A 30-2-1 record with 15 knockout victories is the record of Japanese boxer Kazuto Ioka. Ioka is the first Japanese boxer to ever hold world titles in four separate weight divisions. He is 34 years old. The native of Osaka, Japan, is most effective when he jabs with his right hand behind it. Ioka has excellent timing and is skilled at applying pressure to his opponents. He won six high school national titles and amassed a remarkable 95-10 record while playing at the amateur level. Ioka is hell-bent on defending his WBA World Super Flyweight Title against the fearsome Josber Perez and continuing his dominance.
Josber Perez - looking for a title belt
The fact that Josber Perez has 18 knockouts and 20 wins shows what a strong puncher he is. Since his first loss, the Venezuelan has only lost to Artem Dalakian, the perfect WBA flyweight champion, and Rober Barrera. After taking a three-year break after losing to Dalakian, Perez has come back with three amazing stoppage wins that show he is still very strong. Boxer Ioka is one of the best in Japan. He is just over 5 feet 4 inches tall and has a 64.5-inch reach. He isn't as well known outside of Asia, though, as Naoya Inoue and Junto Nakatini, who are also from Japan. He has fought 312 rounds since becoming a professional boxer in 2009. He isn't a very strong puncher because half of his wins have been by knockout, and six of his last seven fights have gone the full distance. Ioka is a world-class boxer at every level, and he has a strong head. Before he turned pro, he allegedly went 95-10 and won six national high school amateur titles.
Expert Betting Tips
While Ioka was growing up, his uncle Hiroki Ioka was a two-weight world champion and the first fighter to win the WBC Minimumweight World Title after it was created in 1987. Anyone can't miss an Ioka win because he has fought at a higher level and beat Franco and the veteran Filipino boxer Donnie Nietes. He's a good boxer with good power who likes to fight close up and put pressure on the head and body with precise combos. Perez is strong, so you shouldn't underestimate him. However, with Ioka back at home, he should be able to keep his title, though it might take a long time.
