Didn't Kameda just sign with Haymon after the KO on Showtime?

Hopefully it gets on Showtime

I've only seen Kameda fight that one time on the Canelo-Lara undercard but I was impressed by him. That body shot KO was nasty... Hopefully the Haymon signing gets him more exposure on US networks

Good for them getting this kind of money. Hernandez is a journeyman who has no real chance of beating Kameda, but at least he'll get paid well to lose.

Kameda is a beast, I am looking forward to see him in action after that KO Of the year candidate bodyshot KO.

I don't care if his opponent has 10 losses

I believe this is a result of the Chinese market. Why did they bid so much? They have it. I know Kameda is Japanese, but a market that big bleeds money.
