WBA flyweight champ Daiki Kameda (19-2, 11 KOs), 112, very barely kept his belt as he eked out a highly controversial split decision over totally aggressive Silvio Olteanu (11-4, 3 KOs), 112, European titlist of Romania, over twelve lousy rounds on Sunday in Saitama, Japan. The scoresheets were as follows: Jose Roberto Torres (Puerto Rico) 115-113 and Levi Martinez (US) 116-112, both for the defending champ Kameda, while Roberto Ramirez (Puerto Rico) saw it quite differently 118-110 for Olteanu. The referee was Pinit Prayadsab (Thailand).

Japanese southpaw Koki Kameda (24-1, 15 KOs), 118, acquired the vacant WBA bantamweight belt as he finally caught ex-WBA 115-pound champ Alexander Munoz (35-4, 27 KOs), 118, dropped him with a left-right combination in the last round and pounded out a unanimous decision (115-111, 116-109 and 117-109) over twelve hot frames on Sunday in Saitama, Japan. For Kameda it was his third belt in as many different divisions, but it was true Munoz wasn’t who he used to be and neither had any credentials in this 118-pound category.
