Kenshiro Teraji returns

Light fly champion of the World Boxing Council Kenshiro Teraji (17-0, 10 KO), will defend his crown against the mandatory challenger Tetsuya Hisada (34-10-2, 20 KO) on April 24 at the EDION Arena from Osaka, Japan.

Teraji has defended the title seven times since he won it from Mexican Ganigan Lopez in 2017. Five of those successful defenses came by knockout.

The champion had planned to fight in December but had some personal problems that kept him away from the ring.

Kenshiro is currently fully focused on this fight and training to continue reaping triumphs in his successful career.

This will be a solid test for Teraji after a long pause, as his most recent fight was against Filipino Randy Petalcorin in December 2019.
