    1 never knows in Japan + WBC "neural" officials...still, Sosa brings a strong chin, a pressure guy that can wear u down...still I think have the years caught up w/him, more than Yaegashi's punches will...he surprised many vs Segura, but I believe Sosa falls short...

      Anyone watching the undercard? This Japanese Olympic gold medalist is looking flat against a journeyman in his second pro fight.

        Wow the American Peterson was taking a savage beating in that last round. Should have been stopped a while before
