There is world title action from Tokyo today when Kenshiro Teraji makes the latest defence of his WBA and WBC flyweight world titles. 

Teraji will be facing fellow countryman Seigo Yuri Akui who arrives in the Japanese capital on the back of a nine-fight winning streak. 

While the pair will be focused on their main event battle, don't be surprised if they have one eye on the chief support bout which sees Anthony Olascuaga defend his WBO flyweight title against Hiroto Kyoguchi. 

Either Teraji or Akui, if successful, will likely be looking to face the winner of this bout later this year in a unification clash.
