Awesome! Thanks! I’ll check it it out in a little bit.

 

Apart from KD Saludar was getting owned on the inside fighting stuff. Another one that can't bang inside for team Pinas. One area Filboxer need to improve on.

114-113 Saludar; Official scorecards were far too wide. The decision could have easily went Yamanaka's way, it was that close. Saludar's spectacular boxing clinic in the 12th clinched it on my card. Turning point was obviously the knockdown. Beautiful right hand for the knockdown. Yamanaka couldn't have opened up at a worse time. BANG! Yamanaka was just out-hustling Saludar in the first half with his activity and inside game. Yamanaka was still able to land to the body following the knockdown but Saludar's harder shots was edging out the rounds IMO. Could have went either way. Definitely wasn't a clear Saludar win like the official scorecards indicate. Congrats to the new Filipino world champ!
