About this card

An electric atmosphere of elite championship boxing descends upon Tokyo as the Ryogoku Kokugikan plays host to a monumental triple-header at U-Next Boxing 6. The primary hurdle for the stacked card of local fighters is maintaining technical precision under the absolute immense pressure of a global broadcast spotlight while facing fierce international opposition hungry for upset glory. The objective for pound-for-pound star Kenshiro Teraji is to dominate the center of the ring against Mexico's Israel Gonzalez, establishing his lightning-quick jab and lateral mobility to secure a historic world title in his third distinct weight class. Concurrently, the mission for former world champion Daigo Higa centers on pushing a relentless, high-volume tempo in his explosive domestic bantamweight title showdown with heavy-handed Riku Masuda, rounding out an incredible evening where tactical boxing mastery is required from the opening bell.
