Pancrase 313 and 314 might have been cancelled but Pancrase 315 is going ahead. The event is set for Shinkiba Studio Coast on May 31st and three fights were added to the card this week.
In the lightweight division rising contender Kosuke Kindaichi (9-2-2) has been matched with Sung Kwon Kim (4-5). The Japanese fighter is riding a five fight winning streak that culminated in a stoppage win over Takashi Matsuoka at Pancrase 301.
The Korean Top Team representative has spent virtually his entire career fighting on the road. Kim has only competed once in his homeland as a professional and is coming off back to back decision losses in Russia.
The other two fights added to the card this week are in the strawweight division. Teppei Maeyama (5-7) has been matched with Tatsuki Ozaki (8-6) while Hiroaki Ijima (12-13-3) takes on Yuta Miyazawa (7-3).
As previously announced Pancrase 315 will feature a flyweight fight pitting top contenders Ryuichi Miki and Yusuke Ogikubo together. Meanwhile Yuta Nakamura faces Masayuki Kikuiri in the lightweight division.
Earlier this week it was announced that Pancrase 313 and 314 had been cancelled. It appears these events will never happen with May 31st the next date in the promotion’s calendar.
