Pancrase have finished their Changing Tour earlier today. It was done in Differ Ariake and there were 2 title fights on the card.

A new Middleweight King of Pancrase was crowned as Kanai defeated Takeuchi in a very close decision. In the other title fight Ryo Kawamura defended his title against Shunsuke Inoue.

Upset of the night was Takuma Ishii who defeated Takuma Eizumi, who really needs to look at what he can do to turn things around.
