Comments Thread For: Hozumi Hasegawa Beats Burgos To Win Vacant WBC Belt

Good stuff! Hozumi definitely back!

[southpaw_07]

will he fight Gamboa now?

Nishioka vs Hasegawa.

Make it happen.

Who's the real emperor of Japan?

Hasegawa, to me, is one of the most skilled fighters out there. I've never seen a fighter who can double-up with their back hand so quickly and at the angles he's able to do it from. He's also got a great counter inside right-hook that he throws from an odd angle also. I'd love to see a rematch against Montiel. For the four rounds it went, it was pretty entertaining. Also would like to see a fight against Nishioka.

Would that be the biggest pro fight in Japanese history?

Not counting Tyson-Douglas.

Nice comeback by Hasegawa, I guess he isn't overhyped after all.

For boxing, probably. I'm not entirely sure how relevant boxing is in Japan, but Hasegawa and Nishioka have been at the top of their game and definitely making noise in their respective area in their Japanese boxing community (I don't know about the Japanese community as whole though).

Anything big with Koki Kameda would probably be the biggest as most Japanese households know them and their scandals.

That is an interesting fight though.

Kind of wild that Hasegawa suddenly went up t 126. I think he might have his hands full with some guys at 122 and they'd be great battles.

A lot of good Japanese and Thai fighters around the 122 and 126 range for him to have good fights with including Nishioka.

Hasegawa will definitely be back. Montiel just showed he was a special fighter that night.
