 Korakuen Hall, Tokyo, Japan
On paper the main card in the Orient is in Tokyo, where we get a Japan Vs China and Thailand show Although the card is Japan Vs China and Thailand, there is actually only a single bout featuring a Thai, and that’s the bout pitting the brilliant Mikito Nakano (9-0, 8) against Sathaporn Saart (13-1, 8) in the show’s main event. On paper this looks like a really good bout, though in reality Nakano is one of the best prospects in Japan, and seems to be on the verge of a domestic, or regional title bout. As for the Thai he lost on debut, in a baptism of fire against the then 24-1 Thiranan Matsali, before reeling off 13 straight wins. Many of those wins are relatively low key, but he did beat Pipat Chaiporn, Ken Jordan and Nattapong Jankaew during that run. Notably this is Saart’s first fight outside of Thailand, and it’s a really tough one against a very talented and hard hitting hopeful Talking about hard hitting and talented Japanese hopefuls, few are as explosive as former amateur standout Hiroto Yashiro (5-0, 5), who clashes with hard hitting Chinese visitor Jun Zhao (13-4-2, 10). Yashiro has scored 5 wins in just 13 rounds, with 7 of those rounds coming in his 2023 clash with Nattapong Jankaew, and he has looked like a real talent so far. As for Zhao, he was one of the better Chinese fighters out there at one point, but at 31 he has likely started to decline just a touch, as seen by a 3-fight win-less streak coming into this. In fact he’s not scored a win in over 4 years, and he’ll likely know he needs a win here to keep his career alive. Another man needing a win right now is former Japanese Welterweight title contender Masaya Tamayama (14-4, 8), who fights for the first time since November 2022, and seeks his first win since May 2021. He’s up against the once beaten Fan Zhang (6-1-1, 4). Sadly for Zhang he was blown out inside a minute last time out, and many of his wins have come at a very, very low level making it hard to know how good he really is. One bout where China might be expected to pick up a win is a bout between the light punching Eikichi Ueno (4-2-2) and unbeaten Chinese fighter Lite Dawuxi (6-0, 4). For Ueno this is his second 6 rounder and he’s 2-1-2 in his last 5, all against novices. Dawuxi, who’s making his international debut, has also mostly fought novices, but did stop the experience George Lumoly last time out, in what is a career best win. Higashin Arena, Sumida-Ku, Tokyo, Japan Staying in Tokyo, we’ll also get a Dangan card at the Higashin Arena. This card, which we won’t go into much detail about, is a card packed with 4 rounder bouts. The bouts, by themselves, aren’t really worthy of much attention, but one thing we do know about these shows is they tend to give us great action, and a lot of fun fights. The men involved are all novices, and none of them are expected to develop into top international contenders, but they will put it all on the line on what will be a very fun and wild show. EDION Arena Osaka, Osaka, Osaka, Japan A third noteworthy Japanese show takes place in Osaka where Juiki Tatsuyoshi (15-0-1, 10), the son of the legendary Joichiro Tatsuyoshi, takes on limited Thai veteran Chaiwat Buatkrathok (41-9, 27). Tatsuyoshi is a flawed but fun fighter who has been developed slowly, and whilst he’s never going to become the fighter his dad was, he will always be fun to watch due to his offensive style, power and defensive flaws, all of which he actually shares with his father. Sadly though he is clearly much more limited than his father and lacks the X-factor charisma his dad had. As for the Thai, Buatkrathok is a very limited fighter and despite having 50 bouts to his name he still fights like a novice, with a lot of flaws and has a very, very padded record. Cheongpyeong Family Hotel, Cheongpyeong, South Korea Outside of Japan we also get a small but notable South Korean card In a scheduled 8 rounder unbeaten 21 year old Korean based Uzbek hopeful Egamberdi Nuriddinov (4-0-1, 2) takes on Chinese fighter Biegezhati Suosailehan (7-3-2, 6). For Nuriddinov this will be his second bout of the year, and his first career 8 rounder, and it’s fair to say his team have got strong expectations for him, even if he’s still very much a developing and maturing youngster. Suosailehan on the other hand will be in his second 8 rounder, though he has also fought in a pair of 10 rounders, and is 5-1 (5) in his last 6, dating back to 