Comments Thread For: Kazuto Ioka Fends Off Determined Francisco Rodriguez, Defends WBO Title In Tokyo

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Kazuto Ioka survived the toughest test of his current title reign. The only male boxer from Japan to win titles in four weight divisions, Ioka fended off a determined Francisco 'Chihuas' Rodriguez to retain his WBO junior bantamweight title. Judges Yuji Fujuchi (116-112), Nobuto Ikehara (116-112) and Michiaki Someya (116-112) were unanimous in awarding the fight to Ioka in an entertaining twelve-round main event Wednesday at Ota-City General Gymnasium in Tokyo.

I scored it a draw but knew that Ioka was going to get the decision. Nice fight nonetheless.

Hey I tried to help people and even posted instructions how to stream it legit with Yoitv free trial. I was going to make a thread about it a few days before the fight but it probably would have been a ghost town like all my threads. Was a pretty good fight though and I also scored it a draw.

IMO the judges were biased, fight Ancajas or Nietes to prove yourself.

The schedule here and on ESPN is garbage. Use the boxrec schedule. It has the most extensive list of scheduled fights:

Right? Hell I told EffPandas about it two weeks ago, and was outside with my son this morning when he texted me asking if I was watching it.. This **** got ZERO promotion or coverage on boxing sites. Shame, I hear it was an incredible fight.

He did fight Nietes. Nietes got a controversial split decision win, then dropped the title to avoid the rematch.

Agree that Ioka should either unify with Ancajas or rematch Nietes
