Fujioka gets it, first right decision all day lol Next up Ken Koibuchi (6-4, 5) v Tetsuya Kondo (4-2, 3)
Ken Koibuchi (6-4, 5) v Tetsuya Kondo (4-2, 3) Koibuchi red gloves, Kondo blue 1-Nice body shots by Koibuchi who I'd say is the favourite (ignore the records), Kondo backing up a lot more than Koibuchi. 10-9 Koibuchi
2-Koibuchi is still the one pressing forward, nothing really coming from Kondo at all here through the first 2 minutes, come on fella throw something, oh he does, and then he takes a right hand, really not enough from him at all Expected explosive action here but...nope...nope a dull fight through 2
3-And now we get the explosive action we were expecting! Kondo down! Koibuchi going all out for the finish, Kondo in survival mode, Koibuchi doesn't get paid for over-time and he's raining leather down on Kondo, Kondo begins to respond and he seemed to temporarily stop Koibuchi in his tracks, Koibuchi though realises his man is still hurt and turns it on again, Kondo backed on to the ropes, he frees himself, pressure keeps coming, Kondo got CHEEEN! 2 massive left hands from Koibuchi, and a right, a big right from Kondo and Koibuchi saved by the bell!
4-Pace slowed off, likely with Koibuchi being being gassed and Kondo still feeling the effects of the last round, body shot from Kondo, Koibuchi backing off, huge counter right by Koibuchi, and Kondo walks through it, Kondo wobbled by a follow up right, uppercut from Koibuchi, Koibuchi looks like he's damn near punched himself out as the referee splits them, a big right through the guard from Koibuchi, a huge right from Kondo
5-Kondo on the offensive now and he's trying to walk down Koibuchi and unleash uppercuts, Koibuchi has this in the bag if he can avoid a fire fight, Koibuchi with a good body shot, both unleashing big right hands, Koibuchi happy to spoil and hold when he needs to, big body shot from Kondo, Kondo's round. He needs a BIG final round though to turn this around.
6-Tempo has slowed, think Kondo has accepted he can't stop Koibuchi and is happy to see out the bout. Koibuchi still looks spent from the huge round 3, Kondo's feet are too slow to get him into range and he's now just following Koibuchi, as I say that he wobbles Koibuchi, 15 seconds..10...and Koibuchi to the bell. Very close fight on a round by round basis, but Koibuchi gets it by a point on my card
Kondo got a majority decision 57-57, 57-56, 57-56 can't complain too much there... I guess Next up: Jin Sasaki (8-0, 7) vs Tatsuya Miyazaki (9-13-1, 9) Won't need judges here! Before then we get a face of between Kai Chiba and Haruki Ishikawa who fight on December 26th ...won't need judges there either!
Jin Sasaki has that "IT" factor, he's charismatic, young, good looking, a huge puncher, think he probably should be sticking at 140lbs and not 147 but what ever, he gets it and he understands that he's the star of the show... He's the one people are tuning in for, he's the one that they will be talking about afterwards. Second show like this he's been on
1-Sasaki coming forward, Miyazaki realising "**** me, this kid has rock hands" and backs off, they go close up and a hook from Sasaki stiffens Miyazaki's legs, Miyazaki showing his toughness, oh wait, huge right and down goes Miyazaki, a left hook shakes Miyazaki, body shots from Sasaki, and more body work, hooks, Miyazaki trying to fight back, he's feeling every one of these shots, a big right, and another left hook, an uppercut hurts Miyazaki, a follow up, Miyazaki holds on to the ropes and it's waved off!
Sasaki will return December 26th Vs Aso Ishiwaki, Japanese Youth title fight **** yes! Yes! YES! Ito Vs Mishiro under-card WAAAAAAARRRRR!
