Undefeated Filipino rising star Kenneth Llover takes on Japan’s Keita Kurihara for an epic boxing showdown

PhilBoxing.com




A high-stakes Bantamweight showdown is set to happen between Japan’s battle-hardened warrior, Keita Kurihara (19-8-1, 16 Kos) takes on undefeated Filipino rising star, Kenneth Llover (13-0, 8 Kos) on March 24, 2025 at Korakuen Hall, Tokyo.

Can Llover’s speed and precision overcome Kurihara’s firepower? Or will the Japanese veteran stop another challenger in his tracks?

Kurihara brings devastating knockout power (84% KO rate) and nearly a decade more pro experience, while Llover, a skilled and determined southpaw, looks to prove he belongs among the elite. With youth vs. experience, raw power vs. technical finesse, this 12-round clash is a must-watch event.

“Ken continues to improve every fight. Japan won’t be easy-Kurihara may not have a perfect record, but he’s a bigger, relentless pressure fighter that Ken has never faced before. If Ken isn’t ready, it’s going to be a long night,” notes Gerry Peñalosa, Llover’s manager.

Now, TitleHolder brings fight fans front-row access to the most thrilling boxing action, from high-stakes international showdowns to exclusive behind-the-scenes content and fighter stories.
