May 20th 2021-Korakuen Hall, Tokyo, Japan Ryota Toyoshima (13-2-1, 8) Vs Yuki Beppu (21-1-1, 20) Earlier today at Korakuen Hall we got a regional title unification bout as OPBF Welterweight champion Ryota Toyoshima [豊嶋亮太] faced off with WBO Asia Pacific champion Yuki Beppu [別府優樹] in a bout that promised a lot. Whilst neither man is ever likely to mix at world level, they are both known for being crude fighters that give us exciting bouts and there was a lot of hope that they would give fans something a little bit special here on the 600th Dynamic Glove show.

December 8th 2019-EDION Arena Osaka, Osaka, Osaka, Japan Yuki Beppu (20-1-1, 19) vs Ryota Yada (19-5, 16) It's rare for an all-Japanese bout below world level to get much attention, but this past weekend one managed to ignite imaginations as word got out about what happened. The bout in question saw more than 5 knockdowns and featured both men being dropped as Yuki Beppu [別府優樹] and Ryota Yada [矢田良太] traded bombs in a bout for the WBO Asia Pacific Welterweight title. January 13th 2017-Korakuen Hall, Tokyo, Japan Yuki Beppu (14-0, 14) Vs Charles Bellamy (26-3-1, 17) Last week fight fans in Japan saw unbeaten puncher Yuki Beppu [別府 優樹] take a huge step up in class as he took on former OPBF and JBC unified champion Charles Bellamy in a genuinely brilliant match up on paper. Notably Beppu was looking to tie the Japanese KO run coming into this one. June 30th 2016-Korakuen Hall, Tokyo, Japan Yuki Beppu (12-0, 12) Vs Wachana Khiaoon (0-1) In June 2016 Japanese puncher Yuki Beppu [別府 優樹] battle against Thai visitor Wachana Khiaoon, with Beppu seeking KO #13. January 25th 2016- Korakuen Hall, Tokyo, Japan Yuki Beppu (11-0, 11) vs Lekker Bangkok 2007 (0-1) In early 2016 Japanese puncher Yuki Beppu [別府 優樹] took on Thai visitor Lekker Bangkok 2007. December 21st 2014- Korakuen Hall, Tokyo, Japan Yuki Beppu (7-0, 7) Vs Hironobu Matsunaga (6-0, 3) This past Sunday saw the end of the 2014 Rookie of the Year competition. One of the best bouts on the show was the Welterweight bout which saw the heavy handed Yuki Beppu battle against Hironobu Matsunaga. On paper it was one of the best contests on the show putting unbeaten fighters against each other whilst in the ring it proved to be genuinely thrilling as both men fought with the belief that their power would win the bout. This is relatively short but very exciting. (Video courtesy of Nov K) One of the most interesting fighters to emerge from the 2014 Rookie of the Year competition is the heavy handed Yuki Beppu who moved to 7-0 (7) as he booked his place in the All-Japan Rookie of the Year final and stopped Shota Yamamoto. We won't pretend that Beppu is the most skilled fighter you'll see but it's hard to dislike his bludgeoning attack which looks to combine heavy shots, weird angles and a really offensive and exciting mentality. Whether he proves to be a prospect or not is still in the air but he'll certainly be fun to follow. (Video courtesy of nov K) The hard hitting and very exciting Yuki Beppu will be going for his 7th straight stoppage victory in November. Although we don't have footage of all of his fights we have managed to track down his 3rd fight, his bout with Tatsuro Ono. The bout, which lasted less than 100 seconds saw Beppu showing his boxing ability at times though it was his killer instinct that was really impressive and when he hurt Ono he really didn't let him off the hook trying to break him quickly. We won't pretend Beppu will become a world champion but on footage like this he is going to become someone that we enjoy watching. It's fair to say that most fight fans love power, aggression and and a mentality based around scoring stoppages. That, in some ways, describes Japanese Welterweight hopeful Yuki Beppu who has begun his career with 6 straight stoppages, the most recent of which came against Shinpei Tominaga in a "blink and you'll miss it" performance just a few short months ago. When you hear the opening bell for this one we advise you don't look away. |
