All Star Boxing, Inc. Signs Undefeated Japanese Prospect Yuga Ozaki to Multi-Year Promotional Agreement

PhilBoxing.com




All Star Boxing partners with former WBO World Champion Masayuki Ito and Treasure Boxing Promotion to guide Ozaki toward world title contention

Miami, Florida - April 26, 2026 - All Star Boxing, Inc., led by Felix "Tuto" Zabala, has announced the signing of undefeated Japanese light flyweight prospect Yuga Ozaki to a multi-year promotional agreement.

The signing marks another step in All Star Boxing's continued international expansion and its commitment to developing elite talent from around the world. Ozaki, a talented southpaw from Japan, is regarded as one of the promising young fighters in the light flyweight division.

Ozaki holds an undefeated professional record of 8-0-1 with 6 knockouts and has already earned regional recognition, including the WBC Youth World Light Flyweight title and the WBO Asia Pacific Light Flyweight title.

Ozaki is scheduled to return to the ring on Sunday, May 24, 2026, in the Philippines, where he will face Jonathan Refugio in an 8-round light flyweight bout at the Elorde Sports Center.

As part of Ozaki's long-term development, All Star Boxing has joined forces with Masayuki Ito, the former WBO World Super Featherweight Champion, who is now part of Japan's new generation of boxing promoters through Treasure Boxing Promotion. Ito captured the vacant WBO World Super Featherweight title in July 2018 in Kissimmee, Florida, on an ESPN show co-promoted by All Star Boxing.

"I have known Masayuki Ito for more than six years, and we worked together when he won the WBO World Super Featherweight title on an ESPN show in Kissimmee, Florida, co-promoted by All Star Boxing," said Felix "Tuto" Zabala, President of All Star Boxing, Inc. "We have been good friends ever since. Ito is a hard worker, a true boxing person, and part of the new generation of promoters in Japan. I am very proud to join forces with him as we work together to guide Yuga Ozaki toward a world title opportunity."

The collaboration between All Star Boxing and Treasure Boxing Promotion is designed to provide Ozaki with strategic career development, international exposure, and the opportunities necessary to move him toward world title contention.

"Yuga Ozaki has the talent, discipline, and character to become a world champion," Zabala added. "Japan has produced many great champions, and we believe Ozaki has the potential to become one of the country's next boxing stars. This partnership gives him the right team and the right plan to take his career to the highest level."

The May 24 bout against Refugio will represent the next important step in Ozaki's progression as All Star Boxing, Treasure Boxing Promotion, and their partners continue building his path toward a world title opportunity.
