(NOV 9) The weigh-in will be held today
at 4:00 p.m. [Tokyo Time], for a boxing card that will take place on
November 10, 2007, at the Shinjuku FACE, in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan.
Angel Bovee of Team Saccurato sent a photo of the press
conference of Saccurato and Raika and a photo of the fight poster.
New York's Saccurato will be fighting Raika, of Japan, for the WIBA
Lightweight title.
Bovee told WBAN, "The card is full of
women's bouts and is a fundraiser for the orphanage that Raika grew
up in. It is a sold out crowd. The bouts will also be televised (but
not live) in Japan. The fight poster is very cool!"
Other women's bouts on the card:
Strawweights Marika Watanabe vs. Satoko Kamimura - Six Rounds;
flyweight Kazumi Izaki vs. Manami Arima - eight rounds.
