The story
In the featherweight 10-round main event of “3150FIGHT11” (September 23, Osaka’s Sumiyoshi Ward Community Center), a card promoted by Koki Kameda, his cousin Kyonosuke Kameda (27) faced Mexico’s Sebastian Hernandez (25) — the man who gave Junto Nakatani serious trouble — and lost by 1-2 decision. Since it was a home fight, opinions on 5channel were split between “he put up a better fight than expected” and “it was one-sided,” with some also questioning the scoring after only one of the three judges had Kyonosuke ahead.
The boxing promotion “3150FIGHT11,” run by former three-division world champion Koki Kameda (39), was held on the 23rd at Osaka’s Sumiyoshi Ward Community Center.

What people said
But one judge actually scored it for Kameda
Even the Kameda fanboy types in the comments seemed rattled by that
You'd lose on points for sure
Okay, that's laying it on a bit thick lol
Yeah, his facial bones look like they're made of granite
That should be criminal
Guess he's not that strong after all
This guy's freakish stamina and toughness make him a nightmare matchup
Well, that's a deeper division than flyweight or bantamweight at least
Kids, especially middle and high schoolers, would definitely tune in
Definitely stronger than 'Number Three' (the youngest Kameda brother's nickname)
Though they've got zero punching power lol
The eldest brother, the only one with any real talent, is the one with the weak chin
Funny how it never works out
But they had zero effect
That guy's toughness is just not normal
If he were 10cm shorter this might've gone differently
Somebody get this guy a title shot
It was actually a solid fight and the crowd was into it
He held up pretty well against the same guy who gave Nakatani serious trouble
He was running away the whole time even while losing
Don't post if you didn't actually watch it
Well, that's understandable
Even by the records, the opponent was already the better fighter going in
Though I figured he'd get dropped in the later rounds, he actually held up surprisingly well
'He tried hard' doesn't change anything
A loss is a loss
That's the old copypasta that was popular back when the eldest brother was still fighting (´・ω・`)
Didn't know that
I don't think Kyonosuke would win even if they ran it back 10 times
Idiots assume you're a Kameda fanboy unless you're bashing him
Just ignore them
Casual fans are still stuck on the image from over a decade ago
This fight has nothing to do with TBS or the WBA, and people are still yelling 'fixed fight'
Time to update your mental database a little, lol
It's a genuinely novel idea, and the toughness that makes it possible is incredible
But the gap between the judge who scored it for Kyonosuke and the other two is way too wide
Whoever scored that fight for Kyonosuke, given how it actually looked, has to be out of their mind
Even the ABEMA commentators had clearly given up on the score being competitive and stopped bothering to call who won rounds 9 and 10
So what?
That's just how boxing judging always goes
There's always some judge scoring the exact opposite way, year in and year out
Background and key points of this discussion
This bout took place at a self-promoted event in Osaka owned by Koki Kameda himself. His opponent, Hernandez, is a legitimate contender who this year took WBO world minimumweight champion Junto Nakatani to a razor-close decision — though this matchup was fought at featherweight. Since 10-round bouts are scored by three judges, the “1-2” result means only one of the three judges scored the fight in Kyonosuke’s favor. The Kameda family has a history of judging controversies that became a wider social issue during past world title bouts, and that memory is part of why questions about the scoring kept resurfacing in this thread. That said, no reporting has suggested anything improper about this particular decision, and opinions in the thread ranged widely — from “a close fight and a good showing” to “it was one-sided.” The round-by-round scoring breakdown hasn’t been made public, so which view is closer to the truth largely comes down to individual impressions from those who watched the footage.
