Hozumi Hasegawa - Ledg! Fact.

[Fenster]

Earlier today the old boy (in boxing terms) pulled off a big upset by forcing Hugo Ruiz to quit at the end of the 9th taking his WBC superbantam title. Makes him a three weight champ for what it's worth.

Only seen the 9th where Hasegawa was shook but came roaring back.

To put it in context - His chances were rated similar to Brook's last week.

Never seen him fight but I remember a few years back when he had a nice win streak going and many people thought he was going to get into the p4p discussion. Then he lost and we all forgot about him.

Thanks Fender.

Yeah I used to like Hasegawa.

[p4pking]

Did anyone see Moreno get stopped in his rematch with Yamanaka yesterday? Very good shoot out while it lasted, for the WBC bantam strap. I don't know if Hasegawa would still make that weight or if Yamanaka would move up, but it would surely be a big fight in Japan, and another clash of lefties.

Quality from the Jap. What a belting 9th round.

[p4pking]

Great fight and finish, that 9th was terrific indeed.
