Five
years ago, a local boy living in Otsu, west of Kyoto, read
a publicity column of the Boxing Magazine, came to Tokyo,
and knocked the door of Kaneko Gym. The boy
is Eijiro Murata, 19, the non-professional (excluding
students) bantamweight champion. He made his new start as
professional July 2, winning the first match by 1st round
KO.
