Great news, I'll be happy to see some bantam weights in HD given Eddie Hearn promotes Yafai. I'm wondering if this will be a mainevent or will slick Eddie put his world champion on a undercard because from Yafai's last performance he might be headed back as chief support in the billing.

Sho Ishida is going to be the second Japanese fighter in a row that Kal faces, he couldn't KO the last one but I got the feeling hes going to body Isida like Rigo vs. Hisashi Amagasa ; incidentally the size disparity of Kal and Ishida is virtually the same as the aforementioned match, the weigh-in should be funny to see.

All I know about Ishida is that he's undefeated, has anybody actually seen him fight?

Probably be the chief support on one of the UK PPVs in the second half of the year. Though Yafai did say in the interview after his last fight that he wanted his next fight in the US, be awesome if it ended up on that Super Flyweight showdown card
