On April 23, HOZUMI HASEGAWA CUP, an event organized by former boxing world champion Hozumi Hasegawa, will be held at Meriken Park (Chuo-ku, Kobe). Admission is free.

A sparring competition will be held at a special outdoor ring set up in the park for those who have entered in advance and wish to participate.
Former world boxing champion Hozumi Hasegawa
This event was planned with the aim of enlivening the gyms that have been affected by the new Corona.
The first event, held at Kobe Harbor Studio last November, featured 29 fights in all, as well as a special sparring session between Hasegawa, a world champion in three weight classes, and Takahiro Awai, a world champion in two weight classes.

Prior to the event, original T-shirts, caps, and tickets for sponsor seats to watch the sparring up close were available for purchase on the official supporting goods sales website.
＜Message from Hozumi Hasegawa＞
We will be holding the second HOZUMI Cup tournament. This will be our first outdoor event and we will make it a great success. It will be free for spectators, so please come and support us! ＜
I am so looking forward to seeing the outdoor ring set up in Meriken Park! Boxing fans will be able to recognize the “left hand of God” that will appear in the special sparring event.
