		Rutten is forced to vacate the KOP on 10/19/96 after telling Pancrase he won't be able to defend on 12/15/96 because he'll be taking off until sometime in 1997 to be with his pregnant wife.
		A 4-man tournament is held on 11/9/96 and 12/15/96 to crown a new King Of Pancrase.
		This was portrayed as Mezger's decision since he was set to face Vitor Belfort on the 3/5/99 UFC PPV, but speculation is that Pancrase asked him to vacate the title because they bought into the Belfort myth and feared their organization would look bad when their champion lost on another leagues show.

		Originally Pancrase was planning to find a suitable fighter to challenge TK's King of Panrase belt (Super-heavyweight) but last month, number three ranked Alex Roberts got caught by Anthony 'Tatsuji' Netzler's heel lock, so Pancrase decided to look for new talent outside Japan.
		However, since this is Kyle's first Pancrase appearance, this fight vs. TK is going to be a non-title bout.
		Many fans in the states probably remembers Kyle as the man who bit Sims' chest in UFC 47 but since then he has been under control and behaving well,so it will be interesting to see how TK will ride this matured wild horse break him down to the canvas, his favorite area, and tame him.
