- Date:
- Venue:
- Ariake Arena in Tokyo
Prediction: Seiya Tsutsumi on Points
Result: Draw
After a great first half of this fight Higa was easily on the path for a world title victory but Tsutsumi turned up the gears and nearly competed a monster comeback. That 9th round was insane and the best of the year so far. Tsutsumi and Higa have now fought twice with both fights being draws and while I also had it a draw, Tsutsumi was the only one with a legit argument for winning. Also the commentary was absolutely rubbish with the idiotic Mikaela Mayer talking nonsense all fight.
