TOKYO, JAPAN
WBA female super-fly champ Zhang Xi Yan (7-1, 2 KOs), out of China, will put her belt on the line against up-and-coming Japanese girl Tsunami Tenkai (12-3, 4 KOs) at the Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan, on February 5.
Zhang acquired the vacant belt by outscoring Korean Hana Kim by a unanimous decision in Chengdu, China, in October of the previous year. It is the first time that the Chinese girl defends her throne here in Japan.
