Hiroto Kyoguchi and Esteban Bermudez both stepped on an official commission scale for the first time in more than a year. Neither fighter had any difficulty in making weight despite a long layoff for each, ahead of their WBA junior flyweight title consolidation bout. Both boxers weighed 107.8 pounds, under the 108-pound divisional limit for their scheduled twelve-round contest which airs live on DAZN from Domo Alcalde in Guadalajara, Mexico (Friday, 8:00 p.m, ET).

As BoxingScene.com previously reported, Hiroto Kyoguchi will defend his WBA light flyweight titles against Esteban Bermudez at the Arena Coliseo in Mexico City, Mexico on Friday June 10, live worldwide on DAZN, in the latest installment of Matchroom and DAZN’s fight series in Mexico, in association with Canelo Promotions and Clase Y Talento.
A title consolidation fight nearly a year in the making finally has a date. BoxingScene.com has confirmed that terms have been reached for the long-ago ordered clash between two-division and reigning WBA “Super” junior flyweight titlist Hiroto Kyoguchi and ‘World’ titlist Esteban Bermudez of Nezahualcoyotl.
Another delay has come in the proposed title consolidation clash between Hiroto Kyoguchi and Esteban Bermudez. This one has not only pushed back the purse bid hearing but the fight itself. A yet-to-heal injury endured by Japan’s Kyoguchi (15-0, 10KOs) has forced the reigning WBA “Super” junior flyweight titlist to bow out of his ordered fight with Mexico’s Bermudez (14-3-2, 10KOs), who holds the secondary WBA “World” junior flyweight titlist. The development has prompted the sanctioning body to call another title fight in the interim—a rematch between Bermudez and former title claimant Carlos Canizales.
Yet another deadline has passed without a deal in place for an ordered title consolidation clash between Hiroto Kyoguchi and Esteban Bermudez.
Matchroom Boxing now has less than a week to deliver contracts for a fight that has been the works for months. A final deadline of January 7 has been set for proof of firm plans in place for the WBA junior flyweight title consolidation bout between WBA “Super” champion Hiroto Kyoguchi and “World” titlieholder Esteban Bermudez. Both parties and event promoter Eddie Hearn were notified by the sanctioning body on December 29 of a ten-day period assigned to provide signed contracts and with the fight to take place no later than February 9.
Unbeaten Japanese WBA 108-pound (super) world champion Hiroto Kyoguchi will travel all the way to Mexico to battle tough Mexican Esteban Bermudez, who is the WBA's regular champion at 108, in an interesting clash of civilizations on January 15.
