Dubois is just going through the list of current/former WBO regional belt holders that are currently/formerly ranked in the top 15 and hold no threat. Cojanu, Tetteh and Fujimoto. Junior Fa or Demsey McKean next?

Kyo is a bit of a pretty boy isn't he

Unless you’re attracted to road kill.

Fujimoto fell apart in 5 rounds against former Tongan rugby player, Solomon Haumono way back in 2012. He's since fought absolute nobodies in the hope a good payday would eventually materialize. He looks like a blown up middleweight who's had too many protein shakes, and is a total non-puncher.

Opponent looks like a club fighter. Dubois would get a better test fighting someone like Kamil Sokolowski.

Kyo could beat him under K1 rules though, he is the badder man of the two

Don't discount Haumono. Sure he is a C level guy, but a solid C level guy. And he can crack.
I do agree about Fuji's resume
Cripes.
DD will blast this paper puffed resume in 2 rounds or less. Which is about how much I care about it

Dude literally runs in the ring

At least we won't have to see Fujimoto in any rankings after this blow out. So we have that going for us!

Fr*nk is just too kind, a nice Christmas turkey for dynamite Dan.

He’s going to mount Fuji

Ye Gods he’s going to get folded like a cheap deckchair...

I hope not in the ring

I'm sure the fight will be called off for either injury or failed drug test

Why do you think that?

Why not?
Seems like half the fights announced are canceled at the last minute

Dub really still only have 13 fights? Maybe since all of them have been on TV it made me think that he had more than he did.

Loads of Kyotaro footage here - http://www.asianboxing.info/videos/cate ... o-fujimoto including his bouts against Nobuhiro Ishida (yes the guy that iced Kirkland) and his one from the other week

It’ll probably last longer than the fight if he did

A first in British boxing though, an undefeated Japanese heavyweight champion to fight in a main event,

A former Japanese Heavyweight champion, with a loss ;)

Are they hoping for Japanese to come through and support? How is this gonna do any kind of good business that close to Christmas?

He's undefeated as heavyweight champion of Japan.

Of course he has been beaten, they have been talking about it up in this thread.

The "former" part of my comment relates to the fact he vacated the title, there will be a new champion crowned before he fights Dubois.

The better talking up point, if that was what you were doing, would be surely "the man that unified the Japanese title with the Orientals and WBO Asia Pacific champion, in fact he's the the first man to unify those 3 titles"
