11/29 Shooot Tradition 04 - Pictures
Saturday's Shooto event was awesome, I was there and took some pictures.
Hayakawa has an ability to get stuck in some submissions in the 2nd round. Here Nezu is close to ending the fight early, something that would have been a shame. Hayakawa was the better fighter in the 1st round, but Nezu took the second and it ended in a deserved draw.
Atsushi Takeuchi was better than Katsuya Murofushi standing, and got in some good punches.
When the fight hit the ground, he looked in control there too.
Eventually Takeuchi get a guiliotine choke in that ended the fight in the second round.
Ogikubo wanted to take Tazawa down, and he did that in all the rounds. Unfortunately, Tazawa defended well and it ended in a draw.
The last 3 fights on this card were awesome on paper, first out was Takashi Nakakura against Bendy Casimir. I had picked this as a very close fight, and was wrong... Casimir looked good once the fight was standing, but on the ground Nakakura proved to be the better grappler. Nakakura landed some heavy punches.
Casimir was forced to give up his back and Nakakura took full advantage. With just seconds remaining in the first round he sunk in a deep rear-naked choke.
I think Casimir thought he could last the round and did not tap. But with 2 seconds left the ref was forced to stop the fight and Casimir was left unconcious.
A very strong performance by Nakakura!
The next fight was between Rumina Sato and Hatsu Hioki. In this fight Hioki didnt take long to get Rumina on the ground, and once there he got mount. The ref had to step in, Hioki's gnp was too much for the veteran.
The main event was the title fight between Hideki Kadowaki and "Lion" Takeshi. I think everyone expected Kadowaki to take this to the ground. I was surprised that he didnt immediately do that though. He was able to land some good shots on the challenger and for a second it looked like "Lion" was in danger.
Unfortuantely for Kadowaki, the fight did not end that way. "Lion" took round 2 and 3. In the end he also get the decision and was crowned the new champion.

12/6 K-1 World GP - Finals
The upcoming weekend will be big in Japan, and it should be a fun one! Saturday there are 2 events (if you count this one), K-1 and Cage Force. Sunday we will have Pancrase.
I will sit out Saturday (probably catch K-1 on TV), then get to the Pancrase event.
But the K-1 World GP Finals are always big and this year you can watch it on HDNet (if you're in the states).
This year the big favorite Semmy Schilt was knocked out in the previous round, a very good performance by Peter Aerts saw him taking the decision. Aerts will take on Badr Hari, in my eyes the winner could very well come for this fight. It could also result in injury to both fighters, so as always, keep an eye on the reserve fights.
As for Semmy Schilt, I would expect to see him on NYE in the Dynamite event. Maybe even fighting MMA rules.
The fights on Saturday:
Main-Event - Final: Winner Semi-Final 1 vs. Winner Semi-Final 2
Semi-Final 2: Winner Quarter-Final 3 vs. Winner Quarter-Final 4
Semi-Final 1: Winner Quarter-Final 1 vs. Winner Quarter-Final 2
Reserve Fight (2): Paul Slowinski vs. Melvin Manhoef
Reserve Fight (1): Hong Man Choi vs. Ray Sefo
World GP Quarter-Finals:
#4 - Remy Bonjasky vs. Jerome LeBanner
#3 - Gokhan Saki vs. Ruslan Karaev
#2 - Errol Zimmerman vs. Ewerton Teixeira
#1 - Peter Aerts vs. Badr Hari
Opening Fights:
Mitsugu Noda vs. Tsutomu Takahagi

Pride Secret Files - Book on sale!
Nightmare of Battle is reporting that KamiPro is releasing a book about Pride secrets. From what I can see, it should go on sale December 1 (today).
What can we expect? Here are some things:
The true ambition of Lorenzo when he bought PRIDE.
DREAM was born from the PRIDE LW GP that was supposed to happen in 2008.
PRIDE.1 was Takada vs. Rickson and Sakuraba vs. Renzo.
The plan of Riki Choshu, Shinya Hashimoto and Masakatsu Funaki participating.
The other side of the termination of Royce vs Kerr.
Keisuke Kuwata (singer) vs. Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi (singer) realization by PRIDE?
Something about a sumo wrestler (KONISHIKI) acquisition of PRIDE.
A plan about a reality show.
Something about Holyfield.
For the full list, go here.
I have sort of some reservations on this... I would expect a lot of details around the Zuffa purchase, and in some ways a one-sided account of that transaction. For those who are hoping for it to be translated... I think this is meant for the Japanese market, some of you will understand what I mean by that. It would be good if it was though.

