Kameda wins Landaeta grudge bout

Kameda left no room for complaints about his victory this time
WBA light flyweight champion Koki Kameda scored a unanimous points win in Tokyo over Venezuela's Juan Landaeta in his first title defence.

The Japanese boxer won a controversial split decision against Landaeta to win the vacant crown in August.

Kameda, 20, was unable to land the knockout punch he had promised and spent much of the fight show-boating.

But he looked a clear winner - unlike the first fight in Yokohama which Landaeta appeared to have won easily.

"I'm going to sleep with the belt tonight," said Kameda. "This is for all the people out there who don't like me."

Landaeta said: "I have to give him credit. I didn't think he won by such a large margin but he prevented me from doing what I planned to do."
