Yamaguchi, kumpiyansa a sa laban kay Iniong

HINDI man natuloy ang inaasam na pakikisagupa ni Mei “V.V.” Yamaguchi kay ONE Atomweight world champion Angela Lee, inaasahang mapapalaban ang karanasan ng Japanese fighter kay Pinay Gina Iniong sa kanilang paghaharap sa ONE: IMMORTAL PURSUIT sa Nobyembre 24 sa Singapore.

“I was told that Angela was in a car accident. I was surprised, but was so glad that she was okay. Then, I tried to keep concentrating on my training because I believe that ONE Championship was looking for another opponent,” pahayag ni Yamaguchi.

Napili ng ONE Championship ang Filipino standout na si Gina “Conviction” Iniong matapos ang impresibo nitong panalo sa nakalipas na fight card sa MOA Arena sa Manila.

Sa kabila ng kabiguang natamo kay Iniong sa kanilang unang paghaharap, iginiit ni Yamguchi na handa siya maging sino ang makaharap sa laban.

“I was glad that Gina answered ‘yes’ to the match on the Singapore card with me,” aniya. “I have always looked for a chance for revenge. T is the perfect moment.”

Najamit ni Iniong ang split decision win kay Yamaguhci sa nakalipas na pagtutuos sa ONE.

“My image of the last match was Gina getting some points with her boxing, and me with my ground game.It was back and forth, but all of my team thought I won, “aniya.

“Gina has a really good right hand she throws, and she is strong and physical. I am better with the ground game and improved more in my boxing skills compared to our previous match,” sambit ni Yamaguchi.