1/18 Shooto - Tradition 5
At last night's event they also introduced some fights for the first Shooto event next year. This will be held in Differ Ariake, as suppose to the usual Korakuen Hall.
On the card will be super-veteran Jin Akimoto, Akimoto was a very good fighter. But after taking 2 years off, he has not recorded a win (thats 9 fights without a win!). Akimoto has faced good opponents though, and he should be favorite against "Gozo".
The money fight on this card is the fight between Endo and Boku though. This should be the main-event, even if it is not a title fight. Boku lost by decision to "Hellboy" in his last fight and is currently on a 2 fight losing streak. Yusuke Endo is the current Pacific Rim Shooto Champion, and he will be facing a former champion. This is a non-title fight though.
Announced:
Welter: Yusuke Endo 12-2-1 vs. 13-5-1 Koutetsu Boku
Feather: Junya "KODO" Kudo 6-2-2 vs. 5-4-1 Takahiro Hosoi
Bantam: Jin Akimoto 10-12-4 vs. 4-6-0 Ayumu "Gozo" Shioda

12/13 Shooto - Rookie Tournament Finals - Fight Added
This should be a good event, held in Shinjuku Face Saturday December 13. The rookie tournament finals is always a good place to spot the next Shooto stars. Last year's MVP was Ogikubo, who is defietely one to look out for.
This year, there are some very good fighters to look out for as well.
Added to the card is a non-tournament fight, but it should still be a good one! 2 foreigners fighting in Japan will square off. Paulo Milano will fight Guy Delameau
Added:
Paulo Milano 6-3-1 vs. 7-4-0 Guy Delameau

11/29 Shooto Tradition 4 - Results
Just came home form the event, and it was a good one!! For the ones who have been waiting for the results.
Kadowaki came out like a champion, he tried his best on his feet and actually hit "Lion" a couple of times. As the rounds went on though, it went more and more the way of the challenger, and he got the decision in the end.
For me, the big fight was Ogikubo. I actaully thought he controlled most of the fight on the ground... The judges disagreed and gave them a draw. Which is hard to argue with, I guess...
"Mike" really showed his stuff in the 1st round, but as is too common... He gassed in the 2nd. He got a draw this time, but he will be back!!! "Mike" will get a win one of these days, it was exciting again today!
In the other BIG fights today, I was surprised how easy the favorites dealt with the issue... Nakakura dominated Casimir and Hioki dominated Rumina.
On another note, there were a couple of famous fighters there, Gomi was enjoying the fights, posing for pictures with fans. Also "Wicky" Akiyo was relaxing before his final in Cage Force next week! Both very nice guys, and "Wicky" is READY!
1. Nobuhiro "Mike" Hayakawa vs. Yuta Nezu DRAW
2. Taisuke Okuno Def. Daisuke "Hunt" Okumiya by Decision 3-0
3. Atsushi Takeuchi Def. Katsuya Murofushi by rear-naked choke Round 2 1:44
4. Yutaka Ueda Def. Jin Kazeta by TKO Round 1 3:23
5. So Tazawa vs. Hiromasa Ogikubo DRAW

12/10 DEEP 39 - Changes (Injury and Addition)
The DEEP Impact 39 card has suffered a loss, Jutaro Nakao had to pull out due to injury. Taking his place is Korean Jang Yong Kim, that's right, the guy that upset "K-Taro" in Cage Force earlier this month. That means that Katsunori Kikuno goes from facing one of the most experienced fighters in the game, to facing a new talent. Will be interesting to see if Kim can follow up his win in Cage Force.
Also added to the card is Fanjin Son. Son lost his last fight in the Cage Force tournament to "Wicky" Akiyo, he is a Shooto veteran that has had his last 3 fights in Cage Force. Now he is makeing a move to DEEP. He will be taking on another Korean, Chang Son Jon.
That means that all the 3 additions to this DEEP card will be making their DEEP debuts.
Changed:
Jang Yong Kim 2-2-0 vs. 8-1-1 Katsunori Kikuno
Added:
Fanjin Son 5-3-0 vs. 1-0-0 Chang Son Jon

"Lion" Takeshi Inoue 65.0 kg
Hatsu Hioki 64.9 kg

1/4 Sengoku - Antonio Silva Debuting!
Sengoku have announced one more fight for their NYE (on January 4) card. The addition of Antonio Silva strengthes their heavy weight division and it is a very good addition for them.
The EliteXC champion is taking on Pride veteran Yoshihiro "Kiss" Nakao. Nakao's claim to fame is really kissing Heath Herring 3 years ago. Herring preceeded to KO Nakao before the fight had started. Nakao is giving up about 40kg in this fight.
The question now is, how long before we see even more EliteXC fighters coming to Japan? I have a feeling Sengoku is signing up a lot of these fighters lately.

