All Matches Live on 'ABEMA PPV'! Danny Sabatello Delivers Sharp-Tongued Commentary for 'Daiwa Development presents RIZIN LANDMARK 13 in FUKUOKA' Held on Sunday, April 12

The new future TV "ABEMA" will broadcast all matches of "Daiwa Development presents RIZIN LANDMARK 13 in FUKUOKA" (hereafter "RIZIN LANDMARK 13"), Japan's premier martial arts event held by RIZIN, live on "ABEMA PPV" on Sunday, April 12, 2026, at Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall A.

Ahead of this, a special video was released on ABEMA's official martial arts YouTube channel, where the 8th RIZIN Bantamweight Champion Danny Sabatello delivers his signature "toxic" (sharp-tongued) commentary on the event's most highly anticipated matchups.

In this project, Sabatello, known for his relentless trash talk, thoroughly analyzes the spotlight cards of "RIZIN LANDMARK 13" from his unique perspective. As he prepares for his own bantamweight title match, he not only discusses his opponent Joji Goto and the broader bantamweight division but also shares unforgiving comments on other major fights, such as the featherweight title match between Rajabali Shaydullaev and Yuta Kubo.

In this project, Sabatello, known for his relentless trash talk, thoroughly analyzes the spotlight cards of "RIZIN LANDMARK 13" from his unique perspective. Regarding Yoshinori Horie, who will fight Patricky Pitbull in the 10th match, Sabatello praised him, saying, "He is highly skilled, in his prime age, and an ascending fighter," but analyzed, "His record is inconsistent—he beats strong opponents but loses to nobodies." He predicted Horie's victory, noting, "Pitbull is on a losing streak, so this might be a chance for Horie."

However, touching upon Horie's past incident where he angered CEO Nobuyuki Sakakibara by drinking too much, Sabatello left a harsh comment: "Stop drinking right now and never drink again for the rest of your life. Getting scolded directly by him is just plain stupid." He continued with intense words: "Maybe your record is inconsistent because you drink too much? Take a good look at yourself. If you won't change even after Sakakibara-san tells you to, then I, the RIZIN Champion, will kick you out."

Regarding Yuta Kubo, who faces Rajabali Shaydullaev in the featherweight title match, Sabatello evaluated, "He is a fighter with wonderful striking," but analyzed, "Shaydullaev is truly strong. If Kubo has a chance to win, it depends on maintaining the striking exchanges." Furthermore, when asked about Kubo's TikTok, he delivered a severe remark: "If you want to be a champion, you have other things to do. Get out of that lukewarm environment immediately and focus on martial arts."

As for his own opponent, Joji Goto, Sabatello confidently stated, "He lands his left overhand, but it's just repeating the same thing. It won't hit me. He's only hitting it because he's facing low-level opponents." He declared his victory: "Goto probably wants to bring it to a striking battle, but that's a huge miscalculation. I want a striking battle too. I will finish him no matter what. I will win overwhelmingly in Fukuoka and defend my belt."

Furthermore, providing insights only a world-class fighter like Sabatello can offer, the video delves into the strengths of each fighter and match predictions, making it a content piece that allows fans to enjoy the tournament more deeply. Please pay attention to the array of brutally honest talks that can only emerge right before the fights.
