Longtime 108-lb titlist Teraji claims vacant flyweight belt with late stoppage over Canelo stablemate Rosales
Following a lengthy reign across two title tenures at 108 pounds, Kenshiro Teraji could no longer make the weight at age 32 and moved up to flyweight Sunday in the co-feature to Takuma Inoue vs. Seiya Tsutsumi at Ariake Arena in Tokyo, Japan. “The Amazing Boy” was visibly undersized against veteran Cristofer Rosales in their meeting for the vacant WBC 112-pound belt, but he had every other possible advantage, and used his tremendous footwork, hand speed, sharp jab, and straighter punches to bloody Rosales’ nose and prevail by stoppage after 10 lopsided rounds.
