KOSEI TANAKA vs RYOICHI TAGUCHI WBO WORLD TITLE FIGHT FREE INTERNET STREAMING MARCH 16

PhilBoxing.com





One of the best bouts of the year!
CBC proudly announces the streaming of the bout for free on http://www.asianboxing.info/ worldwide*

Date March 16th from 16:00 (Japan time)
*For domestic audiences, the program will be available on TBS Network 28 channels.

Kosei Tanaka became the quickest fighter to become a 3 weight world champion, doing so in his 12th professional, bout last September. The bout with Sho Kimura was wild and Kosei won the title by a hair. The bout itself was chosen as the WBO's Best Fight of 2018, and was widely regarded as one of the best fights of the year by independent publications, and was a great opportunity for Kosei to show his exciting style to boxing fans all over the world.

Kosei had been keen to face Ryoichi Taguchi, who won WBA Light Flyweight Champion, for years. The best chance came in 2017 however plans were cancelled due to Kosei suffering a serious injury in September that year. During Kosei's time recovering from his injury, Ryoichi defeated Milan Melindo on new year's eve 2017 and became Japan's most recent unified champion, adding the IBF title to his collection.

Since then, Ryoichi has lost the Light Flyweight belts and now is heading to the Flyweight division, and the WBO title. Kosei says the bout with Ryoichi is ?destiny? and he states the fight will be his best bout.

As a boxer from the Chubu region, CBC supports Kosei from his debut. Our mission is to build his fan base from different countries and we strongly hope the streaming will increase expose between Kosei and his fans living in a variety of countries.

As well as the fantastic main event, the undercard will also be streamed to an international audience. This gives fight fans a chance to see not only the brightest talent in the Chubu region but also other emerging talents like Kento Hatanaka and Konshin Takeshima, who between them have scored 9 wins, all by knockout, and former Japanese Youth champion Takuya Mizuno.

We greatly thank Asianboxing.info, their representative Scott Graveson and all writers on Asianboxing.info, who cooperate with us from Kosei?s last bout with Sho Kimura.
