Did everybody catch Nishioka's one punch KO of Gonzalez for the WBC 122lb strap?

I agree Hozumi is very skilled and he's building up slot of momentum, I wanna see him become The Ring champ and fight some of the other big shots atnhis weight

 

Hasegawa is one hell of a fighter

Too bad we don't get to see more of him here.

(Jesus could the Japanese announcer have more of an orgasm there!)

 

It's sad..
I thought Nishioka could probably get some chance to fight Marquez by defeating Gonzalez.

I am not sure how good Molitor is anymore. He was knocked out by Caballero with devastating way.

 

Yea, he knocked out his opponent so quickly, Japanese audience couldn't get much satisfaction.

Hasegawa needs some exposure for overseas hardcore boxing fan.

I don't know what his manager is thinking. But by reading the comments of Hasegawa's manager about Nishioka's win, he seemed to be inspired.

 

yeah i doubt, he's probabbly only look for big money or big legacy fights right about now, and uhhh..i agree, he did get murked by Caballero, but he's still highly skilled and i'm sure he wants a world title, i think it would be an interesting fight, or even a fight with Ponce De Leon would work and probabbly make it on a US broadcast station like Showtime

 

Yea, I agree. Nishioka needs one more win against such fighters as Ponce De Leon to make himself marketable to the U.S.

You think Showtime pays more attention to lighter fighters than HBO?

 

yeah, and Showtime will show anybody with a decent amount of buzz regardless of weight, HBO doesn't,...they dont even have any entrance in Vasquez/Marquez or even guys like Nonito or Darchinyan

but i believe if Nishioka gets a good win over a guy like De Leon or Molitor even that Showtime would put him on air, as long as he fights outside of Japan atleast

but uhh, lets see what he does

 

yea, I strongly hope both Nishioka and Hasegawa take further steps to show themselves to overseas markets.
