Former champ Daigo Higa Battles Seiya Tsutsumi Oct 26 in Tokyo
By Carlos Costa PhilBoxing.com Sat, 12 Sep 2020

In a clash of hard-hitting Japanese warriors, former WBC Flyweight World Champion 比嘉大吾 Daigo Higa (16-1, 16 KO’s) will clash against undefeated compatriot 堤聖也 Seiya Tsutsumi (5-0-1, 4 KO’s) in a 10-rounder collision set for Monday, October 26, at the Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan.
Yesterday, the world-ranked 25-year-old Daigo Higa hosted a public online presscon to officially announce his bantamweight clash against Seiya Tsutsumi, 24, a tough, brave-heart fighter of the Kadoebi Boxing Gym.
Interestingly, the ex champ Daigo Higa from Okinawa lost two times to the strong fists of Seiya Tsutsumi in the amateurs – will that happen again..??
In fact, given the fighting spirit and the destructive power that both men deliver in their blows, it is likely that their war might not make the distance. But who will emerge VICTORIOUS.?
May the Best Man Win..!!
