10/13 Shooto - Kitazawa Townhall *REMINDER*

Just a reminder of this event. It is happening in Kitazawa Townhall on Monday (which is a public holiday in Japan) and it should be a good event.

One change has happened to the card though, this featherweight fight is taken off due to Yamauchi suffering a rib injury:
Makoto Yamauchi 1-0-0 vs. 1-4-2 Nobuhiro "Mike" Hayakawa
Which is a shame, but there is still good talent on this card.

The complete card and fight order:
Bantam: Junji Ikoma 10-9-3 vs. 5-3-0 Yusei Shimokawa
Rookie Tourn Light: Takumi Ota 4-1-1 vs. 1-0-0 Issei Tamura
Rookie Tourn Welter: Kazuya Satomoto 4-1-0 vs. 1-0-0 Ikuo Usuda
Welter: Shinobu Miura 1-3-3 vs. 1-2-1 Koichi Taguchi
Middle: Shin Kochiwa 0-1-1 vs. 0-1-0 Taijiro Iseki