11/29 Shooot Tradition 04 - Warm-Up
Shooto is putting on a really good event tomorrow. The mix of stars and talent should make this one of the better Shooto events this year.
If you want to see what a professional thinks of this event, you should read Jordan Breen's preview on this event here. There is no doubt this will be a good event.
Anyway, here is what I expect from the main card at tomorrow's event. I will be there taking pictures, so might be a bit late with the results...
So Tazawa 8-3-2 vs. 5-0-1 Hiromasa Ogikubo
I am really looking forward to watching Hiromasa Ogikubo, he is still undefeated, Training under Ryota Matsune and Hiroshi Tsuruya in Paraestra Matsudo. He will be a force in the Shooto featherweight division. This time he is facing his toughest opponent yet in So Tazawa.
So Tazawa has been in there with the best of them and he still has a good record. I still think Ogikubo will be too strong on the ground.
Predicition: I am sort of bias in this, as Ogikubo is from my gym, so there is no surprise who I am picking in this fight. I see Ogikubo taking the fight to the ground and getting a decision win.
Hiromasa Ogikubo:
vs. Hiroyuki Tanaka
vs. Yasuhiro Kanayama
vs. Kazuya Tamura
So Tazawa:
vs. Masakatsu Ueda Part 1
vs. Masakatsu Ueda Part 2
vs. Masakatsu Ueda Part 3
Takashi Nakakura 10-2-1 vs. 16-4-2 Bendy Casimir
This could very well end up being fight of the night, both these guys are Shooto champions (Nakakura world champion, Casimir european champion) but there is no title on the line. Maybe because I am used to this in Japan, but I dont care. This is a fight I want to see, even if its not a title fight.
Predicition: Be careful not to underestimate Bendy Casimir in this fight. Nakakura is the favorite and I see him getting the decision, but Casimir was very good in his last fight in Japan.
Takashi Nakakura:
vs. Ray Cooper
vs. Yusuke Endo Round 1
vs. Yusuke Endo Round 2
vs. Yusuke Endo Round 3
vs. Ganjo Tentsuku Part 1
vs. Ganjo Tentsuku Part 2
vs. Mizuto Hirota Round 1
vs. Mizuto Hirota Round 2
vs. Mizuto Hirota Round 3
Bendy Casimir:
vs. Juri Ivlev
vs. Ian Jones
vs. Shinji Sasaki Part 1
vs. Shinji Sasaki Part 2
Hatsu Hioki 16-3-2 vs. 24-12-2 Rumina Sato
This is a fight between 2 of them most popular Shooto fighters. This will really get the crowd going and it should be a good fight. Personally, I would like to see Rumina Sato get this win, but I dont think he will.
Rumina Sato took most of 2006 off to start his own gym, since coming back he has a record of 1-2, in his last 5 he is 1-4. Hioki on the other hand is undefeated in his last 5.
Prediction: As much as I want Rumina Sato to win, I cant see it happening. Hioki will take it, but dont count Rumina off completely.
Rumina Sato:
vs. Charles Taylor
vs. Bao Quach
vs. Augusto Frota
vs. Katsuya Toida
vs. Antonio Carvalho
vs. Ali Mihoubi
vs. Rafael Cordeiro
Hatsu Hioki:
vs. Antonio Carvalho Part 1
vs. Antonio Carvalho Part 2
vs. Antonio Carvalho Part 3
vs. Baret Yoshida
vs. Joe Pearson
vs. Hideki Kadowaki
Hideki Kadowaki 13-7-2 vs. 14-3-0 "Lion" Takeshi Inoue
Hideki Kadowaki is the champion, and in some ways he had a sudden rise to the belt. He is a very experienced fighter, but before he pulled out a "Kadowaki Special" on Rumina Sato I was not expecting to see him in a title fight. Then pieces fell his way, he had some luck and got the title shot. He won a deserved victory against Akitoshi Tamura.
Even if Kadowaki is the defending champion coming in, I think he is also viewed as the underdog here. "Lion" Takeshi has only had 3 losses in his career, he lost he last fight though. "Lion" would like to keep this fight standing, Kadowaki wants "Lion" Takeshi on his back.
Prediction: I am really torn on this, I see it either as an exciting fight where "Lion" picks Kadowaki apart standing OR a fight that goes the distance ending in a draw or decision win to Kadowaki. I am leaning towards a decision to Kadowaki, actually changed my mind since I started writing.
Hideki Kadowaki:
vs. Akitoshi Tamura Part 1
vs. Akitoshi Tamura Part 2
vs. Akitoshi Tamura Part 3
vs. Hatsu Hioki
vs. Naoya Miyamoto
vs. "Wicky" Akiyo Nishiura Part 1
vs. "Wicky" Akiyo Nishiura Part 2
"Lion" Takeshi Inoue:
vs. Antonio Carvalho
vs. Navid Yousefi
vs. Katsuya Toida
vs. Akitoshi Tamura Part 1
vs. Akitoshi Tamura Part 2
vs. Savant Young Part 1
vs. Savant Young Part 2