2020. Suosailehan is likely to look the bigger man, having fought as high as Light Heavyweight, but Nuriddinov definitely has the more class and pedigree, and we suspect that will be the difference here. In a battle of unbeaten men Uzbek Doniyorbek Khaitaliev (6-0, 4) will face off with China’s Balihenbieke Balihenbieke (2-0-0-1, 1), over 6 rounds. Khaitaliev looks good on paper, but when you scratch beneath the surface you notice that 5 of his 6 wins have come against novices, and the only time he fought someone with some experience he went the 4 round distance and lost one of those rounds. Aged 20 Balihenbieke went 6 rounds back in January, giving the then 3-0 Han Mi his first loss, and it’s fair to say he’ll be coming into this to take another unbeaten record. This could be much, much more competitive than it looks at first glance. The show was also set to see former Korean amateur standout Jong Hun Shin (1-0) take on Run Zhao (2-3-1,1), with Shin looking to build on his impressive debut in against Ranelio Quizo in December 2022, but sadly that bout has now been scrapped, and it seems like we’ll never really see how good of a professional Shin could have been Kingdom Arena, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia Whilst the main action involving Asian fighters is taking place in Japan and Korea we can’t forget the card taking place in Saudi Arabia. There is a lack of notable Asian fighters on the show, but one man does deserve a mention, and that’s 23 year old Afghan fighter Hasibullah Ahmadi (16-1, 5) who takes on British fighter Isaac Lowe (24-2-3, 8), with Lowe looking for a 4th win since back to back stoppage losses against Luis Alberto Lopez and Nick Ball. As for Ahmadi he is looking for his second win since a loss in March 2023 to the under-rated Dana Coolwell. Ahmadi will be the under-dog here, but is an upset minded fighter who has sprung a few surprises during his career, and will see this as a chance to really make a name for himself on a huge card in Saudi Arabia.

 Korakuen Hall, Tokyo, Japan
The main show for us this coming Saturday is the latest in the long line of Dynamic glove cards from Korakuen Hall, and it's a real show case for the future of Japanese boxing thanks to Teiken. The card is headlined by a WBO Asia Pacific title bout, and is then packed with talented novices all looking to take big strides forward with their careers. The main event will see 26 year old Japanese warrior Ryota Toyoshima (15-2-1, 9) defending his WBO Asia Pacific Welterweight title against Filipino challenger Adam Diu Abdulhamid (17-10, 9). For the talented Toyoshima, who is enjoying the best run of his career, this will be his second defense of the title, and a chance for him to not just tighten his grip on the regional scene but also take a step towards a potential world title fight. This bout is very much one that he should look great in, but he can't over-looked Abdulhamid. The Filipino is an aggressive fighter, who will be in the ring looking to force the action and drag Toyoshima into a war, which could give us a genuinely excellent battle. The skills are with the champion, but the challenger does have heart and desire and could well play his part in a bit of an action packed war. Our in depth preview of this bout can be read here Asian Pacific champion Toyoshima battles Abdulhamid! From the prospects on the card, the hardest matched is former amateur standout Gonte Lee (3-0-1, 1), who takes on Korean visitor Moo Hyun Kim (9-2, 5). Lee was tipped for huge things when he turned professional, but the pandemic has slowed his rise and he'll know that if he's going to deliver on the promise he showed as an amateur he's going to have to shine here. As for Kim he returns to Japan for his third bout in the country, where he currently holds a 2-0 record, but Lee is, by far, the most talented fighter and polished fighter he will have faced. Another former amateur standing out looking to pick up a win against a foreign import is the wonderfully gifted Hiroto Yashiro (2-0, 2) , who takes on Thai visitor Suphaphon Hanvichachay (3-0, 2), in what we are expecting will be an explosive, and short bout. Both men can punch, and only one of their 5 combined bouts has gone beyond 3 rounds. Don't blink when these two are in there together. Another battle of unbeaten men will see Junya Shimada (1-0, 1) battle Rechel Calo (3-0, 1). Shimada made his debut last year, and eked out a narrow