Surprised I haven't seen much on here. He's only 23 years old. Doesn't look like a super elite fighter, but definitely impressive nonetheless. I don't think he can pull it off at Super Flyweight, too many good champions in that weight class, unless he can catch someone like Rungvisai when he's shot/Tanaka is prime.
He beat Sho Kimura, the guy who was brought in to lose but still stopped Shiming Zou, and then went on to succeed. Basically, Japan's version of a Joe Smith? perhaps.
His victories for the belts:
Julian Yedras [Minimumweight] vacant WBO
Moises Fuentes [Light Flyweight] vacant WBO
Sho Kimura [Flyweight] WBO