12/31 Dynamite - Mousasi/Kawajiri Fighting K-1 Rule
I am a bit confused about the fights added today, 2 of the biggest DREAM profiles are fighting K-1 rules...
It was announced earlier this week that Gegard Mousasi will participate in next years ADCC championships. Since that announcement was made, I figured he will be focusing on his grappling... Today it is announced that he will take on the Japanese star Musashi in a K-1 rules fight on NYE.
As if that wasnt enough... Kawajiri is also fighting K-1 rules... He is taking on Kozo Takeda.
This will be something that should draw a crowd, and Mousasi is a good kick-boxer... Either way, I am sure some fans will be disappointed also...

Pancrase 2009 Tour Name!
Every year Pancrase changes their tour name.
In 2008 we have seen a lot of changes in Pancrase, and they have put on a lot of good events under the name "Shining Tour". In 2007 they called their tour "Rising Tour".
For 2009 they have settled on the "Changing Tour". Maybe that indicates more changes to come in 2009? I hope they keep the ring-girls at least.

11/29 Shooot Tradition 04 - Fight Order
Shooto have announced the fight order for their event on Saturday. No big surprise that the title fight between Champion Hideki Kadowaki and "Lion" Takeshi take that honor.
It is a very good card with a mix of very talented fighters, such as Ogikubo and Ueda mixed with a lot of established stars.
Again, I hope that "Mike" Hayakawa adds to his win. I think he deserves it, as he is better than his record shows.

12/10 DEEP 39 - Fights Added
Shoji Maruyama, the former Lightweight King of Pancrase will be fighting AACC's Takafumi Otsuka in what should be a very interesting fight. Shoji had a busy first half of 2008, with 3 fights in 5 months. He won the Pancrase Lightweight title agaist Artur Oumakhanov with a kick to the head. He then decided to vacate the title to move down a weight class. His last fight was in DREAM 3, a decision loss to Yamazaki.
Shoji will be facing Takafumi Otsuka who is a very tough fighter. He is the sort of fighter that never gives up and this should be a good fight between 2 talented fighters.
Also added is the Heavyweight fight between Inoue and Tazawa.
It is shaping up to be a good card again for DEEP. The event is being held in Korakuen Hall.
Added:

Fuuka Kakimoto gets the decision after an extra round! Controversial decision IMO.
11. 59kg: Akifumi Utagawa vs. Ken Shiratori
Utagawa wins by a KO, Shiratori gets KOed with a takedown.
S-Cup Semi-Final:
12. Semi-Final 1: Kenichi Ogata vs. Luiz Azeredo
UNBELIEVABLE!!! Ogata was knocked out, he gets up and Azeredo gets to confident and gets KOed! They are getting the streacher out for Azeredo!
13. Semi-Final 2: Hiroki Shishido vs. Andy Souwer
A very good fight, Souwer is dominating, but goes to decision. Souwer gets the decision 3-0
Non-Tournament Fights:
14. 60kg: Pajunsuk Por. Pramuk vs. Jun Byun Gu (?)
Pajunsuk Por. Pramuk wins by Decision
15. 72kg: Koichi Kikuchi vs. Takaaki Umeno
Umeno gets the decision in a fight that both fighters could barely stand at the end. They both gave everythig in this one. Umeno 3-0
16. Main-Event: S-Cup Tournament Final: Kenichi Ogata vs. Andy Souwer
1st round is finished. Just at the end Ogata is knocked down, but Ogata gets up and is saved by the bell.
Spinning back kick from Souwer has Ogata in trouble. Andy Souwer picked Ogata apart, Souwer wins with a kick to the head and Ogata is done. Awesome fight by Souwer.

