Ordered by FighterStatus Score. Eight of 110 — the highest rated of the whole Japan roster; their cards are on page 1 of the grid. Finish rate is that fighter's own stoppage wins as a share of his wins, and reads as a dash where no win methods were imported for him. Rank is his current FighterStatus divisional rank; retired fighters carry none.

Every figure on this page is summed from the 110 Japan profiles on FighterStatus — career professional records, win methods, weight classes, camps and vitals as recorded on each fighter. Nationality is keyed on the fighter's country code, so alternative spellings of the same country are counted once. A profile records a date of birth and no date of death, so an age is quoted only for a fighter still listed as active; retired fighters carry the year they were born instead. The FighterStatus Score is a proprietary 0-100 rating created by FighterStatus.com and is not an official UFC, boxing or MMA ranking; divisional and pound-for-pound ranks are drawn from it. Fields left blank on a profile are omitted here rather than guessed at.
