Result: Yoshiki Takei by Points
This fight was a lot of fun and was competitive but it wasn’t close in the cards. The commentary crew were saying it could’ve went either way but I just can’t see that at all. It wasn’t the most skilled display from both guys especially defensively but it was one that I quite enjoyed. Takei is the weakest champion at bantamweight in my opinion but at only 10 fights in he’s still very impressive and has a lot of room to improve.