Personal Message - Again...
Its been a very busy few weeks for me, personally (wife has had an operation and I am now unemployed). Unfortunately, my blogging has suffered some as a result.
I don't want to go too much into details, but for now I should have more time to spend on my blog. I have also been looking at ways to improve what I do, and there will be some big changes shortly.
My mission has not changed, I want to assist where I can to get information about the MMA events in Japan out. This includes, of course where, when and how type information.
For those who are wondering, I will stick around in Japan for a while. If you have a job in FINANCE (anywhere), you can contact me ;). I have received several offers from other sites, I have taken a lot of time considering to start something like that but have come to the conclusion that it is not an option for me.
There are a couple of things I have been trying to help people with, and there might be an opportunity in the near future.

11/23 ZST 18 - RESULTS
This weekend is a very busy one, there are 3 events in 3 days and yesterday ZST held their event in Differ Ariake. The card had lots more fights on it, but I have only been able to find the results for the main-card.
The main event was the grappling tag-team fight between Imanari/Tokoro and Yano/Yokoyama.
Also on the card was the Sydney Olympics silver medalist, Nagata vs. the veteran Kotani. I have a feeling that Nagata might leave the wrestling shoes at home next time...
Anyway, for the results:
Main-Event - GT-F (grappling) Tag-Team Final:
Makazu Imanari/Hideo Tokoro Def. Takumi Yano/Daisuke Yokoyama by Decision 2-1

11/24 Shoot Boxing - Fights Finalized
Brian Lo-A-Njoe's replacement was announced today, it means a re-suffle of the reserve fights and Kenichi Kanai moves up to take the open spot in the S-Cup Tournament. That leaves an open spot in the reserve matches that is filled by Taiga Yamaguchi.
That means that we should have the same number of fights and it should be an awesome event!
This starts at 4PM Japan time and I will give you LIVE results!

11/24 Shoot Boxing - Brian Lo-A-Njoe Out!
Big disappointment for the fans that were hopeing to see Brian Lo-A-Njoe. It seems there were several requests from the Lo-A-Njoe camp that lead to Brian Lo-A-Njoe being pulled from the card, so not an injury. The Japanese press is reporting that he in addition to not making weight (he requested to come in a little above), requested an increase in fight money.
Luckily, there are 2 good reserve fights, so they should have back up fighters. Lets see what they put together 2 days before the event.

11/22 Shooto GIG North Vol. 3 - ***REMINDER***
***Reminder*** This event is being held today in ZEPP Sapporo. I will update the results as soon as they become available.
Shooto have announced Takuya Mori's opponent for Shooto Gig North on November 22. With that the card is complete.
There is no surprise that Mori is in the main event, this time he will face the veteran Junji Ikoma who is currently ranked #6. If Mori was to win this, it would mean a boost to his ranking, and he would have to be considered an outsider against the 9 years older Ikoma.
It should be a good night of fights, and some of these fighters will get their first taste of victory.
Main Event:
7. Bantam: Takuya Mori 5-3-0 vs. 11-9-3 Junji Ikoma
6. Fly: Tatsuya Yamamoto 1-2-0 vs. 0-1-0 Kazuyuki Yoshida
5. Welter: Hidekazu "Aniki" Asakura 1-4-0 vs. 0-2-1 Taro Kusano
4. Welter: Michiyuki "Aroi" Ishibashi 1-4-1 vs. Tsuneo "Jackknife" Kimura

12/14 HEAT 8 - Differ Ariake **UPDATED**
HEAT is a Nagoya based organization, but they normally make 1 trip a year to Tokyo. This year it will happen on December 14. There will be both kick- and MMA rule fights, and it should be a good event.
On the card we will see the return of Sentoryu, something I am looking forward to, win or lose its always exciting. Also on the card is (I think, Korean names are very hard for me to work out...) Dong Yi Yang. If I am not mistaken this is the guy that ruined Pawel Natsula's return to fighting (it was really the ref that runied it, but Dong got the win).
I have posted a couple of fights here.
****UPDATED: Fights in Heavyweight MMA and Kick Rule Announced****
Sentoryu is fighting Junpei Hamada, and Korean talent Dong Yi Yang is fighting Ryuta Noji in what should be a very exciting fight.

I always buy my tickets from Korakuen Hall ticket office the day I arrive in Tokyo. It's quite easy (I don't speak Japanese) too, just ask for the event (or have a flyer/poster to point to), then they will show you a map and you pick your seat of choice. I bought a ticket from a LAWSONS machine once for PRIDE and got a dud seat up the back.
