Kazuto Ioka receives his long-awaited title unification bout and has been on eight winning streaks. Within these victories, he won the vacant WBO World Super Flyweight Title via a round 10 knockout against Aston Palicte and went on to defend it five times successfully against Jeyvier Cintron, Kosei Tanaka, Francisco Rodriguez Jr., Ryoji Fukunaga, and Donnie Nietes. He also challenged for the WBA World Super Flyweight Title against Joshua Franco via a unanimous decision and defended it against Josber Perez.

Kazuto Ioka became the first-ever Japanese fighter to win world titles in four divisions when he defeated McWilliams Arroyo in 2018 for the WBC super-flyweight title. He won the WBO super-flyweight title the following year, defeating Aston Palicte via TKO in his native Japan.

Martinez announced himself on the world stage when he defeated Jerwin Ancajas to claim his title in February 2022. Fernando Martinez has held the IBF super-flyweight title. He went on to defend this title against Jerwin Ancajas via unanimous decision and Jade Bornea via TKO. In 2019, he won against top fighters like Leandro Silva, Nicolas Aquino, and Gonzalo Garcia Duran. Martinez challenged for the WBC Silver Super Flyweight Title against Athenkosi Dumezweni and won it in some styles via a TKO in the 11th round. He boasts a professional boxing record of 16 unbeaten wins.

Kazuto Ioka is set to defend his super flyweight world title and has been in pretty good form recently. He has never been submissed or knocked out, showing that he is a master of long war. The bout will definitely go the long distance. I see this match getting to over 7.5 rounds in favor of Kazuto Ioka.
