4/5 Cage Force 06 - Fights Cancelled, Card a mess

Well, some bad news regarding the Cage Force card. I am translating it now and will see if I can make some sense out of the news.

First off, it seems as though the Featherweight tournament fight between Adrian Pang and Armando Sanchez is cancelled due to the sponsors not being able to fulfil their financial commitments.

Then, Katsuya Toida and Yuji Hoshino has gotten injured during training. That means that Antonio Carvalho and Daichi Fujiwara are currently without an opponent. That leaves only 2 Bantamweight tournament fights on the card.

Antonio Carvalho and Daichi Fujiwara is hopeing to get a fight in this event. I will update the card and come back with how it looks.

As a comfort, they are adding 2 fights, but these are fighters I have not heard about.

I am sure this is a huge dissapointment to fighters, fans and promotor. But just to clearify, I have tickets and will be going to this event. I am really disapointed that they have taken a fight off the card, that leaves the featherweight tournament a semi-finalist down...

It should still be a good event and I am excited about the fights that are left on the card. I really hope they can get Antonio Carvalho an opponent!
