu s Južnokorejancem prokomentirali na društvenim mrežama.

Cro Cop looks for keylock from full mount, pounds the ribs, then snatches an arm-triangle choke! Myung taps easily. Surreal stuff. #RizinFF
