How popular is Ryota Murata in Japan?

[killakali]

Higa headlined the last event. FFS,

FFS dont you know anything? From ESPN: In the co-feature, Cristofer Rosales (27-3, 18 KOs), 23, of Nicaragua, knocked out Daigo Higa (15-1, 15 KOs), 22, of Japan, in the ninth round to win a vacant flyweight world title.

Just stop man. If Golovkin doesn't fight Canelo/Saunders/Derevyanchenko next he's cherry picking. Murata isn't a top 6 MW.

FFS you are clueless:
One title fight went as expected in Yokohama today, while another most assuredly did not.

In the main event, WBA Middleweight Champion Ryota Murata overpowered challenger Emanuele Blandamura in his first title defense, using his customary pressure to wear the Italian down before finishing him with a heavy right hand in the eighth round. ESPN has highlights and you can watch the full fight on YouTube here.

Murata (14-1, 11 KO) confirmed that he wants a crack at “Super” champ Gennady Golovkin, who has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to challengers at the moment. Blandamura (27-3, 5 KO) suffers his third knockout loss, having fallen to Billy Joe Saunders and Michel Soro in European title bouts.

You're discussing with someone who said that when Brook was weighed 30 and 7 days before the Golovkin fight, they cheated the scales to make Brook seem heavier.

This fight is definitely not as good as many of the other options for Golovkin. Just seeing if somebody is popular or not.......
