    WBO World Fly Weight World Title Match
    Sho Kimura (Aoki) vs Kosei Tanaka (Hatanaka)


    September 24th 16:00 (Japan Time) at TEVA Ocean Area
    Kosei Tanaka made his debut in 2013. Since then, he has been getting great attention. Beginning with his 4 amateur titles, and the the OPBF Minimumweight title in his 4th professional bout, the WBO World Minimumweight title in his 5th bout in May 2015 and WBO Light Flyweight title. This time he is looking ahead to attain a world title in a 3rd division. On the other hand, Kimura made his debut in 2013 and won WBO World Flyweight Title in 2017, upsetting Chinese legend Zou Shiming. Kimura is known as a hard worker and won his title whilst earning his bread from some extra jobs, outside of boxing.

    This bout is gaining a great attention in Japanese Boxing circles and CBC proudly announces we will be live-streaming the bout for free at http://www.asianboxing.info/.

    I'm pumped as hell for this match and going with Kimura, even though I have a feeling I'll be bitterly disappointed with the outcome.:lol:

    Kimura is the favourite with the Japanese fans apparently. Hoping some bookies price up the bout shortly

    Really? I guess I won't be the only one bitterly disappointed.:lol: Although Kimura is a live dog here and easily the most dangerous opponent of Kosei's career.

    Im going with kimura in this. Guy is a bull and tanaka historically has problems with in your face all night type of fighters.

    Well he did knockout Shiming. I'll be pulling for him too, but I don't think he'll be able to deal with Tanaka.

    Great match, both come to fight, and can be hit. I'm still not completely convinced about Tanaka, and is quite raw and smallish at FlyW, this is a very live test to see how he matures and progresses.

    AWESOME NEWS. But also **** me that is so early. :(

    You guys realize 1600 (4pm) Japanese time equates to a circadian rhythm annihilating 3am EST, right? I'm usually pretty willing to stay up for a card until 1 or 2 (in some cases even 3, but that's "fight's over, and now straight to bed" time) or get up as early as 6 or even 5am...but this is just so awkwardly dead center that we're fucked no matter what.

    That said, great news. :sisi1

    Also what's the word on TV coverage for the next day's Japanese card, featuring Kyotaro Fujimoto & Hiroto Kyoguchi?
