Everyone was below the limit in the weighing this Tuesday morning. The super champion Takashi Uchiyama will defend his World Boxing Association title against Jomthong Chuwatana and Ryoichi Taguchi will do the same against Kwanthai Sithmorseng, on Wednesday in the Ota City General Gymnasium, in Tokyo, Japan.

Uchiyama (22-0, 18 KO) marked 129.5 lbs (58.7 kgs) and is waiting for the opening bell to defend his WBA 130 lbs title against Chuwatana (9-0, 4 KO), who marked 129 lbs 8 eight ounces.

The Japanese won the Crown in 2010. New Zealander Ferlin Marsh will be the referee and Gustavo Jarquin (NIC), Wan Soo Yuh (KOR) and Roberto Ramírez (PUR) will add cards.

Por su parte, Tagushi (21-2-1, 8 KO), campeón 108 libras, y el retador, Sithmorseng, (49-3-1, 26 KO), número 14 del ranking, superaron la balanza también con 100 gramos de diferencia entre ambos. El monarca hizo 48,9 kilogramos y el aspirante tailandés 48,8 kilogramos, para dar 105,8 libras ambos.

On the other hand, Tagushi (2-21-1, 8 KO), 108-pound champion, and the Challenger, Sithmorseng, (49-3-1, 26 KO), N° 14 rated contender, also complied with the scale with 100 grams difference between the two. The champion made 48.9 kilograms and the Thai 48.8 kilograms, to 105.8 pounds both.

The referee will be Ramírez (PUR), and judges will be Jarquin (NIC), Yuh Soo (KOR) and Marsh (NZ).

Tagushi is champion since the last 31 December 2014 when it defeated the Peruvian Alberto Rossel.
