Selection method: Built from the daily selector's selected lead article (prtimes#1606508) (scores: official_count_verified=0, official_count_raw=0, official_attribution_unverified_count=0); REVIEW_ONLY run — this file is a local draft. Written under the "PR TIMES first-party material clause": releases from a single issuer (the K-1 Executive Committee) are that issuer's first-party material; facts are quoted as stated, sourcing is labeled neutrally, and nothing here is promotion or endorsement. Honest timeline declaration: weigh-in = July 19, 2026; the event = July 20, 2026, already concluded; this card's publication date = July 21, 2026 — the card is written as a completed event (weigh-in release as the anchor, post-event report as the results cross-check), not as a preview. Editorial angle (Shirakawa Miyabi, depth): the lead release's phrase "distribution decided on five overseas streaming platforms worldwide" is not a one-off announcement — the same sentence and the same platform-by-territory table appear verbatim in the weigh-in releases for GENKI (April 11), REVENGE (May 31), and DONTAKU (July 20), each dated per event. This card pins down that "standing architecture" by laying the three documents side by side, then dissects the supply chain that pipeline carries (results feeding directly into the September 12 WORLD MAX) and the verifiable facts of roster and strategy globalization. All inference stays within what the side-by-side documents show; no number absent from the source texts is generated. No Wikidata Q identifiers are attached (no registry verification was performed this run; when in doubt, leave it out).

TL;DR

Per the K-1 Executive Committee release (prtimes#1606508, published July 20, 2026, 06:24 JST): "ECO Shinrai Service Co., Ltd. PRESENTS K-1 DONTAKU 2026" was held July 20, 2026 (Mon., holiday) at Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall B; at the day-before weigh-in (July 19), "all fighters except one cleared the weigh-in" — the exception being Yuto Kawamori, who missed the official weigh-in due to poor condition; his opponent's slot changed to KOTARO, the bout was recast as a K-1 super lightweight match in Part 2, Bout 4, with the official weigh-in scheduled for event day, July 20 (per the release). [F-001] In addition to the ABEMA broadcast in Japan, the event was streamed on five overseas platforms: ABEMA Live (19 target countries/territories, including Taiwan), UdarTV (Russia and 5 other countries), Combat Sports Network (CSN; Australia/New Zealand), FightKlub (Poland), and StreamTicket (all other countries and territories, PPV). [F-002] The next-day post-event report (prtimes#1619306, published July 21, 2026 JST): titles changed hands in two divisions — Hikari Suematsu beat Veronica Rodriguez by extra-round decision to take the women's atomweight belt (the release calls it "third time lucky"), and Neigo Katono knocked out Kazunari Ishii in Round 2 to take the bantamweight belt [F-004]; SAHO won a 3-0 decision for her third title defense, and Tian Tarzan scored a first-round KO of K-Jee, "extending his unbeaten record to 34 wins in 34 fights" (release wording quoted as-is) [F-005]; in the -70kg world final qualifiers, Di Vara and Pankhurst each won 3-0 decisions and advanced to the September 12 "K-1 WORLD MAX 2026" main event [F-006]; 11 WORLD MAX participants were also announced in the ring that day (per the report). [F-007] The depth anchor: the identical "ABEMA domestic + five overseas platforms" configuration and identical territory tables appear verbatim in the April 11 GENKI weigh-in release [F-008], the May 31 REVENGE weigh-in release [F-010], and the July 20 DONTAKU release [F-002] — three different venues (Yoyogi No. 2 Gymnasium / Korakuen Hall / Marine Messe Fukuoka), one unchanged distribution architecture. Sourcing pinned down: 11 of the 13 sources are PR TIMES releases from the same issuer, the K-1 Executive Committee (same-origin, not independent); the card has zero verified official anchors; all figures are self-reported in the respective releases, not independently verified by this site, and must not be treated as official endorsement. [J-001]

Body

Format and sourcing (lead section): PR TIMES first-party material, 11 of 13 sources from one issuer, zero verified official anchors

