Krush Super Bantamweight champion

Riamu was scheduled to face the former Krush Bantamweight champion Begin Yoshioka in the tournament quarterfinals, held at Krush 128 on August 21, 2021.[12] Yoshioka failed to make weight for the fight, which meant Riamu would advance to the tournament semifinals regardless of the fight result.

Riamu was scheduled to face Yuto Kuroda in the tournament semifinals, held at Krush 130 on October 31, 2021.[15] He won the fight by unanimous decision, with all three judges awarding him a 30-28 scorecard. Although the first and third rounds were scored as a draw, the knockdown Riamu scored near the end of the second round was enough to earn him the victory. Riamu faced Momotaro Kiyama in the tournament finals. After a slow first round, Riamu upped the pace midway through the second round and dropped Kiyama with a right hook. This was quickly followed by a second knockdown with a left hook, before the referee stopped the fight at the very end of the second round.[16]
