In the midst of winter an avalanche has assaulted Japan, where our customary year-end world title shows have been postponed again and again. WBO bantamweight champ Yoshiki Takei (10-0, 8 KOs), former K-1 world titlist before his entry into the international style boxing, suffered a right shoulder injury so that his defense against unbeaten WBO#10 Yuttapong Tongdee (15-0, 9 KOs), Thailand, will be postponed until April. It was announced by Ohashi Promotions today (Wednesday).
