World Boxing Council bantamweight champion Shinsuke Yamanaka fights young brash, hard hitting and ambitious Mexican Luis Nery on August 15th at Shimadzu Arena in Kyoto, Japan.
Shinsuke, in his last fight, defended his title by knocking out Carlos Carlson in the seventh round, in March. That was the twelfth defense of his crown, the second longest streak ever by a Japanese World champion.
Unfazed and un-amazed Nery has been WBC Continental Americas and Silver champion. He has defeated rivals Carlos Fontes, Jether Oliva, John Mark Apolinaro, Martín Casillas, David “Tornado” Sánchez, Richie Mepranum, Raymond Tabugon, Jesús Martínez, among others.
Yamanaka will have to overcome a fresh, tough, aggressive and highly capable opponent. And Nery is a left-handed, undefeated and hungry.
