RBR Dynamic Glove 559 -Sueyoshi Vs Takahata

Just starting now on G+

The main event is for the Japanese 130lb title which Ogawa vacated a few weeks ago around the same time he was ordered to negotiate a fight with Tevin Farmer. Sueyoshi, Ogawa's Teiken stablemate, will face Ribo Takahata for the vacant title. Prospects like Shuya Masaki and Kai Chiba will be in supporting bouts

To kick the action off Hikaru Mineta (0-0) will debut against Takuya Kurihara (0-1-1)

 

1-Mineta looks really promising, a deliberate, seruious fighter, switches well and throws with bad intent. Kiruhara the better pure boxer but has been put in his shell by the heavy hands and solid blows of the debutant

 

2-More of the same from Mineta, but some good spirit shown from Kurihara

3-Kurihara's best so far, he's boxing well on the move but has got a bloodied nose, the debutant perhaps showing some signs of tiredness

 

4-Kurihara appears to be the one with more in the tank, nice counter left hooks from Mineta, Kurihara's nose is bleeding quite badly now and although he's fighting back he's coming undone, big shots from Mineta, he's looking to leave a big impression, hard right, Kurihgara's left eye swelling shut, heavy and consistent blows from Mineta who has put this beyond all doubt. Dominant in rounds 1 and 4, clear winner in round 2.

39-37 for me, 40-36 from all 3 judges...no argument at all on that

 

Yamato Hata (3-1, 3) Vs Some Thai - Chatchai Phanlamueangee (claimed record is 8-3, 2) (opponent not listed on boxrec)

 

Only if I can watch it...

 

1-Yamato applying pressure, Thai is surving, very one sided round and it looks like Yamato will bounce back from his sole defeat sooner rather than later. Well done to the Thai for seeing out the round, but he's there to be stopped...

 

2-Good hard body shots from Yamato, Thai throwing some heavy but wild desperation shots, Yamato chipping away, Thai looks like he's going to be tougher than expected but Yamato is definitely getting to him, Yamato's controlled pressure was impressive, the Thai isn't making it too easy,a lot of good upper body movement from the visitor

 

3-Fast start by Yamato and Chatchai sees it out, Yamato continues the hunt,Chatchai tries fighting back and takes a big counter, does seem like Yamato is feeling the pace, Yamato turns it on late again and....Chatchai finally looks to be a broken man, though he does see out the round...just BIG finish for Yamato

 

Round 4-Yamato hunting a stoppage, Chatchai really firing out in desperation, Yamato continues going to work, referee can step in, he's letting it go a little longer....and now it's over...Chatchai's corner probably should have pulled him at the end of round 3 TBH

 

Ryota Toyoshima (7-1-1, 5) Vs Masaharu Kaito (5-2, 2)

 

Also heard it could be on the Kimura Vs Igarashi card, as a double header in November or December in Japan Igarashi and Ogawa are both Teiken fighters

1-A relatively quiet round, both guys looking to get control of the range and tempo but neither really having much success, Kaito's southpaw stance giving Toyoshima some problems.

2-Pace heads up, a counter by Kaito sends Toyoshima down, Kaito hunting, but Toyoshima fights back well

 

3-Better from Toyoshima who finally seems to be getting accustomed to the southpaw style of Kaito , he probably takes it, but at best he's only level
