Why the hell is Koki going to South Korea to face the #14 ranked opponent?

Is he that much of a soft serve he doesn't care?

Could they have found a lower ranked opponent? He must be getting a mega pay check.

It's kind of similar to going to ireland from england for a fight. Actually its cheaper to fly return to korea from tokyo than it is to get the train on a return from tokyo to osaka.

Kameda wouldn't be traveling if he thought this was a legitimate fight. He knows it's another cupcake "defense."
