He faced Hiromi Amada at the K-1 World Grand Prix 2012 in Tokyo final 16 on October 14, 2012[2][3] and won via unanimous decision.[4]

Despite qualifying for the K-1 World Grand Prix 2012 Final, Uehara was left out in the cold when the event rolled around and was replaced by the higher-ranked Pavel Zhuravlev.[5]

He was set to fight Dustin Jacoby at Glory 12: New York - Lightweight World Championship Tournament in New York City on November 23, 2013[7] but the match was switched to Glory 13: Tokyo - Welterweight World Championship Tournament in Tokyo, Japan on December 21, 2013.[8][9] He defeated Jacoby by split decision.[10][11][12][13]