This card's anchor is the K-1 Executive Committee's PR TIMES release with the DONTAKU 2026 day-before weigh-in results (prtimes#1606508, published July 20, 2026, 06:24 JST — publication times are JST conversions of the UTC timestamps in this site's database metadata, as noted; the same convention applies to every source below). Under the "PR TIMES first-party material clause," every fact in this card has the status "as stated in the issuer's release (PR TIMES release)." The K-1 Executive Committee is the event organizer, not a public authority, and its releases carry promotional intent; this card quotes them as stated, labels sourcing neutrally, and does not endorse the issuer. Verified official anchors: zero (official_count_verified=0); see the Sourcing Caveats section. [J-001]

Timeline pinned first: weigh-in = July 19, 2026; event = July 20, 2026, already concluded; this card's publication date = July 21, 2026. The card is written as a completed event: the weigh-in release (prtimes#1606508) is the anchor and the next-day post-event report (prtimes#1619306, published July 21, 2026 JST) is the results cross-check — both are K-1 Executive Committee releases, i.e., same-origin, and do not independently corroborate each other (see Sourcing Caveats).

Main facts: "all fighters except one" cleared the day-before weigh-in; the event took place July 20, 2026, at Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall B

Per the lead release: the day-before weigh-in for "ECO Shinrai Service Co., Ltd. PRESENTS K-1 DONTAKU 2026," held July 20, 2026 (Mon., holiday) at Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall B, was conducted and "all fighters except one cleared the weigh-in" (prtimes#1606508). [F-001] The "one" exception = Yuto Kawamori, originally scheduled to face Ayumu at lightweight, who missed the official weigh-in due to poor condition; the opponent slot changed to KOTARO (RICE GATE), the bout was recast as a K-1 super lightweight contest in Part 2, Bout 4, and its official weigh-in was moved to event day, July 20 (per the release). (prtimes#1606508)

Key title-fight weigh-in figures (transcribed from the release) [F-003]: K-1 cruiserweight = Tian Tarzan (champion / Netherlands) 89.2kg vs. K-Jee 89.3kg; K-1 WORLD GP bantamweight title match = Kazunari Ishii (champion) 53.0kg vs. Neigo Katono (challenger) 52.9kg; women's flyweight title match = SAHO (champion) 51.9kg vs. Raiza Silva (challenger / Brazil) 51.9kg; women's atomweight title match = Veronica Rodriguez (champion / Mexico) 44.6kg vs. Hikari Suematsu (challenger) 44.7kg. The release also records the matchmaking backstory: Tarzan was originally set for a title defense against Lucas Achterberg (Germany), which fell through due to Achterberg's injury; K-Jee, who had been scheduled to fight Mahmoud Sattari, stepped up as Tarzan's opponent (prtimes#1606508).

Five overseas platforms: DONTAKU's platform-by-territory table (transcribed)

The lead release states: "in addition to the ABEMA broadcast in Japan, distribution through five overseas streaming platforms worldwide has been decided" — "in addition to ABEMA Live and UdarTV, which have carried the streams so far," Combat Sports Network (CSN) for combat-sports fans in Oceania, the major Polish sports channel FightKlub in Poland, and, for all other countries and territories, PPV streaming on the ticketed live-streaming platform StreamTicket (prtimes#1606508). [F-002]

Target territories as stated in the DONTAKU release (transcribed; for the July 20, 2026 event):

| Platform | Target countries/territories (as stated) | |---|---| | ABEMA Live | United States / Canada / Mexico / Brazil / United Kingdom / France / Italy / Spain / South Korea / Taiwan / Thailand / Philippines / Indonesia / Macau / Singapore / Malaysia / Hong Kong / Australia / New Zealand (19 countries/territories) | | UdarTV | Russia / Armenia / Belarus / Georgia / Kazakhstan / Kyrgyzstan | | Combat Sports Network (CSN) | Australia / New Zealand | | FightKlub | Poland | | StreamTicket | All countries and territories other than the above (PPV) |

("19 countries/territories" is this card's item count of the stated list; the list itself is transcribed verbatim. Domestic broadcast = ABEMA Fighting Channel, July 20, 2026.) (prtimes#1606508)

