Two former champs made successful returns from long layoffs as former Shooto 115-lbs champion and Grabaka striking coach Rambaa "M16" Somdet made a successful comeback from injury, easily besting Ryota Uozumi while former two-division Deep champ Dokonjonosuke Mishima returned from a two year absence to best Grabaka grappling ace Takeshi Yamazaki by a comfortable unanimous decision.
Also on the card, Sengoku veteran and Grabaka coach Yuki Sasaki snapped a five-fight losing streak, knocking down Hidetaka Monma once in each of the three rounds and controlling the rest of the bout to take an impressive unanimous decision and two-time Pancrase title contender Kei Yamamiya had his way with Pride veteran Yoshihisa Yamamoto, battering the pro-wrestler with straight punches to take a unanimous decision.
In a grappling rules bout, Ikuhisa "Minowaman" Minowa was over-powered out surprising out-grappled by comedian Bobby Ologun, finally giving up mount just as the bell rang to signify the end of the bout. With no judges, the bout was ruled a draw.
