Miyo Yoshida manager calls judging in decision loss ‘a disservice to the sport’

Thank you to everyone who has reached out regarding the outcome of my October 23 International Boxing Federation(IBF) Bantamweight title match against Shurretta Metcalf.
Since receiving the offer from my promoter, DiBella Entertainment, to face Metcalf in an IBF mandatory match, my team and I have been united in refining our strategy and training diligently. Metcalf is an outstanding boxer with a unique style that leverages her physique skillfully. Learning from our earlier match, we employed a different approach than in our previous bout for this match, and with each round, our team felt increasingly confident in our path to victory.
The result was therefore very disappointing, and I am aware that it has sparked significant debate in numerous circles. Based on the fight statistics which show me out-punching her with landed punches in 8 rounds (6 of them by over 100% more punches) and tying her in the other 2 rounds, my manager has filed an objection with the IBF seeking a review and mandatory rematch.
Nevertheless, I am determined to keep looking forward. I will continue to work harder than ever, and I would be grateful for your continued support of me as a boxer.

10月23日に行われましたシュレッタ・メトカーフ選手とのInternational Boxing Federation(IBF)バンダム級タイトルマッチの結果について、多くの方にご連絡を頂き、誠にありがとうございます。
プロモーターであるディベラ・エンターテインメントから、IBFの必須試合でメトカーフと対戦するオファーを受けて以来、私とチームは一丸となって戦略を練り直し、厳しいトレーニングに励んできました。メトカーフは体格を巧みに生かした独特のスタイルを持つ優れたボクサーです。昨年のメトカーフ選手との対戦結果を教訓に、この試合では前回の試合とは異なるアプローチを採用し、我々はラウンドを重ねるごとにチームは勝利への自信を深めていきました。
それだけに結果は非常に残念であり、各方面で大きな議論を呼んでいることは承知しています。10ラウンド中、8ラウンドで私がパンチで上回り(うち6ラウンドは100%以上のパンチ差)、残りの2ラウンドで同点に追いついたという試合データに基づき、私のマネージャーがIBFに異議申し立てを行い、再審査と再戦の義務付けを求めています。
私はこれからも前を向き、より一層の努力を重ねて精進してまいる所存ですので、今後ともボクサー吉田実代を応援していただければ幸いです。
