JBC(Japan Boxing Commission) is not currently allowing Japanese boxers to fight under IBF and WBO. So, Japanese champions with world title have difficulty in fighting for unification bouts. There is controversy among Japanese boxing fans about that.

Anyway, both Hasegawa and the fans wants big matches outside of Japan, especially in the US;however, no specific opponents are announced so far. I think it is mainly due to his promotional issues.
Teiken promotion, which backs up Jorge Linares and used to do so Edwin Valero, could possibly contribute to Hasegawa's debut in the US. Teiken promotion has good relationship with GBP and Top Rank. But what step Hasegawa's team will take in the next stage has been unclear for now.
Six days ago, some Japanese newspaper reported that Vic Darchinyan was considering to challenge Hasegawas's title. But Vic will fight Agbeko.

However, keep an eye on Hasegawa! He,his team and the fans definitely want his name to be known to the world!
