Inoue vs Tsutsumi: A Guide to Watching the Boxing Match Live from Anywhere.
Inoue defends his WBA flyweight title.
Takuma Inoue is preparing to defend his WBA bantamweight world title against the undefeated Seiya Tsutsumi in an event that promises to be exciting in Tokyo. Takuma, the younger brother of Naoya Inoue, known as one of the best boxers in the world, has been forging a remarkable career of his own. He won the title in 2023 by unanimous decision against Liborio Solis and brutally knocked out former IBF world champion Jerwin Ancajas in his first defense. He then achieved a significant victory over Sho Ishida in May.
Takuma's next opponent, Tsutsumi, is a 28-year-old Japanese boxer who has shown he has devastating knockout power, with eight of his eleven wins coming by this method. His last bout was particularly notable, stopping young Thai prospect Weerawat Noolae in the fourth round. Given the scale of this fight, Tsutsumi is expected to start the match with great energy.
