There’s no stopping Giemel Magramo and his camp from pursuing Japan’s rising boxing sensation Junto Nakatani.
Even after having their proposed bout canceled five times due to the COVID-19 pandemic, both parties finally came to a mutual agreement and will setup a highly-anticipated showdown on November 6 at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan.
Magramo and Nakatani will be squaring-off for the vacant WBO flyweight championship after seven months of negotiation and finalizing talks.
Hailed as one of the emerging stars in Japanese boxing, Nakatani currently holds a perfect record of 20-0 with 15 wins coming by way of knockout.
On the other hand, Magramo who is 24-1, earned his name in the business after knocking out former two-division world champion Milan Melindo, will try to rust Nakatani’s untainted record.
Most boxing analysts predict a stoppage in the bout as both fighters are knockout artists and expect the match to be fast-paced and explosive.
