RBR - Dynamic Glove Special - Junto Nakatani Vs Giemel Magramo

1-Tatsuyoshi the bigger and stronger looking man, but Imamura the quicker and more skilled man. Not too much happened, but it did seem clear that the edge in skills for Imamura is going to be an issue

 

2-Tatsuyoshi being backed up time and time again, he doesn't seem to have much of an answer for Imamura's intelligent footwork and southpaw stance. Lovely stuff at times from Imamura who is full of confidence.

Ah **** clash of heads with about 3 seconds left, Tatsuyoshi taken to doctor and it's over -_-

 

About 20 mins to the main event

*clears throat*
It's....time!

Magramo coming out to some Western music (as in Cowboys and Indians western - The Good the The Bad the Ugly theme tune?) with a cowboy hat.

 

Referee is Nobuto Ikehara, probably best known for his 2008 bout with Volodymyr Sydorenko. I believe this is his first world title bout of any kind (as a ref!), but he's done regional and domestic fights, tends to let them fight on the inside, as he did recently in Akui Vs Fujikita!

 

1-Nakatni taking centre ring, using his long leavers to get the jab out, Magramo biding his time, neither taking risks, a lot of mutual respect and caution here, Magramo comes in and takes a left up close, Nakatani starting to open up just a tough, Magramo struggling with range but does land a body shot, Nakatani tags Magramo and he's hurt! Nakatani going for the kill, Magramo hurt again, and holds, he's seen out the storm, or has he, Nakatani with a left and he backs Magramo up.

It's not just the size of Nakatani that's the problem, but the fact he's fast and a lefty!

 

2-Magramo getting inside straight away here, and he eats some leather for rushing in again, huge body shot from Nakatani, a right cross from Magramo, and a left from Nakatani, and another from Nakatani as Magramo rushes in, and a body shot from Nakatani, as mentioned ref letting them fight inside - should suit Magramo but he takes a rib buster up close, and another body shot from Nakatani, more body work from Nakatani,

 

3-
More work up close, one thing Nakatani has that goes under-rated is his excellent work inside, Magramo walking forward and not throwing much, don't think he was expecting Nakatani to be as good up close, good shots at range from Nakatani as Magramo comes in

 

4-
Big body shot from Magramo early, he's just rushing forward with no thought process behind his work, nice uppercuts by both, a right up top from Magramo gets Nakatani's attention, body shot from Nakatani, another right from Magramo, uppercuts from Nakatani, a body shot, and Magramo forced to hold on, another big Nakatani body shot, 1-2 from Nakatani

Credit to Magramo he's tough and having some moments, ...but they are few and far between

 

5-
Nakatani still in total control, he's winning the battled up close and at range, Magramo eating uppercuts up close, and taking punishment on his way out, double uppercut from Nakatani, and a body shot, and another, and a third, another Nakatani body shot, one more for good measure, Magramo will be pissing blood tomorrow!
