JAPAN'S Yota Sato defended his WBC super flyweight title beating Sylvester Lopez of the Philippines by a unanimous decision victory in Yokohama, Japan, yesterday.
The three judges counted it 118-110, 116-113, 119-109 all in favor of the defending champion.
"Lopez is ranked top and he has 19 wins and 15 KOs. He is really a strong fighter, so I was a bit nervous in the first round," said Sato, 28.
It was Sato's first defense of the title he wrested from Suriyan Sor Rungvisai of Thailand in March, improving his record to 25 wins, including 12 KOs, against two defeats and a draw.
The 24-year-old Lopez saw his record reduced to 19 wins, including 15 KOs, against four defeats and a draw.
