Comments Thread For: Montiel Broke Hasegawa's Jaw, Surgery is Scheduled

[Bushidō]

4 rounds won by Hasegawa if not that lucky punch????? To me, MOntiel doesn't prove anything yet. NOnetheless, cong**** to him because a win is a win!

They both weren't really landing too much the first few rounds

Yeah, it was a lucky punch, but

it was a punch.

It was only a matter of time before this was going to happen. Hasegawa was taking on more than he can handle.

There is no way he would survive in the US. Plus after a shattered jaw, his confidence is going to be suspect. It will take him a while to take those big fights especially after something like this. This injury is no small cut.

He was talking about going over seas to fight, in Thailand, that would have ended in disaster. If he wants to step up, he has to get an American trainer/teacher. He has to leave Japan. But thats not going to happen and neither is he going to be champ again.
