Maybe he's going to cherry pick the retired middleweight Ryoka Murata? Don't think there's anyone ranked even by the alphabet organizations at 168 from Japan...

Wagyu power! Asian Pacific/ Mexico alliance steady staying paid

Scull-Shishkin winner better be ready for the quick turn around lol

I've got many things I want to say about this idea, but to summarize...why? Like seriously Ohashi...why????????
If not Murata, are they gonna bring up fringe 154 contender Takeshi Inoue (unrelated to Naoya) up to 168 or some BS like that? Or a friggin kickboxer crossplatform into boxing?

I'm almost praying it was actually Saudi coming in and not Ohashi going insane, and they are doing Inoue-MJ and Canely-Mbilli or something a tad more semi-respectable?

[JOITATS]

There are literally no Japanese supermiddleweights.
Murata aint coming out of retirement.

If Canelo fights, it's gonna be vs another non-jp fighter... but i would imagine an American would make the most sense.


It's a smart way to cross promote 2 massive audiences.

I'm legit fearing the realistic possibility of him fighting a Japanese kickboxer around that weight class under boxing rules or some crap gimmick like that. Japan has a lot of kickboxers that are heavier weight classes, compared to boxers.

...Seriously Ohashi, why????

Caleb Plant getting an interim title shot against a guy I never heard of coming off a loss is pretty su****ious, they gonna throw him back in there with Canelo?
