In 2004, Tamura became the first foreigner to beat a Burmese Lethwei fighter in an official match.
Tamura competed in a Lethwei tournament on July 10 & 11, 2004 at the Thuwunna National Indoor Stadium in Yangon, Myanmar against Aye Bo Sein.

The other Burmese fighters competing in the tournament were Naing Wan Lay, Win Tun and Shwe Sai.
Tamura knocked out local fighter Aya Bo Sein in the fourth round becoming the first foreigner to beat a Lethwei practitioner in an official match and received a challenge fight belt that was created specifically for the event.
In 2007, he was the lightweight champion of Shooto.

Although Akitoshi had a reputation of being one of the world's best in his weight class, he lost to former IFL featherweight champion Wagnney Fabiano, for whom it was also his WEC debut.
For his next fight, Tamura made his 135 lb. debut in the bantamweight division at WEC 40 against former world title challenger Manny Tapia.
