Great fight. Thanks for sharing. Tanaka is faster and more athletic but he drops his right hand A LOT. He exposes his chin even when he goes in for a close fight. That counter left hook by Ioka has been there all night. Almost every knock down was a left hook. Credit to Ioka for staying patient, waiting to time counters every time Tanaka comes in.
Ioka had him figured out by the 5th. Very good and subtle defense. At first glance it seemed Tanaka was hitting him but if you watch closely many of those hits were not clean and missed. Some may say the stoppage was early but I agree with the stoppage. That left was landing at will. Saved him from further damage. Hes still young, live to fight another day
Gran espectáculo. De kazuto, cómo mexicano que soy, me gustaría verlo vs el gallo o unas ves que termine con chocolatito. O con Rey Martínez. Se bien buenas peleas. Saludos desde Tamaulipas México.
Thank you VERY much for this Kind of Quality ! I am impressed 😜... it was an excellent fight, I mostly remember Ioka because of his Reveco fight, years ago.. i hope he continues to do Well in the future but i would still pick either Estrada or Roman over him... i hope to be prove wrong !
@@InternacionalBoxing i am not very familiar with this weight class i must admit apart from some fights, would you give him a chance against Ancajas or to stay as a top 3 fighter in his weight ?
They some cheating bastards, that was the first time he showed pain the whole fight. Kazuto woulda lost had it gone on. They know that. They need to ban Japanese boxing
Bro you mad retarded. He was dropped TWICE. He was way behind on the scorecards even if he came back, he still wouldve lost on points. No need to take anymore unnecessary punishment. He was hurt and likely wouldve been slept because ioka is a technician. Say you dont know shit bout boxing with saying it…
