A WBC world title tripleheader will be today’s attraction to have our Japanese aficionados pay great attentions to. The headliner of this show, presented by Teiken Promotions, is WBC bantam ruler, unbeaten southpaw Shinsuke Yamanaka (17-0-2, 12 KOs) who will risk his belt against ex-WBC flyweight ruler Malcolm Tunacao (32-2-3, 20 KOs), a Japan-based Filipino lefthander, over twelve frames. WBC flyweight champ, ex-Olympian Toshiyuki Igarashi (17-1-1, 10 KOs) will take on former WBA minimum titlist Akira Yaegashi (16-3, 9 KOs) with his belt on the line. The first world title go will be competed by newly crowned WBC super-feather ruler Gamaliel Diaz (37-9-2, 17 KOs), a Mexican veteran, and Japanese challenger Takashi Miura (24-2-2, 18 KOs).
