A featherweight fight between Issei Tamura and Hirotaka Nakada has been added to the Pancrase 321 card. The event is set for Shinkiba Studio Coast on May 30th.

As usual the promotion took to Twitter to announce the fight:

Tamura (13-11) is a UFC veteran. The 37 year old is coming off a KO loss to Akira Okada at Pancrase 319 last year.

Nakada (2-1) made his amateur debut in 2019 and only turned pro last year. He is 13 years younger than Tamura and is coming off a stoppage win over Tatsuhiko Iwamoto at Road to ONE 7 last month.

As previously announced the card will be headlined by a featherweight title fight with Isao Kobayashi putting his belt on the line against Taichi Nakajima. The champion is riding a five fight winning streak while the challenger is coming off a win over UFC veteran Yoshinori Horie.

Meanwhile one of the most experienced fighters in the sport will be in welterweight action. UFC and ONE Championship veteran Yuki Kondo has been matched with Yoshinori Suzuki.

Two of the promotion’s top strawweights will go head to head when Ryo Hatta faces Yuta Miyazawa. In the flyweight division multiple time boxing world challenger Raika Emiko meets Nori Date.

Pancrase 321 will also feature both semi finals of the four man flyweight tournament. Masatatsu Ueda has been matched with Satoru Enomoto while Toru Ogawa takes on Taiki Akiba.

A lightweight fight between Koshi Matsumoto and Akira Okada is also on the card. At featherweight the undefeated Kouki Nakagawa makes his promotional debut against Daisuke Endo.
