Kosei Tanaka Vs Julian Yedras for WBO title!

[boxing prospect]

Been announced this morning, Tanaka (4-0, 2) will be hoping to break the Japanese national record for fewest fights to claim a world title. The record, which was set last year, is currently 6 fights and was set by Naoya Inoue.

If you've not seen Tanaka yet you've been missing out the youngster is a sensational young fighter with all the tools in his arsenal. Lightning speed, hurtful power, lovely combination puncher, amazing ring awareness.

Looks brilliant here destroying Omayao in double quick fashion



Looks even better in his fight with the world class Hara though

Yedras is a step down from Hara

Won't argue there, but Buitrago is highly regarded so it's a chance to get a "comparable result". The plan is to reunify with Takayama later in the year.

Now that will be a fight

Sounds like Tanaka and Takayama want the fight, Takayama is set to be part of the TV crew this weekend, but the IBF have apparently ordered Takayama vs Sakkreerin UK following the controversial ending to fight 1.

Anyway, just a few days to go... Come on Kosei!

I think there about the same. I thought his fight with Buitrago was a lot closer than the cards said
