Biography / Career

Nakajima began his kickboxing career in 2006 with the Shoot Boxing organization, winning all four of his fights. In 2009 after fighting for a number of promotions he joined Krush and won their "Road to MAX" 70 kg tournament at the end of the year. As Krush was a feeder league for K-1 MAX, champion Nakajima qualified for the following year's K-1 World MAX *an tournament.

He went into the compe*ion on a hot winning streak, having won all eleven of his fights, an impressive seven by KO. At the tournament in Saitama Nakajima made his way to the final, stopping both of his opponents including a 0:58 second knockout of fellow prospect Hinata Watanabe. In the final he faced Yuichiro Nagashima in what was an entertaining match with both fighters going all out in their quest for victory. In the second round Nakajima managed to knock down Nagashima but was unable to press home his advantage, losing in the third by knockout. Despite the first ever loss on his record, Nakajima's performance at the tournament earned him a call up to the K-1 World MAX 2010 Final 16 - Part 1 where he lost his elimination fight to 2002 MAX champion Albert Kraus.

He scored a first-round knockout over KEN at Krush Ignition vol. 4 in Tokyo, *an on June 2, 2013.

He lost to Yoichi Yamazaki via extension round split decision on August 11, 2013, at Krush.30.
