    R1: 10-8 Soto

    Takayama all over the place a few times. Soto tagged him. No knockdowns, still a 10-8 for me.

    I just wish to clarify

    When I said "Takayama is going to shock the world"


    What I meant was "Takayama is going to survive a round".... "survive a round"


    You must have misheard me. Anyway I was correct.

    1. Soto 10-9

    Actually close for a while but can't ignore Takayama getting buzzed.

    I hope he survived for a few rounds or we will have to listen to Ak and Barack for 45 minutes before the main event

    I was afraid of this; too old and out of the ring too long to be in there with Soto.

    The size difference just looks to be too much.
    Takayama has nothing to keep Soto off him, Soto is still pretty crude and one dimensional in his approach though

    Takayama doesn't have power to keep Soto honest.
