This guy can fight. He’s coming off a win over former 130 pound top-ten Masayuki Ito. Just moved up to 135 for that fight. He might not be part of the Fab Five yet, but this guy will make for a very tough mando in a couple years for somebody.
Excellent footwork, good head movement, and extremely fast hands.

Re: Hironori Mishiro
He's very talented, but lacks killer instinct and was wobbled Vs Magali. I'm high on him, excellent jab, but do I'm not sure he's #2 in Japan at either 130 (he's still the OPBF champion - not sure I'd tip him ahead of Ogawa or Saka) or 135 (Shuichiro Yoshino would be favoured IMO - however that's the bout he said he wanted if he beat Ito so... maybe one that isn't too far away..., and of course Nakatani).bobcatbox wrote: ↑03 Feb 2021, 09:30 This guy can fight.

I'm a fan, and I do enjoy watching him, but I think his flaws (lack of power, questionable chin, lack of killer instinct) will prevent him from reaching world level. His Watanabe gym stablemate at 135 (Shu Utsuki) might be worth a look too.