win over Shigetoshi Kotari, and will be hoping to put in a more commanding effort here. As for Calo this is his first bout away from home and a huge step up, given Shimada's amateur exploits. Other under-card bouts will include Kenshi Noda (2-1, 2), looking to bounce back from his loss, taking on Thailand's Kitidech Hirunsuk (9-2, 5), former Rookie of the year winner, Hiromasa Urakawa (7-1, 4) battling Thailand's Perapan Judkan (8-1, 7), in what could be a very explosive bout, and the debut of Hiroki Ogawa (0-0), who takes on unbeaten Thai novice Phongthep Bunchari (1-0, 1). Spaceplus Bangkok RCA, Bangkok, Thailand As well as the action in Japan, featuring notable hopefuls and prospects, we get the chance to see some top Thai hopefuls taking on some dangerous Filipino fighters in WBA Asia title fights. The more notable the two major bouts will see Tanes Ongjunta (10-1, 5) look to make his third defense of the WBA Asia Flyweight title as he takes on the very dangerous Jeny Boy Boca (14-7, 12). The talented Ongjunta has rebuilt well since being stopped in 2020, by Adrian Lerasan in a forgotten but thrilling 8 round war, and has scored 6 wins since then to get his career back on track. On paper Boca doesn't look like a test, but the visitor is dangerous, as he showed last time he was in Thailand, when he stopped Sarawut Thawornkham. Sadly though he has been inactive since a December 2020 loss to Muhammad Waseem The other bout will see Yuttapong Tongdee (7-0, 4) battle Ryan Rey Ponteras (23-15-3, 12) with the two men trading blows for the WBA Asia Bantamweight title. Tongdee looks to be among the most talented of the emerging Thai hopefuls, but this is a genuine step up for him and we could see him being given a genuine chin check by Ponteras. As his best Ponteras was a tough, stubborn guy with solid power, and he showed that stubbornness late last year when he gave Seong Yeong Yang a tough test, however he was taken out in a round in 2019 by Seiya Tsutsumi, who has since gone on to win the Japanese Bantamweight crown and shown his potential. This should be a real work out for the unbeaten local fighter. China Staying in Asia, we also get a show in China, with a former world title challenger, who's fighting for only the second time since losing in a world title fight in 2019, and an unbeaten hopeful. The former world title challenger is Wulan Tuolehazi (14-4-1, 7), who famously challenged Kosei Tanaka for the WBO Flyweight title on the final day of 2019 and was stopped by the KO Dream Boy. Since then Tuolehazi has scored a single win, in early 2020, and will be fighting for the first time in over 2 years here, as he takes on DianXing Zhu (6-1, 5). Zhu is a 25 year old with heavy hands but he is also a naturally smaller man than Tuolehazi, and is unlikely to have the power to get the respect of the veteran. The other bout of note on this card will see the unbeaten 22 year old LeQuan Wang (6-0, 4) look to continue his winning streak as he takes on Zixiang Wang (4-2, 2), who's only losses have been by razor thin split decisions. The unbeaten Wang began his career in 2019 and has looked heavy handed through out his career, but has faced a string of very limited foes, with 4 wins against debutants and 5 wins against fighters without a win. As for Zixiang Wang he began his career in 2017 and has, overall, faced better opponents, but was beaten just 2 fights ago, and hasn't shown much in terms of power. For both men this is their most notable bout to date, and should provide a genuine chance to see if either man has what it takes to make a mark on the regional scene. Dickies Arena, Fort Worth, Texas, USA Over in the US we'll see hard hitting Uzbekistani hopeful Bektemir Melikuziev (9-1, 7) continue his rebuilding process as he takes on the experienced Sladan Janjanin (32-11, 24), from Bosnia And Herzegovina. The hard hitting Melikuziev will be looking for his third win since his shock 2021 loss to Gabe Rosado, and he shouldn't have any problems here. Janjanin is experience, and does have plenty of wins to his name, but his wins have come at a very, very low level and he has consistently lost when he has faced name fighters, including a 7th round TKO loss to Nathan Heaney last year and a 3rd round TKO loss in 2016 to Steven Butler.  This Saturday promises to be a great day with a brilliant Japanese card being shown live on Boxing Raise, and a live show being streamed from the Philippines!
