All but two fighters successfully passed the scales for this weekend’s K-1 ReBIRTH 2.

Almost all kickboxers participating in K-1 ReBIRTH 2 managed to make weight, setting the stage for K-1's last event of the year. At the same press conference and weigh-in event, K-1 producer Carlos Kikuta announced that "K-1 WORLD MAX" will be held next year on March 20. 

ReBIRTH 2 will take place this weekend on December 9 at the Edion Arena in Osaka. Despite the lack of an international broadcasting deal, the event will still feature multiple world title fights including Hasan Toy, Toma Kuroda, Akihiro Kaneko, and KANA.

In the headlining bout, Hiromi Wajima and Ouyang Feng, the best 70 KG fighters in Asia, will clash for the K-1 Super Welterweight Championship. The winner will firmly establish himself among the top fighters in the sport's most stacked division.

The event will exclusively stream on Abema on December 9 at 12:30 PM JST.
