RBR 2019 All Japan Rookie of the Year

Kameda, the cousin of the fighting trio, was a cocky ***** in the first round, but he's getting tagged in round 3

 

Maeda did it! He takes a split decision over Kameda

 

Super Featherweight time...Hyoga Taniguchi (3-2-1, 1) v Atsushi Iwasaki (5-3-3, 1)

 

That was competitive and the draw was fair, Taniguchi does however take the crown on the tie breaker rule

Next up Shinnosuke Saito (5-3, 2) v Kensuke Fujita (4-2-2)

 

Saito won a UD at 135
Yasutaka Fujita (5-0, 5) Vs Kodai Honda (4-1, 3)

Both men going all out for a KO here! WILD action, Honda down in the first minute, down again in the second minute, Fujita seems to have punched himself out a lil! HOLY ****

 

2-Fujita looks leggy and his intensity has gone, Honda on the front foot, Fujita hurt, Honda wades in, can't find the finish, Honda slowing

 

3-Fujita dropped at the end of round 3, this is carnage! Amazing stuff from Honda

 

4-Honda refuses to let off and down goes Fujita again, ref stops it, Fujita unhappy and pushes ref away, but he seemed to realise it was the right call and a heat of the moment reaction....

WOW JUST WOW! THAT WAS AWESOME

 

Yuta Ashina (4-1) v Homare Yasui (4-1-2, 4)

 

1-Ashina takes the round with his pressure, just
2-Yasui's had enough of the games and it looking to take his man out, but it fails, Ashina with blood trickling down from his nose is smiling and making it a dog fight...

 

3-Amazing! Ashina all over the place but survives a torrid final 30 seconds, Ashina had landed some awesome uppercuts earlier in the round

4-Ashina pressing, he's recovered from the shellacking at the end of round 3 and is looking to get back inside for those uppercuts, Yasui pushes him back but it's a momentary thing,

5-All action war! This is great stuff! Both men fighting as if the bout depends on it

 

Yasui takes the split decison

Final bout Takumi Yuzawa (3-0-1, 1) v Yasuyuki Kunimoto (3-0, 1)
