Akira Yaegashi vs. Roman Gonzalez & Naoya Inoue vs. Samartlek RBR

its extremely flawed

e.g. they had hopkins number 1 at lhw before the shumenov fight but because the shumy fight was a SD and not a UD, he dropped to number 1

 

If Gonzalez rematches Estrada, then beats Ruenroeng, he will definitely be top 3 P4P.

 

3? ****, if Mayweather has retired by then (only two fights left on Showtime contract, so possible) he could be the best in the world.

 

Didn't see the fight, but apparently, Yaegashi showed heart.

Though really, anyone who steps in the ring has more courage than most of us ever will.

 

Two hours later and I finally got to see it. Yaegashi went kamikaze and Roman is a special talent. Fantastic fight.

 

That is a big understatement. He showed courage the likes of which is rarely seen in the prize ring.

 

:thumbsup

 

How do you think a Gonzalez-Rigondeaux fight goes?

 

Akira's last stand.

Gave it his all, went out on his shield pretty much.

Kinda sad to see but Gonzalez is really that good.

 

Ryo Matsumoto is ANOTHER Ohashi prospect who was tipped for big things. In 2010 he won an amateur title in same tournament as Naoya and won 4 major domestic titles whilst unning up a record of 53-3 (39) in the unpaid ranks.

His professional signing with Ohashi was met with a full blown party to celebrate his signature. His skills were evident from his test bout where he managed to claim a B licence having managed to impress against Ryuji Hara.

He debuted on the Uchiyama/Solis, Caballero/Hosono card and has since been matched carefully.

Last time out he beat multi-time title challenger Hiroyuki Hisataka in the toughest bout of his career and has since been moved towards a title bout.

VERY tall guy for his weight, when he turned pro boxingnews.jp reported him as being 173cm (5'8") and back then he was still very young and still filling out.

Matsumoto and the Inoue's are the gems in the Ohashi gym crown

 

Top 25? They don't have him in their top 100.

Broner & Bundrage > Gonzalez, or so their computerized point system reckons

 

noooo akira!!!

 

Not on the same level. The Sabillo fight proved that. There's a reason he hasn't fought in almost a year's time.

 

I think I scored the Buitrago-Sabillo fight in favor of Sabillo. Buitrago is OK, but nothing to get excited about.
