    He throws a lot of punches. His motor is insane. I thought Taguchi landed cleaner though. But then again I was definitely swayed by the crowd and commentators. They would react to everything Taguchi did and didn't really react when Budler landed flush. Anyways rematch probably will happen.

    114-113 Budler. Though that the best Taguchi could possibly get was a draw without the knockdown. He lost too many of the early rounds on work rate, despite landing many of the better single shots

    Impressive! Budler wins two world titles against a top fighter in that boxer's home country.

    Is Japan one of the safest havens in the world for fair scoring? I know they aren't perfect but man, they certainly seem to have plenty more honest to goodness fair shakes than most countries...

    Budler has always been underrated but this result truly shocked me.

    You're as reliable as any in this area. If you had it the same as all 3 judges then the cries of robbery from some are without merit.

    Indeed. Still to this day he gives us the scoop on the still obscure Asian scene, despite social media/modern internet it still would be a lot harder to keep up without his efforts!
