Upset alert in Japan tonight for sure.

I really find it hard to believe Kenbun Torres is one gut. He's taking a six round split decision against a scrub then putting Reymart Gaballo down in one round.

This is clearly just a shared passport 4-5 different tiny Mexican fighters are using to fight in Japan.

 

ALBRIGHT UD. RAMIREZ TKO. CARMONA TKO. BAYSANGUROV TKO.

 

The Carmona - Girleanu is a weird fight. Carmona has been fighting at 122 while Girleanu's most recent bout was at 108. Carmona has already fought twice in the last six weeks.

Nevertheless, Carmona-UD

 

Baysangurov-KO, Ramirez-UD, Albright-UD

 

Torres won by SD. 95-94 for Cataraja and two scores of 96-93 Torres. Didn't watch the fight but not a surprising result. Cataraja is WBO #1 at 115 so obviously what a waste and an "upset" but Cataraja has been so unimpressive since the Edward Heno fight. Torres is quickly becoming a Filipino killer.

Round 3: 10-9 Salva

29-28 Shigeoka; better round for Salva, more aggressive and taking advantage of Shigeoka’s unimpressive defense. Competitive fight so far.

39-37 Shigeoka; kind of a meh round for both. Shigeoka just happened to do more.
