Tajima's debut to be rescheduled following back pain
Yesterday we saw the unfortunate news break from Japan that the scheduled bout between former Japanese amateur standout Mitsuro Tajima (0-0) [但馬ミツロ] and reigning Japanese Heavyweight champion Ryu Ueda (9-1-1, 5) [上田龍] had been cancelled.
The bout, which was scheduled to take place on June 27th, has had to be called off as Tajima has been suffering from back pain, leaving him unable to train properly for the contest, and needing to cancel it.
Despite the bout being cancelled, the show it's self will go ahead as planned, with the Japanese Youth title fight between Tom Mizokoshi (8-2-1, 4) [溝越 斗夢], the Japanese Youth Super Bantamweight champion, and Haruki Ishikawa (8-3, 6) [石川春樹], now being the main event of the show.
