IBF featherweight king Angelo “El Chinito” Leo crosses the Pacific on Saturday, 24 May, making his first defence against hometown idol Tomoki “El Mexicanito” Kameda at INTEX Osaka. ProBox TV will stream the show internationally (Abema TV inside Japan), with ring walks expected around 7–8 a.m. ET / noon–1 p.m. BST.

Leo (25-1, 12 KOs) detonated a knockout-of-the-year right hand on Luis Alberto Lopez last August to become a two-division champion and now gambles his belt 6,000 miles from Albuquerque because, as he puts it, “beating a Japanese star in Japan gets Naoya Inoue’s attention.” A statement win could lure the undisputed 122-lb monster up to featherweight in 2026.

Kameda (42-4, 23 KOs) hasn’t held gold since his WBO bantam reign a decade ago, but the 33-year-old southpaw is 3-1 over the past two years and believes Osaka energy will reignite his title ambitions. Leo sparred Kameda in 2018 and 2021—“I got the better of him,” he says—yet concedes the partisan crowd and Kameda’s slick counters make this “the toughest first defence out there.”

The co-main serves up a 105-lb firefight as Filipino pressure machine Pedro Taduran (17-4-1, 13 KOs) meets Tokyo technician Ginjiro Shigeoka (11-1, 9 KOs) in an IBF minimumweight rematch. Taduran seized the belt via ninth-round stoppage last July; Shigeoka vows revenge after regrouping with a pair of knockout tune-ups.

With two world titles on the line, an early-morning U.S. broadcast and Inoue’s shadow looming, Osaka’s “3150 × Lushbomu Vol. 6” could shape both the featherweight and strawweight landscapes in one brisk Japanese afternoon.
