The 245th Pancrase! Yuki Kondo Still Charging Forward

Pancrase legend Yuki Kondo will look to get his second win in a row when he faces fellow veteran Seiki Ryo in a Welterweight fight at “PANCRASE 245″ on February 3rd.

As for other notables announced for the event thus far, Shingo Suzuki will take on Sojiro Orui in the final of the tournament to decide the next Welterweight King of Pancrase challenger and undefeated-in-Pancrase Tadahiro Harada will battle a yet to be announced AKA opponent in one of the three “AKA vs. Pancrasist 3 vs. 3″ fights (PANCRASE 246 in March will include a “Wand Fight Team vs. Pancrasist 3 vs. 3″ series as well).

Harada’s record in 2012 is 6-0 with 5 finishes and he won the 18th Pancrase Neo-Blood Tournament (Featherweight) this year as well, all three fights by submission.

Loving these challenge series, hopefully we'll see some new stars made in Pancrase soon.

Kondo and Ishikawa needs to happen after this fight as well and hopefully Suzuki has a more definitive victory this time around so it'll make a possible title fight with Sato look much more attractive.
