Koeru: Junto Nakatani Document
(written by Soichi Hayashi; published by Shueisha; priced at 1,870 yen including tax), a non-fiction book delving into the formidable strength of three-division world champion Junto Nakatani (M.T), will be released on 5 March.
The narrative follows Nakatani’s journey from the moment he departed for the United States, vowing to “become a world champion,” to the fulfillment of that dream and his current trajectory toward defining superfights. This comprehensive work is the result of extensive interviews with Nakatani himself, his family, and numerous boxing figures in both Japan and the U.S. The scope of the book spans from his developmental beginnings in Los Angeles to his recent high-profile appearance in Saudi Arabia.
The author, Soichi Hayashi, is a renowned non-fiction writer best known for his previous boxing-related works, including Minority no Kobushi (Fist of the Minority) and Kamisama no Ring (God’s Ring).