Results (post-event cross-check): two title changes, SAHO's third defense, Tarzan's "34-0," final qualifiers settled

Results as recorded in the post-event report (prtimes#1619306, published July 21, 2026, 07:37 JST) [F-004][F-005][F-006]:

After the event, the ABEMA Fighting Channel archive stream was live (as stated in the post-event report, as of July 21, 2026 JST); fight videos were also available on the official K-1 YouTube channel (per the report). (prtimes#1619306)

Deep dive 1 (analysis): the "five overseas platforms" is not one night's news — it is a standing architecture used at three consecutive events

Read alone, the lead release's headline phrase "distribution decided on five overseas streaming platforms worldwide" looks like a single-event promo. But laying out the K-1 Executive Committee's own releases in this site's library along a timeline, the same sentence and the same platform-by-territory table appear three times: the April 11 GENKI (Yoyogi National Stadium No. 2 Gymnasium) weigh-in release carries the same sentence plus the table — ABEMA Live in 19 countries/territories (including Taiwan) / UdarTV in 6 countries / CSN for Australia-New Zealand / FightKlub for Poland / StreamTicket PPV everywhere else (prtimes#90129, 2026-04-11 JST) [F-008]; the May 31 REVENGE (Korakuen Hall) weigh-in release carries the same five platforms and same territory configuration (the CSN row is written in the order New Zealand / Australia) (prtimes#559002, 2026-05-31 JST) [F-010]; and the July 20 DONTAKU (Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall B) lead release carries the full table again (prtimes#1606508) [F-002]. The three events differ in venue scale and location — a Tokyo gymnasium, Korakuen Hall, a Fukuoka exhibition hall — yet the overseas distribution architecture is verbatim identical. This "standing architecture" finding extends only as far as what the three documents show side by side: all three are from the same issuer, and this card does not infer contract structures, revenue scale, or applicability to future events (each release records the streaming decision for its own event). [J-003]

Deep dive 2: the supply chain this pipeline carries — DONTAKU's results feed directly into the September 12 WORLD MAX

DONTAKU was not an isolated night. Its two -70kg final-qualifier winners (Di Vara, Pankhurst) directly earned, per the report, places in the September 12 "K-1 WORLD MAX 2026" main event (Yoyogi National Stadium No. 2 Gymnasium) [F-006]; in the ring that day, producer Genki Sudo announced 11 WORLD MAX participants — Stoyan Koprivlenski (Bulgaria), Jonas Salsicha (Brazil), Daryl Verdonk (Netherlands/Indonesia), Zora Akopyan (Armenia), Alphousseyni Camara (Senegal/France), Jonathan Aiulu (Samoa), Kacper Muszynski (Poland), Serhii Adamchuk (Ukraine), JayJay Maurice (Netherlands), Jhonys Coliseu (Brazil), Vladimir Turaev (Russia) (per the post-event report) [F-007]. Before that, the July 8 press conference had announced five bouts — four title matches plus a heavyweight feature (Ryota Ishida vs. Rui Okubo, Yuzuki Satomi vs. Kiyomitsu Samuel Nagasawa, Akihiro Kaneko vs. Riamu, Taio Asahisa vs. Alassane Kamara, Stoica vs. Baklanov) (prtimes#1373796, 2026-07-09 JST) [F-013]; the July 16 press conference announced the second wave (Kenta Hayashi named as the opponent for Yuta Murakoshi's retirement bout; Mona Kimura vs. Marine Nicol of Switzerland; Tomoya Yokoyama recognized as full champion after Remy Parra vacated the super featherweight belt, with a defense at the event, opponent being finalized) (prtimes#1566987, 2026-07-17 JST) [F-014]. And DONTAKU's own two -70kg final-qualifier bouts (Di Vara vs. Sanchez, Karapiperis vs. Pankhurst) and the entry of reverse-import fighter Hatanaka had already been made public in the June 5 additional-card announcement (prtimes#717651, 2026-06-05 JST) [F-018]. In other words, what flowed through that distribution pipeline on July 20 was itself the direct supply line for the September 12 event — final-qualifier winners, championship pathways, and roster announcements all completed in a single night (all per the respective releases).

