JAPAN DOUBLE-HEADER: KENSHIRO (ON THE LEFT) AND NAKATANI DEFEND BELTS SEP 18 IN TOKYO. By Fightnews ASIA.

Japanese world champion stars Kenshiro Teraji and Junto Nakatani are en route to defend their respective world titles on Monday, September 18, at the Ariake Sport Arena in Tokyo, Japan.

In the man event, “The Amazing Boy” Kenshiro Teraji 寺地拳四朗 (21-1, 13 KO’s), will defend his unified WBA/WBC Light Flyweight crowns against mandatory challenger former champ Hekkie Budler (35-4, 11 KO’s) of South Africa.

Its a battle in which the younger, more powerful Nippon warrior seem to have the advantage over the veteran tactician.

Kenshiro, 31, looked fast and riveting in his successful stoppage victory over Mexican-American challenger Anthony Olascuaga last April.

Will he be equally triumphant against the experienced Hekkie Budler too?

in the co-feature, unbeaten WBO Super Flyweight World Champion Junto Nakatani 中谷潤人(25-0, 19 KO’s) will put his brown and golden strap on the line of fire against Mexican challenger Argi Cortes (25-3-2, 10 KO’s).

Nakatani will be back in Japan after a fantastic destruction of Australian Andrew Moloney last May in Las Vegas,

The exciting world-title double-header in in Tokyo, Japan, on Monday September 18 is another promotion of Japanese Hall-of-Fame promoter Akihiko Honda 本田 明彦, head of Teiken Promotions 帝拳ボクシングジム. May the Best Men Win!
