On April 29, 2026, Masahiro Miyazaki published an article highlighting the career of Akira Yaegashi, a resilient world champion who fought in 14 world title matches. Yaegashi, known for his relentless pursuit of improvement from various perspectives, is a key figure in the lineage of Japanese boxing that includes Naoya Inoue and Junto Nakatani. With a record of eight wins and six losses in world title fights, Yaegashi experienced the loss of his title three times. Yet, as long as he felt the fire of competition within him, he never stopped fighting. Over his 15-year professional career, he achieved the remarkable feat of winning titles in three different weight classes, a testament to his hard-earned glory. Now, as a trainer at Ohashi Gym, he imparts his knowledge to the next generation. His dedication to physical transformation during his career is expected to establish him as a leading figure in that field.
In past interviews, Hideyuki Ohashi, the head of Ohashi Gym, often emphasized the importance of seizing opportunities without hesitation, regardless of a boxer's experience. He would frequently cite Yaegashi as an example, who became a three-division champion despite early challenges. Before Yaegashi's first world title challenge, he had already claimed the OPBF minimumweight title in his fifth professional fight and secured a first-round KO in his first defense. This set the stage for his challenge against WBC world champion Eagle Kyowa in June 2007. Despite Yaegashi's impressive amateur background, including serving as vice-captain at Takushoku University and winning national titles, Kyowa seemed a formidable opponent. The Thai fighter, based in Japan, had a record of 17 wins with 5 KOs and was known for his technical prowess and sharp punches.
During the match, Yaegashi suffered a significant defeat, losing by a wide margin after being knocked down and sustaining two jaw fractures from an accidental headbutt. This injury sidelined him for ten months, and he faced another narrow decision loss in his second comeback fight. These setbacks cast a shadow over his career, but they ultimately became pivotal moments in his journey.
