Taiga Kawabe is a Japanese kickboxer, currently signed with RISE, where he is the current RISE Super Featherweight (-60kg) champion. He is the former Krush Super Bantamweight and K-1 Super Featherweight champion, as well as a two-time K-1 Grand Prix runner-up.[1]

Taiga is the younger brother of Hiroya, who inspired him along with the two time K-1 Max World Champion Masato to start practicing Karate in his childhood, becoming a Black Belt at the fifth grade.[2]

He was ranked as a top ten bantamweight in the world by Combat Press between April 2018 and January 2019.[3][4]

Kickboxing career

Early career

Taiga made his professional debut against Ryota at Krush-EX 2012 vol.6, winning by a third-round TKO. He won his next three fights by unanimous decision, before participating in the Krush Youth Super Bantamweight Grand Prix. He won the tournament with a split decision against Namito Izawa in the semifinals and a unanimous decision against Ryuji Horio in the finals.[5]

After an extra round decision win against Yuya Suzuki at Krush.41, Taiga won the Krush Super Bantamweight title with a unanimous decision victory over Shota Takiya.[6]

K-1

Early K-1 career

Taiga made his K-1 debut against Takeru Segawa at the K-1 World GP 2014 -65kg Championship Tournament event. Taiga lost the fight by a spinning backfist knockout. It was both the first loss and the first knockout loss of his career.[7]

Immediately following this loss, Taiga was scheduled to take part in the K-1 Super Bantamweight Grand Prix, to crown the inaugural champion.[8] He defeated Soufiane El Haji by unanimous decision in the quarterfinals and Nobuchika Terado by a third-round knockout in the semifinals. In a rematch with Takeru Segawa in the tournament finals, Taiga once again came up short, losing by unanimous decision.[9]

At K-1 World GP 2015 The Championship, Taiga fought the future Krush Super Featherweight champion Leona Pettas. Pettas won the fight by a majority decision.[10] Returning to Krush, Taiga bounced back from this losing skid with a second-round knockout of Taishi Hiratsuka.[11]

K-1 Super Featherweight tournament

Taiga took part in the K-1 World GP 2016 -60kg Japan Tournament. He scored a first-round flying knee knockout of Masahiro Yamamoto in the quarterfinals, and a first-round left-hook knockout of Toshi in the semifinals. Taiga won the tournament with a unanimous decision win against Koya Urabe.[12]

Winning this tournament earned him a place in the K-1 World GP 2016 -60kg Japan Tournament. He won his quarterfinal bout against Javier Hernández by TKO, after his opponent retired at the end of the second round. He beat Hirotaka Urabe by unanimous decision in the semifinals. Taiga fought a rematch with Koya Urabe in the tournament finals, and lost by TKO, after being knocked down three times inside of the first 90 seconds.[13]

K-1 title reign

After beating Chen Wende at the Wu Lin Feng 2016: WLF x Krush - China vs Japan event, Taiga was given the chance to challenge Hirotaka Urabe for the K-1 Super Featherweight title. He beat Urabe by unanimous decision.[14]

Four months after winning the title, Taiga was scheduled to fight Koji in a non-title bout.[15] He won the fight by unanimous decision.[16]

In his last fight with the promotion, Taiga was scheduled to fight Stavros Exakoustidis. Exakoustidis won the fight by a first-round knockout.[17]

Moving away from K-1, Taiga participated in the Kunlun Fight 74 61.5kg Tournament, being scheduled to fight Lin Qiangbang in the quarterfinals. Qiangbang won the fight by majority decision.[18]

RIZIN

After his first victory in over two years, Taiga was scheduled to fight the former RISE Lightweight champion Taiju Shiratori at Rizin 19.[26] Shiratori won the fight by unanimous decision.[27] The two of them fought an immediate rematch at Rizin 20.[28] Shiratori once again won, this time by TKO, as Taiga was unable to continue after the second round due to a cut.[29]

Taiga was next scheduled to fight the reigning RISE Lightweight champion Kento Haraguchi at Rizin 23. Taiga lost the fight by a first-round knockout.[30]

Following these three losses, Taiga was scheduled to fight Yuma Yamahata at Rizin 25. He snapped the second losing streak of his career with a unanimous decision victory over Yamahata.[31]
