    Yeah he beat a 33 tear old nakatani who had already lost to loma and teo. Still a decent win but nothing special. Doesn't belong in the ring with shakur.

    You mean, he was beaten by one of the P4P best in the ****ing sport in Lomachenko? What a scrub! You do know that a ton of people including myself, IB and several other posters thought Lopez got a gift against Nakatani right? And that it's seen as a controversial loss. Regardless, he easily gave Lopez his stiffest test up to that point and made him look horrible at times. Sure, maybe Nakatani had seen better days, but to beat him down and drop him several times even now is impressive. Yoshino is a very solid opponent for his debut in another division, and shouldn't be written off easily. He has a very sturdy beard, and is undaunted by his opponents power, so Stevenson's lack thereof, could ultimately be Shakur's undoing here.

    Let us also not forget the absolute brutality that Yoshino unleashed on former Herring opponent Masayuki Ito.

    Isn't this clashing with the Matchroom DAZN Jesse Rodriguez / Akhmadliev card ?

    Why bring up his age? Such an odd thing to do, when Nakatani was 32 at the time of the Loma fight.

    Yoshino is the typical unknown Japanese boxer who has fought thought and experienced opponents since his debut.
    Yoshino beat Nakatani and Ito in an impressive manner and he belongs in the ring with any top lightweight.

    You know why @Forza is discrediting Yoshino. If Loma was fighting Yoshino instead dude would be singing a diff tune.
