Thread: Toshiaki Nishioka

Who do you think is the better fighter: prime hozumi hasegawa or Nishioka?

Also, he has a chance to face the winner of nonito-vazquez in June.



Assuming nonito wins, what are nishioka's chances of beating him?

Prime for prime I would take Hasegawa

I'd say Nishioka, I know Hasegawa defeated Veerapol twice but Nishioka fought him in his prime

Nishioka has the higher ring IQ but overall, I think a prime Hasegawa is the superior fighter.

I kind of feel bad for Hasegawa cuz he was really elevating his game.. everything was going smooth for him until he ran into Montiel.. that loss was tough for him, kind of loss that demoralizes a fighter. Dude was expected to put on a show in front of his crowd, only to get knocked out in 4.. devastating..

I would have loved to see him face Nishioka at 122 but that's the exact reason why he skipped the 122 division. He didnt want to face his countryman..

Hasegawa is a bad bad man...
