Hiroto Kyoguchi born 11/27/1993 is a 5'3 ½ Minimumweight with a 9-0 7 KO's. Born in and fighting out of Izumi, Osaka Prefecture, Japan. I frequently do threads on up and coing prospects, but often I don't truly believe in them, that's not the case with this one. I think Kyoguchi is not only a genuine prodigy, but I think he's not only capable of hanging with the kings of his division, Wanheng Menayothn TBE and Unanimous Decision CP Freshmart, but he's the man to beat their ass, and I mean as of right now, without hesitation I'd pick Kyoguchi to beat both by KO. He's the fastest to win a title in Japan's history, snagging his first title during his debut year as a pro, and already 10 fights in he has wins over Argumedo, Buitrago, Refugio and Miyazaki, all pretty impressive scalps to have on one's resume, while not quite as impressive as the Monster Inoue's at this stage, for Strawweight, an okay but not great division, its pretty good. I think he's got the build to move up to Fly, and maybe even Super Fly eventually, although I think he'd be pushing his luck. He's a natural, and somewhat Inoue like, he cuts off the ring beautifully, is slick and can slip, parry and block shots while walking his opponents down, has a solid jab, and throws beautiful a spiteful combinations to the head and body, and he's taken a few shots here and there, and seems to have a good chin. Truly one to watch, and one of the best things Japan has going for it, alongside Inoue and Higa. Check Out Little Dynamite Hiroto in Beastmode Blasting through his competition left and right.

Hadn't seen the thread, have seen all but 1 or 2 of his fights. He first caught my eye with his win vs Miyazaki on a live boxingraise card. He had his test bout at the same time as Masataka Taniguchi, he's another to keep an eye on. Fantastic stable Watanabe seem to be developing for their next generation in the post Uchiayama-Kono era
