    Japanese year end boxing is fun. The ring girls are a bit too skinny in my opinion, and some of the commentators get too excited, but we get good year end wars.

    Fuji Television and TBS (Tokyo Broadcasting System) always put on good free fights.

      I guess Japanese boxing is not followed much outside of japan.
      I assume it's tough to get live video feeds.

        Fan of Kohei Kono, was involved in my favourite/funniest fight of last year against Koki Kameda, always bring that fight up on Youtube when Im in need of a laugh. Not got a hope against Inoue though has he?

        Always liked the look of these Japanese NYE cards but never been able to view, Boxnation never bothers with them, thought they may have picked it up when Haskins was involved. Hopefully there'll be a stream

            you reckon corrales vs uchiyama was a fluke the first time? Havent seen corrales fight before and getting caught cold in the beginning of the fight happens from time to time.

                Also, my money is on Corrales over Uchiyama. 25 vs 37, southpaw vs orthodox and Corrales won the first fight only eight months ago via stoppage in round 2. Have to back him near evens or as a slight favorite.

                  They don't get the exposure many deserve. The one thing that I guess bothers me a bit is the AKB 48 20 year old chick they have on as guest announcer. They know nothing about boxing, and say the silliest things.