Deep dive 3: globalization of roster and strategy — nationality spread, reverse imports, FIGHTING NETWORK, and one fighter's own "world strategy"

The DONTAKU weigh-in list alone spans, as stated, fighters from the Netherlands, Iran, Armenia, Brazil, Mexico, Greece, Australia, Italy, Spain, Thailand, and Japan & Philippines, among others [F-003][F-006] (prtimes#1606508). At the organizer level: the July 16 press conference unveiled "K-1 FIGHTING NETWORK" — 10 events in India plus 10 in Cambodia (20 in total) over the coming year, plus a decision to hold an event in South Korea with a planned Japan-Korea dual meet; producer Genki Sudo is quoted in the release: "We aim to produce an Indian and a Cambodian K-1 champion within two years" (prtimes#1566987) [F-014]. At the fighter level: Mona Kimura, in her April 3 interview release, said in her own words "This is Mona's world strategy" and "I want my fights streamed overseas even more!" (prtimes#44984, 2026-04-03 JST) [F-015]; the GENKI post-event report records her K-1 debut as a 3-0 decision shutout win and states "14 million views of her fight videos on the official K-1 YouTube (overseas-facing) alone" (as stated, as of the April 12, 2026 JST publication) (prtimes#92630) [F-009]. Historical cross-reference (each event dated): at the April 11 GENKI, all three title matches were won by Brazilians (Machado, Silva, Salsicha), with 8 KO finishes across the 18 bouts (prtimes#92630) [F-009]; at the May 31 REVENGE, Ryota Ishida and Tomoya Yokoyama each won belts by first-round KO (featherweight title; interim super featherweight title), with 4 KO finishes across 8 bouts (prtimes#573855, 2026-06-01 JST) [F-011].

FAQ

Q: What is K-1 DONTAKU 2026, and what were the results?

Per K-1 Executive Committee releases: held July 20, 2026 (Mon., holiday) at Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall B; the post-event report (published July 21, 2026 JST) records title changes in two divisions — Hikari Suematsu beat Veronica Rodriguez by extra-round decision for the women's atomweight belt (the release calls it "third time lucky"), and Neigo Katono knocked out Kazunari Ishii in Round 2 for the bantamweight belt; SAHO won a 3-0 decision for her third defense; Tian Tarzan knocked out K-Jee in Round 1, with the release stating he "extended his unbeaten record to 34 wins in 34 fights."

All results are self-reported in the organizer's post-event report and not independently verified by this site (prtimes#1619306).

Q: On which platforms could the event be watched overseas?

The five overseas platforms as stated: ABEMA Live (United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Spain, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, Macau, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand), UdarTV (Russia, Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan), CSN (Australia/New Zealand), FightKlub (Poland), and StreamTicket (all other countries and territories, PPV); domestically, the ABEMA Fighting Channel, with the archive stream live after the event (as stated in the July 21, 2026 JST post-event report).

The scope is what the releases state as decided; actual delivery status has not been checked by this site (prtimes#1606508, prtimes#1619306).

Q: Was this overseas streaming setup a one-off arrangement for DONTAKU?

No — it was not a first appearance: the identical "ABEMA domestic + five overseas platforms" configuration and identical territory tables appear verbatim in three K-1 Executive Committee releases — the April 11 GENKI weigh-in release (2026-04-11 JST), the May 31 REVENGE weigh-in release (2026-05-31 JST), and the July 20 DONTAKU release (2026-07-20 JST) — each tied to its own event; three different venues (Yoyogi No. 2 / Korakuen Hall / Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall B), one unchanged distribution architecture.

All three are the organizer's own releases (same origin); this card states only what the side-by-side documents show and does not infer contract structures (prtimes#90129, prtimes#559002, prtimes#1606508).

Q: How does DONTAKU relate to the September 12 K-1 WORLD MAX 2026?

