  1. [7][8][9][10] Kobayashi landed kicks on Ishioka at the start of the fight. Ishioka countered with punches to the face and the fight became a striking exchange between the two, which ended in a standing count for debutant pro-wrestler Kobayashi.[9][10] Kobayashi tried once again the kicks and Ishioka responded with punches which gave Kobayashi a second standing count. Shortly after, Ishioka finished the fight with punches.[9][10]
  2. [7][8][9][10] Takeda was dominated during the first round by the striking ability of Yamanaka, who effectively used her height advantage, landing low-kicks and punches. At the end of round one, Takeda tried to apply a heel hook which Yamanaka avoided and countered with more strikes.[9] The next round was also dominated by Yamanaka, who made Takeda take a standing count a little before being dropped with a one-two combination that forced the referee to stop the fight.[9][10]
  3. [7][8][9][10] Takimoto landed punches and kicks in the first round, until Tamada took the fight to the ground, where she controlled position. Returned to their feet, Takimoto once again took then offense but Tamada took her down again.[9][10] In the second round, Tamada landed punching combinations and, combined with take-downs, Tamada controlled the second round, earning a unanimous decision victory over Takimoto.[9][10]
  4. [7][8][9][10] In the first round, pro wrestler Oikawa threw some jabs which managed to create some distance until Aoki started to counterattack with hooks and straights, and eventually Aoki dropped Oikawa with a right hook.[9][10] During the course of the second round, Aoki landed kicks and knees that made the referee give Oikawa two standing counts. Oikawa pulled guard and attempted to get an armbar but Aoki defended and applied an armbar herself, forcing Oikawa to submit.[9][10]
  5. [7][8][9][10] Ozawa started the fight with looping punches that damaged Yoshida and Yoshida countered with punches and kicks.[9][10] After Yoshida got a take-down and Ozawa reversed it, the referee stopped the fight to check Ozawa's nose, which had a non-bloody liquid streaming. The flow could not be stopped and the doctor called the bout, giving the TKO victory to Yoshida.[9][10]
  6. [7][8][9][10] Starting with a flying knee, Sugiyama attacked Shiho with punches and kicks for the whole fight, while Shiho was only able to do some sweeps to try to defend.[9][10] After the fourth standing count, the referee stopped the fight.[9][10]
  7. [9][10] At the beginning of the fight, Tomita exchanged strikes with Harumi, landing effective punches and kicks to Harumi's arms and body.[9][10] As Harumi responded, Tomita took the fight to the ground where she held the advantage for the rest of round 1.[9] In the second round, Tomita countered a take-down with an armbar, forcing Harumi to submit.[9][10]
