    You're wrong, unlike you I actually had a long nap and I'm alert as hell right now.

    lol he couldn't stop a shot Viloria who was crushed by Chocolatito. Kosei would beat his ass. We'll see those, I was referring to Kimura anyways not Kosei. Kosei wipes this division out.

    He's the golden boy of CBC, his promoter is a big name in boxing in Nagaoya...though most of the boxing industry in Japan is in Tokyo, a win for a Tokyo fighter is generally the norm when it comes to judges...however Japan continues it's trend of having international judges, Zoltan Enyedi 116-112 | Danrex Tapdasan 115-113 | Don Trella 114-114

    Any chance we can have our opinions without being called dickheads.....I left school a long time ago and can quite happily debate without name calling

    Who Kimura or Kosei? If you think he'd stop Kosei based off the Higa fight you're in for a rude awakening. I've said for ages Higa is overrated af and lacks solid fundamentals. I said this when people were hyping this kid up. Kosei is on a completely different level than Higa. Higa has way more power but that's it. Now Rosales could stop him but that's a bet I'd be willing to take if you're down.

    Tanaka isn't a pure boxer. He's more similar to Chocolatito than a slick boxer. He gets hit but he lands the far more effective shots. His side to side movement in this fight was brilliant, though the 12th round was an awful one for him. I don't really know what his plan was.

    U said he blocked almost everything he threw.....I'm making the point that his face tells a different story. Go watch the fight again and tell me u think ur man was robbed......personally I never seen it that way at all. I've never watched these fighters before......so had no allegiance to either fighter

    I highly doubt Tanaka is as sturdy as Viloria even now, and I'm not basing that off of power, I'm basing it on styles, Dalakian is an absolute nightmare for this kid.

    To be totally honest I scored it 115-113 Tanaka, but I scored the 4th to Tanaka which could have gone either way. A draw is well within reason here. Though I also scored the last 3 for Kimura, and the 11th & 12th were also razor close and could have also went either way, just saying I wouldn't be mad over a draw here.

    But once again standing ****ing ovation for both men, fight of the weekend at the very least :clap2::clap::clapclap:

    Tanaka. Rosales is bigger and has tremendous power. Tanaka looked good today but he left himself a bit too open and got caught by several huge bombs. If Rosales can land that amount of bombs on Tanaka i am not so sure if he can survive that. On the other side i think Tanakas power is overrated. Can't see him stopping Rosales tbh. I would pick Rosales over Tanaka right now all day all night.