Per the respective releases: DONTAKU's -70kg world final-qualifier winners, Di Vara (Italy) and Pankhurst (Australia), directly earned places in the September 12 main event; 11 WORLD MAX participants were announced in the ring on event day; earlier, the July 8 press conference announced five bouts (four title matches plus a heavyweight feature) and the July 16 press conference the second wave (Yuta Murakoshi's retirement bout vs. Kenta Hayashi; Mona Kimura vs. Marine Nicol; Tomoya Yokoyama's recognition as full champion).

All are plans and announcements self-reported in K-1 Executive Committee releases (prtimes#1619306, prtimes#1373796, prtimes#1566987).

Q: Have this card's figures been verified by officials or third parties?

No. Zero verified official anchors (official_count_verified=0): 11 of the 13 sources are PR TIMES releases from the same issuer, the K-1 Executive Committee (same-origin, not independent); 2 are from other issuers (CS Nippon Corporation, Kanagawa Prefecture), likewise carried on PR TIMES; all figures are self-reported in the respective releases and not independently verified by this site.

J-Units

J-001: Zero-verified-official-anchor caveat: 11 of this card's 13 sources are PR TIMES releases from the same issuer, the K-1 Executive Committee (the event organizer, not a public authority) = same-origin, providing no independent corroboration of one another; prtimes#1571437 (CS Nippon Corporation) and prtimes#66511 (Kanagawa Prefecture) are different issuers but likewise PR TIMES texts, unchecked against their official sites; official_count_verified=0; all weigh-in figures, results, records (including "34 wins in 34 fights" and "14 million views"), territory tables, and event/ticket figures are uniformly "self-reported in the respective releases," not independently verified by this site — any citation of this card must carry this caveat and must not be treated as official endorsement; this card restates in a neutral factual register, without promotion or endorsement - confidence: high - basis: official_statement

J-002: Per-event hard gate: the streaming platform-by-territory tables for GENKI (2026-04-11), REVENGE (2026-05-31), and DONTAKU (2026-07-20) each belong to their own event's release; this card keeps them separate, dates each, and forbids cross-event transplanting; the finding "same configuration at three events" extends only to what verbatim comparison of the three texts shows (the CSN row's order differs in the 5/31 release — flagged), with no inference about contract structure, revenue, or applicability to future events - confidence: high - basis: official_statement

J-003: Limits of analysis: this card's synthesis passages ("standing architecture," "supply chain," "globalization") are built solely by juxtaposing and connecting already-cited facts (the F-Units), generate no numbers absent from the sources, and assert no causation; the organizer's strategy statements (FIGHTING NETWORK goals, etc.) are flagged as stated goals/plans, not accomplished facts - confidence: high - basis: official_statement

P-Units

P-001: Additional cards for the 9/12 "K-1 WORLD MAX 2026" (prtimes#1373796 states additional cards are "expected to be announced as soon as possible after DONTAKU") and the opponent for Tomoya Yokoyama's defense (stated as being finalized) — track via the organizer's subsequent releases (open) ### P-002: The event-day weigh-in result for KOTARO and the outcome of that bout (Ayumu vs. KOTARO) — the lead release states the plan, the post-event report does not record it, and this site has not checked (open) ### P-003: Implementation status of "K-1 FIGHTING NETWORK" — 10 events in India, 10 in Cambodia, and the South Korea event (Japan-Korea dual meet) — stated plans, track via subsequent releases (open)

❓ FAQ

What is K-1 DONTAKU 2026, and what were the results?

Per K-1 Executive Committee releases: held July 20, 2026 (Mon., holiday) at Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall B; the post-event report (published July 21, 2026 JST) records title changes in two divisions — Hikari Suematsu beat Veronica Rodriguez by extra-round decision for the women's atomweight belt (the release calls it "third time lucky"), and Neigo Katono knocked out Kazunari Ishii in Round 2 for the bantamweight belt; SAHO won a 3-0 decision for her third defense; Tian Tarzan knocked out K-Jee in Round 1, with the release stating he "extended his unbeaten record to 34 wins in 34 fights." All results are self-reported in the organizer's post-event report and not independently verified by this site (prtimes#1619306).

On which platforms could the event be watched overseas?

