    New Year's Even in Macao, with the vacant WBO super flyweight title up for grabs. Whatever the outcome, a new 4-division champion will be crowned. :deal:

    Ioka has only been defeated once professionally, via split decision, by Amnat Ruenroeng in 2014. Nietes has also lost just once professionally, also via split decision, a decade prior to Ioka vs. Ruenroeng at the hands of Franky Angkotta (who missed the light fly limit and came in two full weight classes bigger than Nietes) in 2004.

    IB Funfact, apropos of nothing: Nietes has more draws on his record (5) than Ioka has clean traditional knockouts (4 - that is, excluding "TKO") :nusenuse:

    I thought Ioka deserved the nod in the Ruenroeng fight, so to me, he is undefeated.

    I think Ioka will outwork Nietes to a competitive but clear UD, both are precise and great at finding openings, both have great chins, so volume will be the difference maker here.

    Looks like i once again will be alone on my crusade. **** it. Nietes will embarass ioka like how ruenroeng did.

    You could argue neither has ever been cleanly defeated before, and in Nietes' case he was fighting a super fly (while himself abiding the light flyweight limit)

    Actually, I thought he was against Palicte, and I scored it for Aston by a point. But yeah, neither have been cleanly beaten, and quite frankly, your draw pick wouldn't shock me at all.

    We need to get ahold of whoever that dude was that was in charge of the Youtube stream for Kimura vs Tanaka, so he can set one up for this one :deal:

    The Tanaka vs Kimura stream was set up as CBC can't be steamed through legal means. TBS can, so suspect a similar deal won't be set up, but something else might be

    Nietes is an 8/11 favorite.

    Attention: the whole card (INCLUDING the Mthalane vs. Sakamoto fight, which none of the Asian television broadcasts - qqlive in China, TBS in Japan, nor ABS-CBN PPV in the Philippines - are showing live) will air on SuperSport9 in Hekkie Budler's home country of South Africa.

    ...if that information helps anyone in any way. :nusenuse:
