Command Analysis

Angelo Leo

Current form

Angelo Leo shocked the world last August by knocking out Luis Alberto Lopez in the tenth round and taking the IBF belt. The 31-year-old from Las Vegas has a record of 25-1, of which 12 wins are by knockouts. Three of his last four fights ended before the bell. But don't think he's just talking about punches — eight of the last 12 fights have reached the judges' notes, showing that he knows how to keep his distance and bite out rounds. With a height of 168 cm and an arm span of 174 cm, he is slightly inferior to Gum in height, but wins in arm length.

Leo broke into the pros in 2012 after a bright amateur career, having played 165 rounds. He started slowly, but then he blew away guys like Eduardo Baez, Mike Plagna, Nicolas Polanco and Mark John. In 2019, he took the WBO NABO belt, and in 2020 he became the WBO world champion, defeating Tramaine Williams. Yes, Stephen Fulton took the title away from him in 2021, but after that Leo gave out a series of five victories, including the knockout over Lopez.

Tomoki Kameda

Current form

Tomoki Kameda is a Japanese samurai who knows the ring like his home. With a 42-4 record and 23 knockouts, he went 337 rounds and turned on his old aggression again. He finished three of his last four fights ahead of schedule, recalling how he won the WBO title in 2013. Last August, he took revenge on Lerato Dlamini, winning by split decision in ten rounds, after losing to the same Dlamini in 2023. His failures — twice against Jamie McDonnell and once against Ray Vargas — were stubborn, without knockouts.

The 33-year-old Kameda, the younger brother of the famous Koki and Daiki, with a height of 171 cm and an arm span of 170 cm, will fight in his native Osaka. His experience, titles and the support of the stands are a serious trump card. He likes to move forward, and his style is like a storm that sweeps everything away if you let it run wild.

Leo is the bookmakers' favorite, and it's clear why: his knockout over Lopez was like a bolt from the blue, and recent fights show that he is at his peak. But Kameda is not just a rival, he is a Japanese warrior who fights at home in Osaka, where the stands will drive him forward. Both guys have strong jaws— neither one has been knocked out. Both like to fight, set the pace, and their technique is like two masters drawing in the ring. Leo is younger, progressing, and his arm swing gives him a trump card. Kameda is more experienced, and his aggression in recent fights is a warning: he is ready to fight. But the Japanese's form has been uneven in recent years, and Leo is now flying like a rocket. It's going to be a hard fight where everything can be decided in the later rounds. If Angelo keeps his cool and repeats at least half of what he showed with Lopez, he will take the victory. Kameda will give a fight, but I believe in the American — his youth and accuracy will outweigh.

Our prediction is that Leo will win on points in 1.74
