How good is Hozumi Hasegawa?

[BoomBoom]

I think very highly of him. He seems to be getting better and better and his power has really been coming through his last few fights. I would like to see him fight outside of Japan, but I dont see that happening, which is too bad because he is one of the best fighters in the world.

He's an outstanding talent. It's a shame he makes great money in Japan. So chances of him leaving are pretty slim. He just might have the fastest hands in Boxing. He's recently been sitting down more on his punches, adding more power to them. He's knocked out his last 4 opponents in 2 rounds or less. He's clearly the best Bantamweight out there. And has been for awhile

I've only had a chance to watch two clips, but he has a impressive straight left. That seems to be his money punch. In the two I saw he did strike as a bit of a one-handed fighter, but the sample size was so small that I don't really have any grounds to feel that way.

We should just be thankful Bilbo's not around for this thread, he'd have somebody new to spam about.

These are the new "Who is Harry Simon?" threads.

Hasegawa would be on almost everyones P4P list if he was more known. He's been on mine for his talent and potential for a while now.

Hasegawa is one of the best talents in boxing today, as VD said he's never going to leave Japan though. I trying to stream his fights whenever I can because his hand speed is crazy fast, if you get him to back up on the ropes he reacts like a prime JMM unleashing combinations, when he's coming forward his straight left strikes like a viper. All this and he is still noticably improving from fight to fight.
