WBA World Bantamweight Boxing Champion Artem Dalakyan (22-0, 15 KOs) assessed the level of mandatory challenger Seigo Akui (18-2-1, 11 KOs), with whom he will share the ring on January 23 in Osaka, Japan.
āHe lost early in his career and then went undefeated. Heās not bad, heās strong, he hits well with his right hand, he breathes. He is Japanese, and they are like samurai.
In terms of speed, Iām faster, and in terms of rigidity, plus or minus the same. His weak point is speed, and his strong point is that he is a samurai and will go to the end,ā Dalakyan said.
