Prediction: Junto Nakatani by Stoppage

Result: Junto Nakatani by Stoppage

This was a solid unification that started off in such exciting fashion. Both guys came out swinging and it was Nakatani who predictably did the more damage. Nshida was boxing really well but that eye took him out of the fight when he couldn’t see the punches coming. Nakatani is so scary when he unloads with combinations and is deserving of a top 5 pound for pound ranking based off skill alone.
