Hasegawa vs Montiel on 4/30, who you got?

[JazMerkin]

Great win for Montiel, and that was an excellent fight while it lasted, although I personally felt that Cole could have given Hasegawa a chance with the round so close to the end. VD is right though, Hasegawa needs to move up, the fact he's talking about going straight to 126 says it all about the difficulty he's been having making weight

You're right I remember reading a few months back that he was planning to move to 126. Boiling down to 118 for years ain't good for your body especially at 29 years old.

Still a good win though for Montiel.

Definitely a good win for FM. Hasegawa was doing what I thought he would in the 3rd, and he was catching Montiel! It is also good to see a mini megafight like this happen with an elite boxer and a long standing champion.

Bring on Donaire!

Donaire will duck him again

Donaire has been a big disappointment in terms of taking on elite opposition. It's been 3 years since his win over Vic, would have thought he would at least fight a top 3 guy at 112 or 115 by now.

And he's an US based fighter that's promoted by Arum, surely he could have been in the ring with at least another top caliber opponent?

Watching the stoppage from a different angle, Hasegawa was trying to cover his chin with his right forearm, he was a bit unlucky that his left was trapped.

great, surprising win by montiel! i thought he had a chance but didn't think it would end this early. he beat a great tactician and warrior in hasegawa. this by far is montiel's greatest career victory and cements him into the HOF. a montiel vs. darchinyan or donaire fight would be tops. also a fight with the WBA and IBF champion would be great as well.
