Additionally, Joshua's victory over Oscar Negrete to claim the GBP Championship via split decision highlights his ability to overcome tough challenges and emerge as the victor. One impressive aspect of Joshua Franco's career is his undefeated record in title challenges.

Kazuto Ioka's recent winning streak is a testament to his exceptional skills and experience in the ring. With six consecutive victories, he has proven his dominance in the super flyweight division. His crowning moment came in 2019, when he challenged Aston Palicte for the WBO World Super Flyweight title, securing a remarkable knockout victory in the 10th round. Kazuto continued his winning ways by successfully defending his title against formidable opponents like Jeyvier Cintron, Kosei Tanka, Francisco Rodriguez Jr., Ryoji Fukunaga, and Donnie Nietes.

Not content with just one championship, Kazuto went on to claim the WBA World Flyweight Title, defeating Juan Carlos Reveco, Keyvin Lara, Yutthana Kaensa, and Narast Aiening. He further solidified his status as a top contender by capturing the WBC Silver Super Flyweight Title against McWilliams Arroyo.

As he prepares for his forthcoming match, he will undoubtedly rely on his experience and championship pedigree to secure another victory and continue his impressive winning streak.

Ioka is going to be under a lot of pressure from Franco, and Franco is going to throw a lot of punches, so Ioka's defensive abilities and his ability to cope with this situation are going to be put to the test. It will be difficult for Franco's aggressive style to prevail in the ring due to Ioka's superior technical talent and knowledge. The outcome of their most recent confrontation provides insight into how close this one will be. While I feel that Ioka's degree of experience will give him the upper hand in this situation, I will therefore be rooting for his victory. In the meantime, this is going to definitely be a challenging bout, and as a result, it is going to be a lengthy one. Another option that might be taken into consideration is betting on Ioka to win by decision.
