Hee Jae Cho (13-2, 8) vs Kazuyoshi Kumano (22-6, 5)
In 2009 promising Korean Hee Jae Cho [조희재] took on Japan's Kazuyoshi Kumano in what, effectively, an OPBF title eliminator, with the winner later getting a shot at Kengo Nagashima the following June. Interestingly those who may recognise Kumanao's name may well recall that he was actually the man who defeated a then debuting Keita Obara in 2010!
