Today, December 26, I’ll be reporting LIVE on Bombo Radyo Cauayan at 5:30 AM and Bombo Radyo Dagupan at 8:15 AM Philippine Time (+1 hour Japan Time). Who could have thought I’d be talking about boxing with challenging terminologies?! 

Well, watch my report on the WBA/WBC/IBF/WBO World Super Bantamweight Championship Unification Match/Undisputed Junior Featherweight Championship in Ariake Arena, Tokyo: NAOYA INOUE (The Monster 30-year-old Japanese: 25-0, 22KOs) versus MARLON TAPALES (The Nightmare 31-year-old Filipino: 37-3, 19KOs). When I received the request to report from two radio stations in the Philippines, I readily sent a message to my Japanese businessmen students (both company managers!) who always updated me on boxing and baseball in Japan and overseas. They relayed to me that this will be exclusively streamed live for free on Lemino NTT Docomo: http://lnkiy.in/inoueversustapales

Naoya Inoue will defend his WBC and WBO Junior Featherweight titles while opponent Marlon Tapales will defend his IBF and WBA Junior Featherweight titles. Who do you think will win?

Whos is Naoya Inoue?

 

Naoya Inoue is a Japanese professional boxer known for his exceptional skills and power in the ring. Born on April 10, 1993, he has held multiple world championships in different weight classes, including the WBA (Super), IBF, and The Ring magazine titles at bantamweight. Inoue is often referred to as “Monster” due to his knockout ability and aggressive fighting style. He gained international recognition for his performances in the World Boxing Super Series and has been praised for his technical proficiency and speed. As of my last update, he is considered one of the top pound-for-pound fighters in the world.

Who is Marlon Tapales?


Marlon Tapales is a Filipino professional boxer, born on January 15, 1992. He is known for his achievements in the super bantamweight and bantamweight divisions. Tapales gained significant recognition after winning the WBO super bantamweight title in 2016 by defeating the then-champion, Panya Pradabsri. He is known for his aggressive fighting style, power, and resilience in the ring. Throughout his career, Tapales has faced several notable opponents and has established himself as a prominent figure in Philippine boxing.

What is WBA, WBC, IBF & WBO?


The WBA (World Boxing Association), WBC (World Boxing Council), IBF (International Boxing Federation), and WBO (World Boxing Organization) are the four major sanctioning bodies in professional boxing. Here are the key differences among them:

1.  Establishment

WBA: Founded in 1921, it is the oldest boxing organization.

WBC: Established in 1963, it was created to unify the sport and ensure fair play.

IBF: Founded in 1983, it emerged as a response to the need for a more regulated boxing environment.

WBO: Established in 1988, it was created to provide opportunities for fighters from various backgrounds.

2.  Titles

Each organization awards its own world championship titles. A fighter can hold multiple titles simultaneously from different organizations, leading to the existence of various champions in the same weight class.

 

3.  Ranking Systems
  Each organization has its own criteria and methods for ranking fighters. This can lead to differences in who is considered a top contender or champion in each organization.

 

4.  Regulations and Rules
  Each body has its own set of rules and regulations governing fights, including scoring, weight classes, and championship bout requirements. While there are similarities, there can also be significant differences in how fights are officiated.

 

5.  Recognition
  The WBC and WBA are often considered the most prestigious organizations, with their titles typically seen as the most valuable. The IBF and WBO have also gained respect and recognition over the years.

 

6.  Championship Structures
 The WBA has different levels of champions, such as “Super Champion” and “Regular Champion.” The WBC, IBF, and WBO typically have a single champion per weight class.

 

These differences contribute to the complexity of professional boxing, where fighters often pursue titles from multiple organizations to enhance their careers and marketability.
