IBF#9 Ryang-Ho Han (6-1, 3 KOs; amateur 52-19, 12 stoppages) 115, a Japan-based Korean, dethroned OPBF super flyweight champ Kyotaro Yoshida (8-5, 4 KOs), 114.75, by a hairline decision (96-94 twice, 95-95) over ten hard-fought rounds on Wednesday in Tokyo, Japan. The 5’8” Han, a Japan-based Korean skillful speedster, fought the defending champ toe-to-toe to exchange hot rallies all the way, piling up more points with better precision.
