And either guy could hurt the other at any moment, which meant every punch had that tension. I love fights like that.

Very little lateral movement as well.

This was a really good fight. A lot of crisp punching, pin-point accuracy and some spectacular timing on display.

Now I'm watching Hasgawa/Ruiz...the ref took a ****ing point off for a head-clash?!? WTF?

Can't wait to watch the fight tomorrow, I downloaded it yesterday but couldn't see it because I was too busy at work.

You are 100% correct and my story has been amended. I forgot that BScene had Yamanaka and Moreno #1 and #2. The following graf has been added to reflect:

With the win, Yamanaka also gains recognition as the World (lineal) bantamweight champion, as he and Moreno were the top two ranked boxers in the division in the BoxingScene.com ratings. The feat establishes a lineage in the division for the first time since 1988, ending the longest active gap in the sport (28 years) between genuine world champs.

There was also a whole graph at the end of the pre-report card before the (wrong) pick. Still could be some debate but I don't think there is a serious case against Yamanaka as the true champ right now.

I hav'nt seen this brought up. Should'nt this of established Yamanaka as the lineal and Ring champ as well?

Did anyone catch that Rd9 exchange between Hasegawi and Ruiz? Around the 1:15 mark I think it was? Holy crap.
