Hiromitsu Kanehara (born October 5, 1970) is a Zainichi-Korean mixed martial arts fighter. He competes in the Light Heavyweight division. He lost his last fight at Pancrase - Shining 2 against Izuru Takeuchi on March 26, 2008.

Although starting as a professional wrestler in 1991, Kanehara did not have much success as such, and eventually abandoned professional wrestling when his then-home circuit, Fighting Network RINGS, abandoned the discipline in the late 1990's. Unlike most shoot-style comrades such as Masayuki Naruse, Wataru Sakata, and Minoru Suzuki, who returned to regular puroresu, Kanehara is yet to make such an appearance.
