The event will take place at the RIZIN FF — LANDMARK VOL. 13 tournament, which will be held on April 12 in Fukuoka.
“Although the fight date is already set, the opponent has not yet been assigned. It doesn’t matter to me who I fight. I am ready to have several bouts in one tournament against different opponents,” noted Shaidullaev.
The Kyrgyz fighter won the RIZIN championship title in the 66 kg weight category on May 4, 2025, defeating Japanese fighter Kleber Koike in 62 seconds.
Later, on September 8 of the same year, Shaidullaev knocked out Viktor Kolesnik from Russia in just 33 seconds.
On December 31, 2025, he once again showcased his skills, knocking out Mikuru Asakura from Japan in 2 minutes and 54 seconds, successfully defending his title for the second time.
