Prediction: Yoshiki Takei by Stoppage
Result: Yoshiki Takei by Points
Absolutely mental fight to put as the real co-main (to give Shingo time for both brothers), but it ended up actually being a fun fight. Takei looks incredibly shot after that last stoppage loss, and Wang came in and did well. This is one of those fights where it was fun because it was somehow well matched despite being proposed as a comeback easy fight. Boos poured in as Takei was announced as the winner, but I thought he did enough despite looking pretty bad. Had a good laugh at some of the shots he was taking for sure.