Korakuen Hall, Tokyo, Japan That Japanese card comes from Tokyo and features 4 bouts of note, none are world title bouts, but there are two less title bouts on the show, and a mouth watering domestic show down, as well as a bout featuring a former Japanese national champion. In the main event OPBF Light Welterweight champion Rikki Naito (22-2, 7) will battle against fellow Japanese fighter Yusuke Konno (16-4, 9), with both Naito's OPBF title on the line. Coming in Naito will be the clear favourite, he's the more proven man, the Oriental champion and the quicker more skilled fighter. We shouldn't write off Konno however, and he's a big, strong, powerful fighter, with good stamina and he'll be desperate to force his will on Naito. This is very much a match up of skill Vs will and knowing that Konno will be pressing and pressuring through out we can't help feel that Konno is a very live under-dog here. Our full preview of this bout is available here Naito and Konno clash for OPBF title The chief support bout is a mouth watering match up between youngsters as Yoshimitsu Kimura (12-2, 7) and Shuma Nakazato (10-1-2, 7) clash, in a truly brilliant match up. Kimura is coming in on the back of a split decision loss to OPBF 130lb champion Hironori Mishiro, which was a great clash last year, and he'll have given his standing and confidence a huge boost despite the lost. Incidentally Nakazato's sole loss also came to Mishiro, but since then he has gone 4-0-1 and will know a win here moves him to within touch distance of a title bout. We expect this to be highly technical but also really exciting with Kimura being the aggressor, applying calculated pressure and Nakazato looking to play the role of a puncher. We wouldn't be surprised if this was the bout of the week. The other title bout promises to be just as good as the main event, with Japanese Youth Super Flyweight champion Suzumi Takayama (3-0, 3) defending his title against Hiroto Yashiro (2-0, 2), in what will be Takayama's first defense. Unlike most countries Japan matches their young up and comers against each other often and the Youth title has seen that happen more and more often in recent years. Prior to turning professional both of these youngsters had made their marks on the amateur scene and seeing them face off at this ultra-early point in their professional careers is really exciting. This is a hard one to call and we are expecting a brilliant, tactical, hard hitting battle here. A fantastic match up and credit to both men for accepting the bout. This should be something special. Our full preview of this bout can be read here Novices clash in Japanese Youth title clash! Also on this card will be former Japanese Super Bantamweight champion Ryoichi Tamura (15-5-1, 7), who is always worth watching. The all action Tamura will be expected to pick up a relatively easy win here, as he takes on Ryu Oba (5-4, 3), though in fairness Tamura makes even mismatches fun and exciting with his action style and aggression. Although Oba is the under-dog he'll have some confidence having won his last 2 and will be here to win. This should be fun, even if it does have a very predictable winner. Phillipines The restart in Filipino boxing has been a slow one, though we do get another show in the country today as Sanman puts on a card with several notable names on it. The main event will see former WBO Bantamweight champion Marlon Tapales (33-3, 16) battle against Eden Sonsona (36-11-2, 13) in a bout at a contracted 132lbs, well above Tapales' best weight. This will be Tapales's first bout since losing to Ryosuke Iwasa in an IBF "interim" Super Bantamweight title bout, and to see him going up the scales this much is a worry, though he should still have enough to beat Sonsona. Another notable fighter on this card is 2-time world title challenger Aston Palicte (26-4-1, 22), who will be in action at Bantamweight, where he takes on Reymark Taday (10-12-1, 5), in what looks very much like a confidence builder for Palicte following 2 losses last year, including one to Kazuto Ioka. Other notables involved on the show are Joey Canoy (15-4-1, 8) and the talented Dave Apolinario (13-0, 8), who are both facing domestic foes that they shouldn't struggle with. This event is set to be streamed on the Sanman Facebook page for those wanting to enjoy some Filipino action. Xi An, China As well as the action in Japan there will also be a show in China. This is another low key Chinese card, as we still see the sport re-finding it's feet in the Middle Kingdom. One of the few interesting bouts on this show will see Jin Ping Yang (2-0-1) take on Xiaokang Song (4-0) in a battle of unbeaten men, over 10 rounds. The 23 year old Yang made his debut in October 2018, with a 4 round decision, and stepped up to 6 rounders earlier this year. He's now leaping up to a 10 rounder in what is very, very clearly a step up in class. Song on the other hand is a 21 year old and has been a fighting in 4 rounders. This isn't an easy one to call, but is an interesting one on paper, and a somewhat compelling match up, given that the promoter is trusting the two men to headline the card. In a second bout on this card Shichao Gao (5-1-1, 2) will take on JiZhong He (2-1, 1) over 8 rounds. We have been impressed by Gao in the past, and he seemed to be on the fast track to the top when he beat Koji Igarashi and Anurak Thisa last year, but a loss in June has slowed his rise. As for He it's hard to say anything at all about him given the very low level of competition he has faced so far, and this is a very, very big step up in class for him. February 1st-Title bouts in Japan, world title fight in Mexico and the Uzbek rising continues!1/27/2020  This coming Saturday is an exciting and busy day with multiple shows featuring Asian fighters, in bouts of varying significance.
