We don't know the politics involved. It's kind of a big deal to have an undefeated 3 division world champ who has only had a dozen fights.
No, I am, its just the looks of it, 3rd champ in a week gets his strap taken from him by the "money" guy. Its nauseating.
Yeah he blocked almost everything.....shame it was with his face!! No idea what the points score was but I would have thought it was fairly clear cut
The fight was held in Nagoya and Tanaka living there so no surprise that he won a close fight on the cards.
Yeah hopefully he fights the Ukranian or South African for a title. Winnable fights for him. Kosei is just too good. Rosales would be a crazy fight too.
I get it, and I’m with you on the first two, and I get that the fatigue of it wears on us as fans, but turning this into that narrative isn’t fair to Tanaka who legitimately won this and showed tremendous promise. Was it a wide dominant victory? No, but it definitely wasn’t a robbery
Dalakian decapitates him, its not winnable in the least, Artem is elusive as **** and will smash Tanaka's head in.
Think the draw is overly generously on that judges part. The other 2 you could argue over but definitely the right man got the decision
Right guy got the nod. That's all that matters! Although it should have been UD, that was the only robbery today.
I disagree, the Champ never gets the benefit of the doubt anymore it seems. It was really close, and just by chance. **** it, I'll watch it back right now.
