Re: Daigo Higa
That was a hell of an upset (Rosales around a 10/1 shot), even though with hindsight the weight clearly killed Higa and Rosales was being underestimated. Kal Yafai beat Rosales too early in their careers (he tweeted congrats to Rosales, obviously gave him a little boost), however, it really was an eye-opener for Selby's win over him, I made the point in this thread Selby's length and awkwardness might cause Higa problems.
Incidentally this show (Murata headlining against Blandamura) got a whopping 17 million viewers on Japanese TV. 17 million!!! Numbers that the US/UK will never come close to seeing again, and yet we have arrogant fans on here that demand these fighters "prove" themselves in the States or make a name for themselves in the UK.
