- Venue:
- Ota City General Gymnasium in Tokyo
Prediction: Brian Norman Jr by Stoppage
Result: Brian Norman Jr by Stoppage
Norman absolutely destroyed Sasaki here. Took advantage of every defensive flaw that Sasaki had and put a beating on him. Sasaki to his credit stayed in the fight for as long as he could and was throwing bombs that occasionally landed. Norman is probably the best welterweight left after Boots left which makes it such a shame that he ducked that fight.
