Kenshiro Teraji (寺地拳四朗 , Teraji Kenshiro, born 6 January 1992) , known professionally by his ring name Ken Shiro, is a Japanese professional boxer who has held the WBC light- flyweight title since 2017, and held the OPBF light-flyweight title in 2016.
On May 2017, Shiro faced WBC light flyweight world champion Ganigan López on his 10th professional fight. Shiro beat López by majority decision (115-113, 115-113, 114-114) in a closely contested fight.
On September 2017, it was announced that Shiro’s first defense would be against former world champion Pedro Guevara at the Ryōgoku Kokugikan.

The fight between Guevara and Shiro was set for 22 October 2017.

After the fight, Shiro called out Ganigan López for a rematch.
