WBC: Shinsuke Yamanaka must defend bantamweight title against Abner Mares

Yamanaka is a decent fighter, a southpaw. He's a bit too easy to hit and I don't think he'll last too long with Mares.

His fight with Ryosuke Iwasa was one of the better fights this year.

Won't last too long if mares attacks the balls.

Wonder what mares does next.

Dump the IBF belt and fight this guy for the WBC.

I want to see Mares-Donaire. I think Donaire beats him, but think it will be a real war. Can't predict anything with these 2 guys. They both bring it and give their all.

I've never seen Yamanaka. Just looked at his boxrec. Both him and Mares got good ko power, should be a good fight. i got Mares winning by killer instinct. Kid really goes in for the kill.

Go after that WBC belt and call out Donaire. Didn't think he'd beat Agbeko again, the kid is the real deal.

If he goes after the WBC belt will the IBF take their belt away from him?
