TOKYO, JAPAN-Masamori Tokuyama, WBC super-fly champ, got married with Insoo Choi before some 900 people in attendance at Hotel New Otani in Tokyo. Tokuyama made his 6th defense by beating the top contender Gerry Penalosa on points last December, and will defend his belt against Katsushige Kawashima, a hard-hitting Japanese, in Yokohama on June 23 after enjoying his honeymoon with the pretty bride. Many ex-world champs like Fighting Harada, Hiroshi Kobayashi, Koichi Wajima, Susumu Hanagata, etc. attended the deluxe ceremony.
