LAS VEGAS (Sept. 17, 2018) ? Japanese superstar Ryota Murata is taking his talents halfway around the world.

Murata-Brant will stream live in the United States beginning at 7:30 p.m. PST on ESPN+ ? the new multi-sport, direct-to-consumer subscription streaming service from The Walt Disney Company?s Direct-to-Consumer & International segment in conjunction with ESPN.
This is the second defense of the WBA title for Murata (14-1, 11 KOs), who won the belt with a dominating seventh-round TKO over Hassan N?Dam in October 2017. Five months earlier, N?Dam handed Murata his only professional loss via a highly controversial split decision. Murata left no doubt in the rematch and defended the title in April in Yokohama, Japan, knocking out Emanuele Blandamura in the eighth round.
A 2012 Olympic gold medalist, Murata is a sports icon in Japan, as the Blandamura fight drew a peak rating of 17 million viewers on Japanese TV. Brant (23-1, 16 KOs), from St. Paul, Minn., is undefeated when fighting as a middleweight and is the WBA No. 2-ranked middleweight in the world.
