    I look forward to some USA vs Japan destruction at 118 once Bam finishes cleaning out 115.

    er, until he gets to Nakatani. That’s the real USA vs Japan fight. Unsure how that one goes.

    Tenshin is a bit underrated, I expect him to keep developing

    Junto is clear and away the best of the pack.
    Tenshin is very clearly the worst of the pack.
    That leaves Takei, Nishida, and Tsutsumi. The Daigo Higa barometer tells us that Takei is the worst of these three, since he had the hardest time with Daigo, then Tsutsumi, then Nishida since Nishida beat Daigo the clearest.
    Nishida is the most consistent and him and Tsutsumi are neck and neck in terms of resume imo but Tsutsumi's win over Takuma is more impressive than Nishida's win over a past his best Manny Rodriguez.
    Personally, I think Tsutsumi is a bit better eye-test wise but it really depends on whether you prefer the fancy boxing of Nishida or the pressure and combinations of Tsutsumi. So, I have it:
    1. Junto
    2. Tsutsumi
    3. Nishida
    4. Takei
    5. Tenshin

    His ceiling is a lot higher than all those guys besides Junto. In fact I’d back him to beat all of them other than Junto right now
