OSAKA, Japan - World Boxing Council (WBC) super flyweight champion Masamori Tokuyama (in file photo) will put his title on the line for the eighth time against top-ranked Russian Dimitri Kirilov early January in Osaka, his manager said Sept. 1. The 28-year-old (North) Korean resident of Japan, whose real name is Hong Chang Su, beat Katsushige Kawashima last June in Yokohama for his seventh defense of the title he wrested from South Korea's Cho In Ju in August 2000.
