Taiei Kin & Minowa Return! A Sol Kwon & Hibiki Clash

New fights have been announced for the June 5th HEAT18 event in Osaka, Japan.

3rd generation HEAT Welterweight champion and top Korean Lightweight A Sol Kwon relinquished his title to focus on Lightweight and aim at becoming the HEAT Lightweight champion. He will take on Shooto ROTY runner-up and 2011 Pancrase LWGP participant Hibiki Tamura. Tamura lost a close fight to ISAO in the quarterfinals of the Pancrase GP. This looks like a well-matched fight on paper.

The legendary Kin Taiei will return to take on Shin Nihon Kickboxing Federation’s 1st ranked Kuniyoshi in a HEAT Kick Rules Heavyweight fight.

Previously notable announced fights for the card are Minowaman making his MMA return against Carlos Toyota and Kazuma Sone vs. Mamoru Uoi.
