Fuzile vs Ogawa: Vacant IBF Super Featherweight World Title on the Line
By Carlos Costa PhilBoxing.com Thu, 25 Nov 2021

Yes, the new IBF 130 lbs World Champion will be crowned this Saturday and who will he be?
It’s South Africa vs Japan in exciting boxing rumble for the world’s red ‘n golden belt this Saturday, Nov 27, at Boxing’s Mecca, the MSG, in another Eddie Hearn Promotion live on DAZN:
After winning by KO in impressive fashion his first fight in Las Vegas just last May, the skilled South African 130-pounder Azinga Fuzile (15-1, 9 KO's) has been selected to collide hard against tough, confident Japanese warrior 尾川堅一 Kenichi Ogawa (25-1, 18 KO's), the winner becoming the IBF Super Featherweight Champion of the world, and who does not want that?
Because the victorious immediately opens golden doors for himself, while joining other two super well-known unbeaten 130-pound star champions: Mexican WBC king Óscar Valdez (30-0, 23 KO's) and WBO ruler Shakur Stevenson (17-0, 9 KO's)
And Saturday who will emerge as... “the "new...”...???
Cool that Filipino 130-pounder “The Jaw Breaker” Joe Noynay (19-2-2, 8 KO’s), from the beautiful City of Bogo in Northern Cebu, is currently ranked as IBF #14 contender.
Surely Joe would not mind having a shot at the new champ. Will he be given the chance of a lifetime? We all hope so.
The interesting clash pitting Azinga Fuzile vs Kenichi Ogawa is the co-feature for the main event headlined by the super hot 135 pound world title war between Teofimo López and George Kambosos... so let’s watch, and may the Best Men Win..!!!
