Timeline

Tsuyoshi Hamada (浜田 剛史) is a retired Japanese professional boxer who is a former WBC world junior welterweight champion.

Hamada was born in Nakagusuku, Okinawa, and began boxing at the age of fifteen.

1978

He won the Japan's inter-high school championship in the featherweight division in 1978.

He had an amateur record of 37–6 (28 KOs).

1979

Having turned professional in 1979, he made his debut under his real name Tsuyoshi Hamada, written as 浜田 剛, in Tokyo on May 21.

1981

Hamada fractured his left hand four times since 1981, and received bone grafting twice.

Then, he was not able to fight for two years.

Hanging his left arm with a triangular bandage, he hit a punching bag only with his right fist.

1983

His ring name was changed into 浜田 剛史, pronounced the same, in 1983.

1984

In 1984, after two away matches in Los Angeles, Hamada fought against the former WBA world lightweight champion Claude Noel to knock him out in the fourth round at the Korakuen Hall on September 9.

He gained the Japanese lightweight title on December 2 of that year.

1985

In 1985, after setting a Japanese record of fifteen consecutive knockout wins, he also captured the OPBF lightweight title in Naha, Okinawa, in the next fight on July 7.

However, as he had damaged the meniscus of his right knee before that match, his boxing career was interrupted again.

Originally Hamada excelled in the left cross, but during a long period that he underwent medical treatment for his fist injury, he intensively practiced the right hook which brought him a championship belt.

1986

On July 24, 1986, Hamada moved up in weight division and knocked out René Arredondo who exceeded him four inches respectively in height and reach, in the first round to gain the WBC world junior welterweight title.

In his first defense on December 2 of that year, he beat Ronnie Shields who had 270 amateur fights including a victory over Thomas Hearns, by a split decision.

Three months before the fight for the world title in 1986, a meniscus injury which requires a surgery was discovered as a result of the arthroscopy of his right knee.

Although Hamada was aware that the anesthetic effect would not persist, he asked a doctor to do it immediately and had surgery without complaining of a pain.

As of twenty years after retirement, his knee still ACHES.

"My body is always painful. I recognize being painful is my body, so I am all right," Hamada says with smile.

Currently Hamada is a commentator of the boxing broadcast on Nippon Television and WOWOW.

He monthly writes a review which analyzes the world's leading boxers for the Japanese boxing magazine Boxing Beat, and is also the representative director of the company that manufactures and sells health foods and supplements.

1987

On July 22, 1987, he rematched Arredondo in his second defense where he lost the title via a sixth-round technical knockout.

Those three world title matches were all held at the Ryōgoku Kokugikan in Tokyo, and one million spectators altogether attended them.

He aimed at the recapture of the title, but opted for retirement, because his right knee injury did not recover and because Arredondo had been no longer a champion after losing to Roger Mayweather in his first defense.

The following anecdote shows the strength of his intention.

2007

Since March 14, 2007, he is the representative of the Teiken Promotions that is a relevant organization to the Teiken Boxing Gym to which he had belonged during his career as a boxer.

The main protagonist of the manga Hajime no Ippo, Makunouchi Ippo is loosely based on Hamada.
