3/28 HEAT 9 - Fights Announced

A few of the fights on this card have been ready for a while, but there have been some additions outside the tournaments too. With 4 days left, this card shoule be just about final.

If you are in Nagoya, I would strongly suggest going out to this one! There are some really good fighters on the card and it should be a fun event. The event is taking place in Nagoya.

There has been a major change to the heavyweight tournament, Dong Yi Yang, who defeated Ryuta Noji in the previous round is out due to an injury sustained during practice. Noji is stepping in to take his spot against Sentoryu, though I think the loss of Yang is bad for the tournament, Sentoryu vs. Ryuta Noji will be a very entertaining match-up.
