Japan's Kazuto Ioka, who announced his retirement last December after winning world titles in three separate weight classes, said Friday he is returning to the ring. The 29-year-old will move his base to Los Angeles, where he is scheduled to fight a super flyweight bout on September 8 - as part of the Superfly 3 card, which is being televised by HBO.

The shortest retirement ever, methinks.

That'd be Salido.

He's at least top 10 in superfly division

Great addition to the Superfly series, I didn’t see this one coming. Looking forward to see him on the show

I knew it! Kazuto lost his interest in the sport when then 'Super-Champion' Juan Francisco Estrada bailed on the purse-bid to solidify WBA Flyweight title last year ; Juan instead moved up to 115 chasing 'Chocolatito'. Looks like Ioka vs. Estrada is still a possibility!!! and OMG if the opponent for 'Superfly 3' is Roman Gonzalez! This is SICK!!!

Gonzalez is rumored to be on the Canelo-GGG II card. With Nietes-Palicte possibly being on Superfly 3, it's starting to shape up really well.

I see Donnie Nietes vs. Aston Palicte scheduled on boxrec for the Inglewood forum. If HBO can get Juan Fransico Estrada vs. McWilliam Arroyo as the undercard and Kazuto Ioka vs. TBA thats a hell of a card. Shocked because I thought Nietes vs. Palicte would be big in the Philippines.

Its ideal that Canelo vs. GGG II. is on the same month as 'Superfly' 3 because if Nelo fails a PED test or if the event is canceled again it wont affect Chocolatito -- RG can just switch cards.

Make the comeback against Chocolatito...
