Japanese champion? what........

[GStalker]

Bakhtin, who is a citizen of Russian Federation and Russian by ethnicity, is a record-breaking Japanese champion, nevertheless. He defended his bantamweight title nine times in a row which is a national record for Japan.

Domingo would be an OK keep-busy fight but Singsurat has been KO'd in every meaningful fight he's had in the past decade. Bakhtin has been fighting for 11 years and needs a title shot or at least a fight against a legitimate contender pretty soon
