[Lots of changes - Sasaki Vs Yamauchi is off, Yamauchi pulled out, Yang Yang Li Vs Tsuchiya is off - Visa issues, Tsuchiya will spar with Shuichiro Yoshino instead, Leshan Li Vs Shohei Omori is off - Omori will face Danny Tampipi instead)

 

Bout 1 - Akira Hoshiyumi (1-0, 1) Vs Geon Kim (0-2)

 

1-A bit of a nothing round, but it's clear that poor ol Kim is gonna struggle here...

 

2-Korean guy down, get the feeling Hoshiyumi isn't going to need MUCH longer but the kid needs some polishing after this..nice aggressive fighter but his overhand lefts are very loopy and he got too close to Kim at times when trying to close the show, credit to Kim he sees out the round!

 

3-Kim has settled into the role of survivor, but is exhausted, his footwork is failing and a humane corner would pull him out (down by 4 points with a round left). He looks like he's hard enough...but of course....Korean spirit won't allow that....and he's coming out for round 4...

 

4-Hoshiyumi wanted the stoppage, chased it, got it. Referee stepped in when Kim was taking a beating in the corner.

 

Shunsuke Horii (4-5, 2) v Kazunori Yorimasa (4-6-3, 2) - 5 round Prize Fight
Rules for these "Prize fights" are different to usual. Fighters will be given a bonus for scoring an early finish. The earlier the win, the bigger the bonus. These rest of this card features this

 

1-Yorimasa looks the better boxer but Horii getting success on the inside when they do get close... Yorimasa round

 

2-Yorimasa bringing the pressure and winning the inside battles as well as the outside ones, Horii not being over whelmed as such but struggling to keep up with Yorimasa. Good fight back from Horii late in the round to be fair to the kid

 

3-Action becoming a touch sloppy now, both looking tired, Yorimasa up by 3 for me now.... don't get think either guy is getting a bonus

 

4-Another for Yorimasa, out working Horii...neither guy has been hurt so far

 

5-More of the same really

Horii celebrates, Yorimasa sits on his stool...Yorimasa announced as the winner, Horii congratulates him. Really wasn't that close or entertaining IMO. Neither guy had the power to add drama to the bout.

 

Bout 3 - Yuma Omine (0-1) v Taison Morishita (1-0)
Omine went 32-16 as an amateur and is promoted out of the Watanabe Gym
Morishita went 28-18 as an amateur and is promoted by Susumu Hanagata

 

1-This has started with more intent than the previous bout, both looking like they want to throw bombs. Omine has been down twice in the opening round, both ruled slips, Morishita pressing and pressuring through out, Omine doesn't like this intensity.

 

2-More of the same really, Omine really has no idea how to cope with the sweeping left hook and physicality of Morishita. Omine looks exhausted at the end of the round. Don't see Morishita as some star in the making (far too crude), but he's bossing this
