~ Fernando Montiel stops Hozumi Hasegawa in 4 - New WBC/WBO BW Champ! ~

:deal This a real analysis right here.

 

Was not able to catch this fight.

Sounds like a great scrap for me. Did not expect Montiel's win, but I think one can not really discount a warrior's heart.

 

LMAO. Credability all gone for those losers...........

 

No Hasegawa is still the most skilled boxer in 118lbs and also around that division also very fast handspeed and decent pop but Montiel beat him in 4 by a tremendous double lefthook :deal
but he was not able to box with that guy..
great win however :thumbsup

 

Yeah I clicked it after I saw the results on Boxrec.. not sure why.. just habit.. didn't even see if it was a public poll or not.. neither do I care. Polls on message boards don't mean a damn thing.

People on ESB like to act like they are a genius when the get the **** right, but don't say **** when the get it wrong. Thing is in a lot of fights, you just don't know. I honestly thought Hasegawa would win on points, just for the fact I thought Montiel's best days were behind him.. but I'm a big fan of Montiel. I just thought he had lost a step (or 4)... and from the sounds of it.. he has.. he just was able to land a big shot and take advantage.

 

I voted after the fact like I do on every poll, IB. And you can't stop me. Muaahahahahahah

yep in the first
A shockwave of WBC bantam champ Hozumi Hasegawa’s annihilation by Mexican Fernando Montiel has extended as we now realize that the Japanese hero suffered a fracture on the jaw bone. It wasn’t produced by Montiel’s coup-de-grace, a devastating left hook, just prior to the 2:59 stoppage of the fourth but by an unrecognized punch during the opening session. The ex-champ reflected, saying “I began to feel an acute pain at the molar tooth in the first round when I took Montiel’s uppercut. I didn’t care and kept fighting. As the exam proved my jaw was broken, I realize it happened in the opening session.” He hurriedly returned to his native Kobe city and will undergo a surgery to fix it there. His manager/trainer Masato Yamashita strongly expressed his wish for a rematch with Montiel, though Hasegawa himself hopes to take a rest and consider what to do. Before his surgery is done, they will make a final decision on the dethroned champ’s future.

who's next for montiel

 

Hopefully Hasegawa.

And hopefully the next poll is left open-ended without a close date so I can continue to expose suckas after the results come in.

 

Disturbing to read accounts of this fight. Not so much in this thread. But so far I haven't seen anyone put into words what actually transpired. Hasegawa was completely having his with with Montiel before the stoppage. That left hook is as close to being a "lucky punch" as I have seen in recent times. I give Montiel all the credit in the world, probably wanted him to win going in - but facts are facts. Hasegawa was blatantly superior as a boxer as well as a fighter in the ring that night. Exciting outcome though, and excellent show leading up to the finish.
