The K-1 Koshien 2011 East Japan Tournament kicked off this year's K-1 Koshien events on Saturday, as top finishers Shuto Miyazaki and Minoru Kimura advanced to the November 3rd final.
The rest of the K-1 Koshien 2011 Final will be brought together with top qualifiers from the upcoming West Japan Tournament on September 10th and finalists from last year's K-1 Koshien final. The East Japan Tournament holds a certain distinction, as K-1 Koshien 2010 champion Shoei Hareyama came out of the East Japan bracket last year.
There were 41 fighters and 39 bouts to be had when the competitors took to the ring on Saturday. In the end, 2010 competitor Minoru Kimura and newcomer Shuto Miyazaki found themselves through to the final. Kimura, who improved upon his showing in the East Japan 2010 tournament, was eliminated in the opening round of the K-1 Koshien 2010 Final.