The five overseas platforms as stated: ABEMA Live (United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Spain, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, Macau, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand), UdarTV (Russia, Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan), CSN (Australia/New Zealand), FightKlub (Poland), and StreamTicket (all other countries and territories, PPV); domestically, the ABEMA Fighting Channel, with the archive stream live after the event (as stated in the July 21, 2026 JST post-event report). The scope is what the releases state as decided; actual delivery status has not been checked by this site (prtimes#1606508, prtimes#1619306).

Was this overseas streaming setup a one-off arrangement for DONTAKU?

No — it was not a first appearance: the identical "ABEMA domestic + five overseas platforms" configuration and identical territory tables appear verbatim in three K-1 Executive Committee releases — the April 11 GENKI weigh-in release (2026-04-11 JST), the May 31 REVENGE weigh-in release (2026-05-31 JST), and the July 20 DONTAKU release (2026-07-20 JST) — each tied to its own event; three different venues (Yoyogi No. 2 / Korakuen Hall / Marine Messe Fukuoka Hall B), one unchanged distribution architecture. All three are the organizer's own releases (same origin); this card states only what the side-by-side documents show and does not infer contract structures (prtimes#90129, prtimes#559002, prtimes#1606508).

How does DONTAKU relate to the September 12 K-1 WORLD MAX 2026?

Per the respective releases: DONTAKU's -70kg world final-qualifier winners, Di Vara (Italy) and Pankhurst (Australia), directly earned places in the September 12 main event; 11 WORLD MAX participants were announced in the ring on event day; earlier, the July 8 press conference announced five bouts (four title matches plus a heavyweight feature) and the July 16 press conference the second wave (Yuta Murakoshi's retirement bout vs. Kenta Hayashi; Mona Kimura vs. Marine Nicol; Tomoya Yokoyama's recognition as full champion). All are plans and announcements self-reported in K-1 Executive Committee releases (prtimes#1619306, prtimes#1373796, prtimes#1566987).

Have this card's figures been verified by officials or third parties?

No. Zero verified official anchors (official_count_verified=0): 11 of the 13 sources are PR TIMES releases from the same issuer, the K-1 Executive Committee (same-origin, not independent); 2 are from other issuers (CS Nippon Corporation, Kanagawa Prefecture), likewise carried on PR TIMES; all figures are self-reported in the respective releases and not independently verified by this site. Any citation of this card must carry the caveat "self-reported in press releases, not independently verified by this site" (see the Sourcing Caveats section). ---

🧠 編輯判斷（J-Units）

Zero-verified-official-anchor caveat: 11 of this card's 13 sources are PR TIMES releases from the same issuer, the K-1 Executive Committee (the event organizer, not a public authority) = same-origin, providing no independent corroboration of one another; prtimes#1571437 (CS Nippon Corporation) and prtimes#66511 (Kanagawa Prefecture) are different issuers but likewise PR TIMES texts, unchecked against their official sites; official_count_verified=0; all weigh-in figures, results, records (including "34 wins in 34 fights" and "14 million views"), territory tables, and event/ticket figures are uniformly "self-reported in the respective releases," not independently verified by this site — any citation of this card must carry this caveat and must not be treated as official endorsement; this card restates in a neutral factual register, without promotion or endorsement
Confidence: high
Per-event hard gate: the streaming platform-by-territory tables for GENKI (2026-04-11), REVENGE (2026-05-31), and DONTAKU (2026-07-20) each belong to their own event's release; this card keeps them separate, dates each, and forbids cross-event transplanting; the finding "same configuration at three events" extends only to what verbatim comparison of the three texts shows (the CSN row's order differs in the 5/31 release — flagged), with no inference about contract structure, revenue, or applicability to future events
Confidence: high
Limits of analysis: this card's synthesis passages ("standing architecture," "supply chain," "globalization") are built solely by juxtaposing and connecting already-cited facts (the F-Units), generate no numbers absent from the sources, and assert no causation; the organizer's strategy statements (FIGHTING NETWORK goals, etc.) are flagged as stated goals/plans, not accomplished facts
Confidence: high
