Nishioka vs Munroe Will Head To Japan in October

By Mark Vester

After some negotiations on where the fight would take place, WBC super bantamweight champion Toshiaki Nishioka (36-4, 23KOs) will make his mandatory defense against Rendall Munroe (21-1, 9KOs) in Tokyo, Japan at the end of October. There had been talk about the match possibly heading to England but there was more money to be made by having it in the champion's domain.
