    Round 1

    Hard left jabs by Sasaki, alternately throwing from his front hip or a high guard. Sakai backing up a few steps, braking, then leaning in with a lumpy double jab up top followed by a right hand downstairs. Sasaki ripping hard left hooks on the liver and launching can opener rights at the head while pressing forward. Nice reflexive defense by Sasaki while pressuring, swaying above the waist to slip punches. Body jab by Sakai.

    10-9 Sasaki

    Round 1 Sakai 10-9, close

    Jin out aggressive as per usual, but walking onto stiff jabs from Sakai to the head and body. Jin trying to get his jab on track, Sakai lands some nasty shots to the body. Jin starts working his body, Sakai lands several counters then goes on the offensive when Jin backs off. Jin looking a bit more apprehensive now.

    Round 1 Sakai 10-9, close
    Round 2 Sasaki 10-9

    Jin out fast again, looping in some wild hooks. Sakai and Jin trading with horrific body shots. Sakai landing some counter uppercuts. Jin pins him along the ropes, lands a left hook upstairs which rocked Sakai. Jin finding a home for his jab more and more. Which is popping his head up in the air. Jin now walking him down, landing some nasty hooks to the head, Sakai backs him off with a right. Jab contest now, Jin beating him to the punch.

    Suntory makes canned cold-brew coffee now? Wonder if it's better than their whiskey.

    Round 2

    Sasaki very aggressive whipping hard left hooks up top. Sakai patiently taking a sliding backward step and placing a jab in the face and starting to build into counter combinations. Sasaki eating some uppercuts when he posts up in front of Sakai after blasting his way in with power shots, but still landing heavier.

    10-9 Sasaki

    20-18 Sasaki

    I dunno why they keep saying Sakai only has three KO's when boxrec claims he has 15 KO's in his career.

    Yeah Boss coffee is reasonably popular down here. Not my cup of joe but I’m a bit of a coffee snob.

    Round 2 Sasaki 10-9
    Round 3 Sasaki 10-9

    Jin looping in double barrel hooks to the head. Backing him up with left hooks to the head and ribcage. Persistent jab from Jin. Sakai lands a few uppercuts and a few hooks up top. Jin thn fires off a barrage of hooks to the body. Then some one twos. Vicious hooks to the temples of Sakai. Sakai jabbing, but looking more and more lethargic. Sasaki body attack getting nastier and nastier.

    2-1 Sakai, btw. Thought he controlled the first with the jab and he couldn't miss with the uppercut in the third.