Tokyo, Japan For us the main card of the day will be in Japan as Teiken put on a Dynamic Glove at Korakuen Hall. This G+ televised card will feature two title bouts and a number of interesting hopefuls. The main event of the show will see Japanese Welterweight champion Yuki Nagano (17-2, 13) defending his title against mandatory challenger Keita Obara (22-4-1, 20) in the first of the 2020 Champion Carnival bouts. This should be a really explosive bout and both men can hurt, and be hurt. Coming in Nagano will be seeking his second defense of the title and has scored 7 stoppages in his last 8 bouts. For Obara the bout is a chance to claim a second Japanese title, and a chance to give his career a shot in the arm after some recent set backs. Our in depth preview of this bout can be read here Champion Nagano faces Obara in Japanese title defense The second title fight on this card will be a Japanese Youth Super Featherweight bout between Ryusei Ishii (8-5-1, 5) and Yamato Hata (9-1, 9), who face off for the vacant title. Of the two Ishii is the more experienced man, and has faced the better competition, but Hata is a rising puncher, and will enter this bout with momentum on his side, with 6 straight TKO wins. Ishii on the other hand has struggled with just 1 win in his last 4. Our preview of this bout can be read here Hard hitting Hata takes on Ishii for Japanese Youth title In an interesting match up between Japanese ranked fighter's we'll see JBC ranked Welterweight Junpei Tsujimoto (6-1-3, 4) move up to 154lbs to face ranked Middleweight Nath Nwachukwu (5-0-2, 2), who drops down 6 lbs. This is interesting to see both men changing weight for the bout, which will be scheduled for 6 rounds. Interestingly both of these men won the Rookie of the Year in 2018, and each have picked up 2 wins since then. Maybe not a big bout but an interesting one. At 14olbs we see another Japanese ranked fighter, with the hard hitting Kenta Endo (5-0-1, 4), who also won the 2018 Rookie of the Year, taking on Shun Akaiwa (4-1-1, 2). Aged 35 Endo's potentially to is limited by his age, but he's a fun, exciting and hard hitting fighter. Someone who can make very TV friendly bouts. Akaiwa on the other hand is not someone we can recall watching but he's yet to be stopped and should make for an interesting opponent for Endo. Further down the card we see two notable Japanese prospects taking on Indonesian novices. One of those prospects is Kenshi Noda (1-0, 1), who is expected to pick up a quick win against Thomas Tope Hurek (2-4-1, 1) in a Light Flyweight bout, whilst the other is Super Flyweight Hiroto Yahsiro (1-0, 1), who takes takes on Abdul Rauf (1-2). Expect these to be little more than showcase wins for the local prospects. Nuevo León, Mexico Whilst the biggest show is the one in Japan the biggest single bout is actually in Mexico where IBF Minimumweight champion Pedro Taduran (14-2, 11) defends his belt against talented Mexican challenger Daniel Valladares (22-1, 13). Taduran won his title in a brilliant little war with Samuel Salva last September and at 23 is still just getting stronger. It is however always a big ask to pick up a win on the road in Mexico. Valladares on the other hand had an under-rated 2019 where he scored 4 wins including stoppages over Filipino fighters Melito Sabillo and Christian Araneta. This could be a very, very exciting match up! Our preview of this bout is available here Taduran defends IBF title against Valladares in Mexico! Metro Manila, Philippines Back in Asia we get an interesting double header in Metro Manbila, where we see two Filipino title fights. One of those will see Roldan Aldea (14-8-1, 8) defending his title as he takes on veteran Monico Laurente (30-16, 7) in a Lightweight clash. Although not a star Aldea has proven to be a rugged and durable fighter who is better than his record suggests, and his upset KO win last year over Mikhail Alexeev shows he can bang, when he lands clean. At 34 years old Laurente is certainly coming to the end of his career, and he will be the under-dog here, but will be a live under-dog. We expect this to be an interesting match up, even if it's the less intriguing of the two title bouts on the show. The other title bout on this card will be a Flyweight bout as the under-rated Alphoe Dagayloan (14-3-5, 5) takes on Carlo Caesar Penalosa (14-2, 7). Although not well known outside of Asia Dagayloan has built a reputation for himself as a horror to face off with, he's aggressive, tough, strong and not an easy man to look good against. Penalosa on the other hand is a third generation fighter from the Penalosa family and is looking to bounce back from a loss last time out to Maximino Flores. This could be the hidden gem of the weekend. Mumbai, India There is also a card in India, where we get some low key action on a card in Mumbai. One of the more notable bouts here will see Rahul Kumar (6-3-1, 4) take on novice Rakesh Bawa (0-1), in a bout scheduled for 8 rounds. It's hard to see Bawa winning, but the reality is that Kumar is no world beater himself and has lost 3 of his last 6 coming into this. An even bugger mismatch will see the once beaten Sagar Narwat (9-1-1, 3) take on Harish Harish (0-0) in a 4 round bout. Narwat was beaten back in October, by Troy O'Meley, but this should be an easy comeback win for the 25 year old from Faridabad Khonobod, Uzbekistan In Uzbekistan we'll see a number of promising novices in action, in what will be a card where fighters will get a chance to show case their skills. At the moment none of the promising fighters on the card have had their opponents name, but we're expecting to see Dostonbek Turdiev (7-0, 3), Abdulazizbek Najmiddinov (4-0, 4), Jasurbek Latipov (0-0) and Obidjon Tokhirov (0-0) all in action. From those involved it's Latipov, who was a brilliant amateur, that stands out as the most interesting of those on the card and the one with the biggest upside. Kaliningrad, Russia There are more Uzbeks in action in Russia where a trio of Uzbeks will be looking to make their mark. Thge most notable bout here will see Rustam Tulaganov (2-0, 1) take on the much more experienced Norbert Dabrowski (23-8-2, 10). The talented Tulaganov is expected to have a huge 2020 after having had a stop-start career so far, and a win here would be a massive statement for him. The 31 year old Dabrowski, from Poland, is talented, experienced and a big step up for Tulaganov, however the Uzbek will be regarded as the favourite here. Another of the Uzbek's on this show is Odiljon Aslonov (1-0, 1) who will be up against South African foe Snamiso Ntuli (4-3, 2) in a 6 round bout whilst the third is the debuting Ulugbek Mubinov (0-0), who takes on the 30 year old Srdan Govedarica (7-8, 6). These bouts are less interesting than Tulaganov's but we're expecting dominant and impressive wins for the Uzbek pair.  Tokyo, Japan
Teiken are surprisingly busy in early September, with 2 shows in the space of just a few days. The first of those is a relatively small card at the Korakun Hall. The main event sees the rising Yamato Hata (8-1, 8) headline against Ryukyu Oho (6-2, 3) in a Japanese Youth Super Featherweight title eliminator. The hard hitting Hata has stopped his last 5, since losing to Takuya Hashimoto in early 2017, including Shingo Kusano in what is a career best win. Whilst Hata is on a good run Oho is looking to secure his second win since losing in the 2018 Rookie of the Year to Hikari Mineta, and he will be the clear under-dog. The chief support bout will see Daiki Funayama (9-3-1, 2) hunt a 7th straight win, as he takes on Sophon Klachun (5-3, 1). Although no world beater Funayama recently moved into 8 round bouts and is on a good run, which should continue here. The Thai visitor on the other hand has lost in his 3 bouts in Japan, including a very competitive bout with Dynamic Kenji earlier this year. Although win-less in Japan Sophon did manage a win last time out in China, his first outside of Thailand. The 2018 All Japan Rookie of the Year winner at Welterweight, Junpei Tsujimoto (5-1-3, 3), will look for his second win of the year as he battles Korean visitor Jin Soo Kim (4-3, 3) in what will be the local man's first 8 round bout. Tsujimoto was stopped on debut but has gone 8 unbeaten since then, and won his last 3. Kim on the other hand has lost 3 of his last 4 and it's hard to imagine he has much of a chance here. Also on this card will be debuts for Hiroto Yashiro (0-0) and Kenshi Noda (0-0), who are two recent Teiken signings. Both men will be in 6 rounds bouts against limited Thai's. The 22 year old Yashiro, who fights at Bantamweight, will be up against Adundet Khonwong (3-6, 2), who has lost in 6 previous visits to Japan, including a stoppage loss in 2017 to Shingo Wake, and he shouldn't post many questions to Yashiro. Noda on the other hand is a 24 year old Flyweight who will take on Somphon Banyaem (3-3, 3), who has been stopped every time he has left Thailand. |
