Title fight off of Naoya Inoue vs. Alan Picasso card
Ring V: Inoue vs Picasso on DAZN PPV - Saturday
A significant title fight is off Saturday's Ring V as IBF super flyweight champion Willibaldo Garcia's defense against Kenshiro Teraji.
The bout is off as Garcia became ill after Friday's weigh-in and was transported to the hospital. A late replacement is being sought to face off with Teraji, who wants to remain on the card.
Garcia, who looked weight drained on the scales, came in at 113.9 pounds while Teraji weighed 114.5.
Garcia was looking to successfully defend his IBF belt for the first time after capturing it in a split decision win over Rene Calixto Bibiano back in May from Mexico. Teraji was looking to become a three-division world champion.
