Looks more like a Krush card tbh.

It is essentially a Krush+ card with higher production value.
Nothing wrong with that though, especially considering this event wasn't even scheduled until September I think.

Looks more like a Krush card tbh. All Survival Wars cards are Krush cards effectively. K-1 plans out 1.5 years in advance and grabs Korakuen every month or so in that span. When they have a big card like Championships or K'Festa on the horizon with no clear title challengers they add on some title eliminators on a Krush card and call it Survival Wars. Pretty sure Hinata has some sort of contract stipulation that ensures he's only on K-1 fights too so this helps with that. Expect Saikyo to be fast tracked towards the K-1 57.5kg title if he wins this one (which he almost certainly will). Gunji might be given a title shot against Takei if he wins this. If he loses I expect Terado to get the shot. Murakoshi is a great signing. He's given Tenshin his toughest fight yet (in the second going) and defeated Ogasawara (who has a win over Wanchalong)

I'm going to be flying to Asia, where I could actually watch this, so I won't be able to watch this. I hope Hinata wins though.

Full Results Hinata defeats Hirono Yu by Majority Decision (2-0). Tsubakihara Tatsuya defeats Saikyo Haruma by Majority Decision (2-0). Gunji Taito defeats Oiwa Shota by Unanimous Decision. Murakoshi Yuta defeats Ashizawa Ryusei by Majority Decision (2-0). Wajima Hiromi defeats Yamazaki Yoichi by KO R3. Sugimoto Hitoshi defeats RUI by KO R2. Shinohara Yuto defeats Suzuki Hayato by Split Decision.
Undercard FUMIYA defeats Masanobu by KO R1. "Bazooka" Koki defeats Takeuchi Yuki by KO R1.
With this victory, Hinata is the official challenger to fight Allazov for the 70kg title in March. I don't see Hinata having much success there though.
Additionally, there was some sort of champions interview starring Takei Yoshiki, Kubo Yuta and Noiri Masaaki and a public workout bit with Takeru and Taiga to hype up their fight in March.
All in all a pretty good holiday season snack.
