Kamegai to Collide with Soto-Karass in Rematch on HBO Sep. 10

With one excellent fight already behind them, it looks like Yoshihiro Kamegai and Jesus Soto-Karass will meet again on Sep. 10. Their eagerly-awaited rematch will bolster the Roman Gonzalez vs. Carlos Cuadras event at the Fabulous Forum just outside Los Angeles.

The two junior middleweights first met back in April in a battle that was as close as they come. The back-and-forth brawl remains a candidate for fight of the year and other than the fact at how exciting it was, there isn’t a true winner just yet. Soto-Karass and Kamegai fought to majority draw and the Japanese fighter can’t wait to fight his rival again.

“I am very grateful [for] this rematch and honored to be on the Roman Gonzalez - Carlos Cuadras undercard at the Fabulous Forum,” said Yoshihiro Kamegai (26-3-2, 23 KOs). “Jesus Soto-Karass and I had a great fight in April. I have a lot of respect for Soto-Karass. He is a warrior. I hope to put on another exciting fight with him in front of the great Southern California Boxing Fans.”

Similarly, Soto-Karass is eager to do it again but this time he hopes there will be a clear-cut victor.

“I am excited to come back to the ring against such a great warrior like Yoshihiro Kamegai,” said Jesus Soto-Karass (28-10-4, 18 KOs). “We put on a great show in April and I am sure we will deliver another great show in September. We are both great warriors who come forward and are willing to leave it all in the ring. This re-match will serve for one of us to finally emerge victorious, as we give the fans of Los Angeles a fight of a lifetime.”

HBO will televise the action beginning at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.
